Much more HERE with Matthew!

Lindi joined Jade and Bayley for a fun time at the San Jacinto festival in West Columbia.

There was a shrimp boil and FUNNEL CAKE!

Jade REALLY wanted to go on the Zipper, but Lindi and Bayley vetoed it!

She found a guy to go with her (Chris Lewis), and they both survived (although Jade walked a little funny for a few minutes after the ride!).

After 4 days with cousin Matthew (a blast!), we went to Moody Gardens on Monday.

The penguins were very active today!
