On November 2nd, Caroline and I woke up bright and early (4 am!) and drove to Jacksonville, FL to catch a 12:30 flight to Houston! This was a very special part of our trip because we surprised my dad for his 60th birthday!!!
My mom picked us up from the airport and we hurried home before my dad returned from his weekly Sunday golf game. We hid in the guest room and waited until my mom came to get us. My dad was sitting on the back porch and Mom asked “Are you ready for your present?”, then she walked out carrying Caroline! He was surprised to say the very least! That night we went out to eat with MY grandparents, aunt and cousins. It was so much fun spending time with these wonderful family members who we don’t get to see very often! We were only in TX for 2 and ½ days, so I apologize to everyone we were not able to visit! We will be back at Christmas for a much longer stay!!

Me with my aunt Laurie (people often think we're sisters! I didn't have sister, so she pretty much was!!)
Caroline sat next to her great-grandpa, Pawpaw, at dinner and she was so facinated by him! She kept grabbing his arm, it was sooo cute!!!
