Rockport

After spending a few days in Houston as a family of four. We headed to Rockport with Nick's mom, Kathy to relax, enjoy the sun and take advantage of quality time with each other.













We were treated to the LIVESAYS one day while in Rockport. It was such a treat. The Livesays moved from Houston to Victoria in the Spring so they're less than an hour away from the coast. We went to BU with Stephen and struck up an incredible friendship with them when we were all newly weds! We've stayed very close and miss them so much. Spending time with both Stephen and Jenise was so fun, plus all of our boys had a blast together.






Buying fresh gulf coast shrimp!


On our way home we stopped by to get a tour of the Livesays new house.

Another stop on our way home...



Buccee's!!! If you've never stopped at Buccee's, you've never been on a true road trip. This place is unbelievable!! Seriously fabulous restrooms, plus all kinds of fun things to buy inside. They also have an outdoor store...where we found the bears (which took some convincing).

LOVE those sun kissed pictures! The boys kissing their grandmother--so sweet. And--my fave--Brooks with his arm around little bro with the matching shirts. It was like he was so proud! I love that one. Y'all are having such a fun summer! So many memories!
