From March: Visit to NASA

In March, Dave had to go to Hong Kong for two weeks, during spring break! It was lame. So we convinced my dad to come visit. While he was here, we went down to Houston to see his brother and to visit NASA. The girls loved it (especially Maddie) and if you ask them they will tell you they are going up to space when they grow up.

As seems to be the case lately, I have way more pictures from my phone than from my actual camera.

From February: Morning at the Aquarium

We are big aquarium fans, and finding ourselves with a free morning one Saturday in February, we headed for the Children's Aquarium at Fair Park, mostly because it was discounted and we had never been there. It was a nice, if small, aquarium. It took us just over an hour to check out the whole thing, which is a pretty good amount of time when your group includes 3 small children.

I love Christmas cards! I usually leave them up until January or February.

January 2013: Dave's Birthday

It's a really good thing that Dave has a birthday in January, because otherwise we would probably not  have any other pictures the whole month. We were happy to celebrate another year of Dad!
