The answer is quite a bit. We went to visit my family for 2 days before Ben's little brother got married. We had a great time with all the cousins and here are the pictures to prove it. We magaed to pack in 2 days
- Wheeler Farm, tractors were loads of fun as was the tree house and feeding the geese
- hiked around Silver Lake,and then made tin foil dinners and s'mores; all my boys loved being in the mountains they ran around and explored to their hearts content I really miss the mtns and try not to think about the paucity of them in Houston
- visited This is the Place State Park including pony and train rides, making rope, watching a horse get shoed, seeing a Native American village, playing pioneer games and touring some pioneer homes ending with ice cream
- had take-out from our favorite Indian Restaurant (Bombay House) then played in Uncle Joel's backyard and made more s'mores
- met cousin Kate's puppy Guacamole, she was a hit but Owen was terrified of her if she got too close
- played with Pappa's train that is about as old as he is
- held Gram B's bird Ami

How fun! I love Silver Lake and I LOVE the Bombay House Mmmm. Glad you had a great time. Sad we can't catch up on a more regular basis. Sorry I completely dropped the ball on the Skype rendez-vous. Let me know when we can try again between 9am and 12pm your time. Tell Ben to go eat at McDonald for us, ha!ha! Truthfully, I wasn't very happy when Tony told me what the "prize" was... Only because I know Ben is dedicated in his work out and I'm not so sure about Tony... although he is pretty motivated right now :). Hugs and kisses to y'all.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so fun! The only thing I can relate to is a visit to the Wheeler farm- never been to the restaurant or This is the Place Monument (that I can remember) but the nights with S'mores sounds great- my favorite!
ReplyDeleteWe, also, are huge fans of Silver Lake AND the Bombay House! We'd love to see you sometime when you're back out here (though, I realize you have many people vying for your attention.) Hope you're doing well!
