•April's POV•
We finished Warped US and we're headed to Texas for 'Self Help'. PTV is playing the main show so Chloe invited us to come along.
We have a week to relax before we go to WarpedUK.

We're headed to mine and Chloe's hometown.

I remember the last time I was down here.
The day my Uncle's funeral was a bad day for our family. My Uncle was a twin. Gerald and Larry, "the gemelos" (the twins), Gerald was older by 10 minutes, he passed away at a Dallas Cowboy game, He had died of a heart attack. He was my God Father.
It's almost been eight whole years since his passing. I miss him so much.

We called our Grandma to see if we can stay at her house for the weekend then we're headed to Corpus.

We get to our Grandma's house and it's 90 degrees outside. The only thing I hated about living in Texas was the weather.
I recorded the sky to show that half of the sky is bright blue, and the other half is dark and gray.
I posted it on Snapchat 'Texas is moody Asf' and use the Floresville GeoTag.

We say hi to Grandma and introduce her to everyone.
The guys go to the living room where all of our uncles are while the girls sit in the kitchen and talk.

In our family you greet the woman with a cheek kiss and the men with a hug.

I sit next to my Aunt Rosie and she asks Chloe and I what we've been up to.
We catch them up and everything and I tell them I'm pregnant.
They were surprised of course but they accepted it.
Our family is really close and they are very supportive.

I decided that while I'm down here I'm gonna reveal the gender.

My grandma always has all of the parties in her yard and so we plan a gender reveal party here. I want to be with all of my family during this time in my life.
Paul and I invited his family to come down too and we're paying for their tickets.

No one knows the gender yet. The only person who knows is the soccer-ball maker.

Paul and I decided that since we both love soccer so much, that the party is going to be soccer themed.

We get a call from our cousin Destinie, she's on her way over here with Zayliegh and her husband Chris.

It's been a while since I last saw Zayliegh, she was a baby in a blanket the last time I saw her.

Our other cousin is coming too, Clarissa, with her two kids.
She has a husband but he's in Florida right now.
He's in the Air Force.
The last time we saw them was when he graduated from basic training.

They both get here at the same time and Audri, Clarissa's kid, tells us she has a softball game tonight and tells us all that she wants everyone to come.
She's in Kindergarten.
Her little brother is Jalen and he's two.

We all get ready for Audri's game and I think that Chloe is the most excited.
Take note that Chloe played Softball since she was 5.
She was on the Varsity team all through High School and she got scholarships.
She was even on the Varsity team when we both moved schools.
