Scott, Loren, & Eli visit and a trip to the Houston Zoo!

Scott, Loren, and Eli came to visit and we had a fun time!  We got to see Boston interact with his cousin Eli and it was so cute to watch.  Boston got to go to the zoo for the 1st time and he was overwhelmed by everything as well as the heat :).

B and Eli being silly!
