A Visit From the Roni-Meister

The Roni-Meister.
The youngest of the Stone Clan.
She came to visit us in May!
She had a mission call, set to leave in July- and we knew we wouldn't be able to fly from Mississippi to go see her in July. SO we took advantage of the Houston airport before we left and flew her out to see us!
We love this girl.
We just did this all weekend.
Joke joke.
We gave her the Houston Grand Tour!
We got some serious shaved ice- delish.
We took her shopping.
Where we got her some shoes for her mission.
Went to the Beer Can House...
And took her along to our friends dance recital!
And I think we tuckered Jon out.
The evolution of Jon sleeping while sitting up...
Poor guy.
Went to a community picnic with free goods at the taco trucks.
 And almost shared a romantic moment ;)
She was my photo shoot subject at all times.
On Memorial Day we had a fun pool party planned for the seminary kids- and it rained!
All stinkin' day.
Dang Houston.
 But we still braved the pool!
 And even the tiniest of snails came out to play.
 And became Rachel's best friend.
Her last day with us we wanted to go to the beach.
And what do you know- it was raining ALL morning.
We decided to go to a movie instead... but packed our beach bag JUST IN CASE it cleared up.
Cleared up it did- and we headed to the beach!
But we forgot our sunscreen... oops.
There was a monstrous amount of seaweed on the shore...
But it didn't stop these two from boogie boarding!
 Hooray for sunshine!
We ended her trip with a bubble blowing contest...
AND some delicious ribs.
Now the Roni-Meister is off on her mission to Cleveland, Ohio!
We miss her already!

Camping Season in Texas!

Ok well we may have jumped the gun on "camping season" in Texas.
Turns out January is still kind of cold.
And by cold we mean 50 degrees.
Hahaha.
Anyway! We had such a great time camping this past weekend! 
Beach camping is seriously our favorite. 
Light breeze. Beautiful sunsets. Beautiful scenery. No bugs. Light breeze. Sound of the ocean as you fall asleep. Beautiful sunrises.
Seriously- amazing.
 Our little fire... we really were cold.
And it was only 50 degrees.
I can't believe we've become such wimps.
 This girl is nearly nine months pregnant and she came camping- what a woman!
 Sunrise!
 Breakfast hash, mmmmm.....
 We camped on Bolivar Island- which is just a short ferry ride away from Galveston.
The ferry ride always adds to the adventure.
Camping again next weekend, what?

Anniversary in San Francisco!


San Francisco has been on our "travel radar" for a while...
SO when a FIVE year anniversary, a BYU bowl game, and cheap flights all lined up perfectly- well we couldn't say "NO"!

So off to San Francisco we went!
I'll be honest...
sometimes I wish Jon and I were fairweather fans for BYU football.
It's painful to watch sometimes.
Like their past bowl game.
Although they lost-
we had great seats, it was a fun atmosphere, AND we got to hang out with great friends!
AND I'll let the video tell the rest of our San Francisco adventures!
