A Short Visit To Glen Rose

Jordan, Ashley, Leighton and Remington took a mini-vacation to Glen Rose during the summer of 2016 and they invited us to come over for supper and a visit.  Things get pretty busy for Jordan's  landscape job in the summer, so they decided to do some mini vacations.  Glen Rose has the dinosaur tracks and Fossil Rim Wildlife  park. The drive through the park was fun and later they went through Stephenville to visit some of their old Tarleton memories, stocked up on Tarleton apparel and took the kids to Montana's, where Mom and Dad had their first date!  One of their last stops was to Erath Garden of Memory where Nana and Grandad are buried.

 It was fun to eat together and then visit at the hotel before the kids had to go to sleep.  We think these short vacation trips are neat and we're going to give them a try as well.

Remington was excited to be on vacation!

When you're confined to the hotel room, a chair with rollers
can become an amusement ride!

Bev's Birthday 2016

Birthdays come around too often it seems but having birthdays is far better than not having them!! We celebrated Bev's birthday in 2016 by taking a short trip to Waco for an outing to On The Border. After all the chemo treatments some foods just didn't taste like they did before and unfortunately this was the case with what we picked. However, it proved to be entertaining. Taylor and Presley provided the laughs and it was good to just get out of the house for a while before the 30 radiation treatments and the daily trips to Scott and White began.

Taylor found humor in this innovative tortilla face mask!

Not the best picture but Bev was busy laughing at Taylor's shenanigans!

The two entertainers plus Papaw. 

Proud, but reserved Mom.  No, those aren't my children!

Check please,  Let's get out of here!
