How I got up there!








Some of you asked how I got up on that long horned steer...well this is how I did it.  You put your two hands on the steers back, bend one leg and the cowboy hoists you up and all of the sudden...there you are, sitting calmly on this very large and very warm animal.  He was so gentle.  The cowboy rode him up and down the street in Ft. Worth at the Stockyards.  Amazing!  Fun times in Texas!

Friends in Dallas


We met up with some friends in Dallas and even found Elvis!!  How funny that Elvis was in a patio seating area of a Tex Mex restaurant called Chuy's.  It was delicious!  

Laura's daughter, Leslie and my son, Dallas went to elementary school together.  Laura and I were part of a great group of gals who volunteered at the school and gave ourselves to the PTA for many wonderful years.  We all meet for lunch each year when Laura comes to town for her annual visit.  I was the first one to visit her since she moved to Texas 13 years ago.  I didn't think it had been that long!  
Here we are with our husbands.  What a great night...good food, fun place and good friends to catch up with.  Thanks Mark & Laura for treating us to a great Texas meal!  The sopapillas were to die for!!!
This is the beautiful home of our friends, Lucinda and Kevin.  They moved to Texas almost 3 years ago and love it.  

Isn't that a precious little face!  I got to play grandma to this little one for the morning.  He was a delight.  Can't you tell???
And this little one...oh my, all girl and such a beauty.  I enjoyed her too!
It was so neat to catch up with them and their precious family.  Their oldest was in school so we missed seeing her.  God bless this family.
What fun it is to visit new places and so extra special to meet up with old friends and catch up on their lives.  I was blessed and so happy to get to spend time with each one.  Can't wait until next time!

I've been to Dallas!

I've been to Dallas and got to sit on a real live long horned steer!  
I'll be back soon.  Gotta get caught up with some
things here at home.

I get to go to Dallas!!!

Should we go see South Fork???
I know I want to stay here!!  The OMNI!! Love their beds!


I am so excited!  Hubby has a business meeting at the end of the month in Dallas, Texas and I get to go along!  I've never been there and am hoping you all can help me with what we should do for the two days that we have to sight see in the Dallas area.  I know I want to stay at the Omni Hotel.  Other than that...I am researching on line to see what else we can do. A rodeo?  Tour of Cowboy stadium?  JFK memorial?  So help me....will ya???  I've got to keep busy now that Bella and Dylan are gone!  :(  I'm looking forward to your advice.  You all were great when we went to Chicago last year and gave me some great places to visit.
