Texas My Unhinged Home Away From Home

------------------------------------------------------------

So I have been on vacation for almost going on two weeks now and it has been awesome but I think I am ready to get away from all the crazy little cousins. Don't get me wrong I love them to no get out but I can only take so much of someone hanging on my leg. I wait all year for my chance to spend time out in the Lone Star State and this year was different because for the last two years I have spent the two weeks by myself but this time I wound up spending the first week with my mom, sister and my soon to be brother-in-law. I liked having them here because the kids are still in school so during the day we really have nothing to do. So this week I have been sleeping in and not really getting much accomplished.

Most of my nights have been filled with either choir concerts or baseball games, and I love seeing my cousins displaying their talents. Baseball isn't my favorite sport but I can sit there and cheer for my cousins all day if I had to because I know that when they see me cheering them on they love it. I know I have to be a role model because I am the oldest male cousin on my moms side and they look up to me and I don't want to let them down. I want them to remember these trips I made out here when they were growing up as positive experiences.

This trip has been way more eventful than past trips because I have been to my cousin Megan's choir concert and solo concert, I have been to at least five of my cousin Tristan's baseball games, two baseball games for my cousin Blaise, and not to mention Tristan getting appendicitis which entails getting your appendix removed.

Long story short I love my family in Texas and I love my trips out here but there is no other place I would rather be during the summer than at home with my family and friends doing nothing or doing so much we can't fit it all into one day.
