Mother's Day Weekend 2014

We had one incredible weekend! Should I start off with our favorite part? Meet the newest member of the Campbell family!

Our brand new, 2015 Kia Sorento!

We are so in love with our car!

Friday Rylee and I picked Ryan up from work and headed to Austin in our very old Honda Civic. To quote Ryan, it was the "worst drive ever." No cruise control, radio broke a long time ago, and the baby was screaming for a good chunk of the time. We had stopped THREE times within fifty miles of Houston! We eventually got to Austin with the car all in one piece and with a sleeping baby.

Saturday, we took that little Civic to trade in and spent ALL day car shopping. It came down between the Kia and a 2014 Dodge Journey. Finally, after a gizzlion hours of deliberation (for the record I had come to a decision, but Ryan was still deciding), we ditched the dodge dealership and got the Kia. We got a great price for it and have loved every second driving it!

We left Rylee-roo with her Campbell grandparents and headed out to Lago Vista(in the new ride) to see my sister play Queen Susan in "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe." It was really cute and she did great!
Cassie is the taller girl. How is she old enough to play Susan over Lucy?!

My brother and I caught in the act of taking selfies on his phone.

I love this girl! That's Dad in the background with the white beard
playing Father Christmas.

"What does the fox say?"
On our way home we stopped and got Torchy's. My favorites are the fried avocado and the Crossover(brisket taco).

Sunday saw us at my family's ward. Rylee was pretty tired, but we had to take a last minute Mother's Day picture!

My brother is the King of photobombs.
So we took another. I was trying to distract her with a cupcake and at least get her to smile.
She's looking at the camera at least.

We had a yummy dinner that Dad made. Salmon with parley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. He called it his "Salmon and Garfunkel." Ha...ha...ha. Rylee and I took some better Mommy/daughter pictures.




She loved eating cheerios with Abuelita. Best seat in the house apparently.

Cassie came and spent the night with us in Georgetown. We watched some Captain America in 3D.

Monday came too quickly and we had to head back to Houston. But it was exciting to pack up our new car(which has so much storage space) and drive it home!

Happy Mother's Day!
