Our Texas trip...

As many of you know my Grandfather passed away last Janaury and due to many situations/issues we were not able to have a funeral until now. So last Wednesday Jacks and I went to Texas with my parents for his funeral/memorial.
Grandpa Chiaia (Nick's dad) was an amazing man and one of the best Grandpa's to me! I am so lucky to have had him in my life--he taught me to always strive for the best and to NEVER give up! My boys are very lucky to have such a wonderful angel watching over them:)
It was so good to see this part of my family...due to the distance between us we rarely get together. Jacks had a blast with his Great Aunts, Great Uncle and Great Grandma:) We love you guys and hope to see all of you very soon!!

Here are some snapshots of our trip...Jacks says that he loves Texas and wants to go back right now:) Swimming in January!
