texas trip 2016

posted by owen, everett and eloise

we went to visit umma and uppa in texas and we all traveled to corpus christi to fish and enjoy the water. umma set us up with a great suite on the navy base so we got to see real pilots as we drove around. it was great to get to spend time with them. we ate yummy food, played outside and even got to do some fishing while we were there. we can't wait to go back.

our visit to texas

last weekend, we all flew to texas to visit uppa in the hospital. it was eloise's first airplane ride, and my second! we were so happy that one of the nurses actually allowed all of us to go into his room to see him, which brought a huge smile to his face! it was so much fun to hang out with umma and lift her spirits up after all they've been going through. we each kissed a stuffed animal and gave it to uppa to let him know we are always praying for him and hoping he gets better.

we loved being there for umma
