Thanksgiving Break - Part 1

*Our Thanksgiving break was so fun that it will be published in a 2 part series. The first part will cover our Louisiana and Houston section of the trip.

Matt and I were very lucky to have a full 9 days off for Thanksgiving (including the weekends).  The long break was overdue and very much needed.  We decided to do all of our traveling over Thanksgiving so we can relax at home at Christmas.  

Our trek started off in Louisiana so Evan could finally meet his great-grandparents from my side of the family.  My Grandma Winston had him smiling all day long!


"I love a good spoiling session from Grandma Winston."

We had to take the obligatory pictures on the front porch of my Grandparents' house.  It's a tradition of sorts.

We went to visit my Grandma Flores one afternoon.  Evan was a little fussy because he wouldn't nap.  I, on the other hand, took a nice long nap.

My Grandma Flores just adored Evan.





Four generations of Flores family Love!



We spent the next few days in Houston.  Matt and I enjoyed a date night and my parents enjoyed some quality time with their favorite (and only) grandson.



Those eyes!

Evan decided he wanted to start holding his own bottle while we were in Houston.


Brotherly Love
We loved the beautiful weather and amazing time with our family.  It was the perfect start to our Thanksgiving break.

Stay tuned for Part 2 of our long vacation!
