Back from the Camper and Texas






We had a great week at the camper. Our friends the Johnson's went with us, so we were just two families at play. We played at the beach, took the kids tubing and finally knocked both Katie and Jack off. The campground puts on a karoake night once in a while so as usual Neill and Katie can not miss the chance to sing. Neill loves doing the old standards like "Chantilly lace" and Katie loves Christina Aquilera. I just sit back and observe.

Two days after we returned from the camper, we headed off to Texas. A friend of mind from Covenant let us stay at his ranch. WOW!!!!!! it was amazing. Thanks again Josh. We could not have asked for a better vacation. We would open the gate to the ranch and 40 deer would run past us. Then a little bit further and we would pass horses, cows, antelope and bison. It was truly amazing.

We also got to go the the alamo, riverwalk, six flags, sea world and our all time favorite SCHLITTERBAHN. We had seen it on the travel channel but it was AMAZING. I would highly recommend that everyone go there. Uphill waterslides. Crazy. Then on the way home we stayed with old friends Wes and Shelley Jones in Dallas. It was great to get to catch up and see where they live. It has only taken us twelve years to get there. We promise not so long next time.

Well, that is the most recent adventures we have taken. We head out Friday for the camper again. Neill's family is meeting us there for the weekend. We have rented a pontoon boat so everyone can go out on the lake. See ya when we get back

Nice cabin! Whoever let you stay there must be a long-term friend!
