Grammy and Boots!

On our way back to Kansas we stopped off at Grammy and Boot's house in Honey Grove. Grammy and Boots are Jason's mom Sherry and her husband Al. They have turned their farm into a "Grandkid Paradise" - complete with a pony, playhouse, ducks, cats, and the sweetest Great Pyranese dog EVER - Max. This dog is GINORMOUS. I thought my mom's 180 lb German Shepherd was big. Neh, he's just big boned. But Max is huge. He keeps the farm and animals safe. I would have loved to take the big lug home with me!

Dinner, err, I mean #23.



The cows were very curious about the kids.  They came right up to the fence to check them out.


Jillian wasn't taking any chances.  She was going to have no part of this!




Bluebonnets

What do I love about Texas? Many things, but spring in Texas is beautiful. The highway crews in Texas are known to throw out native wildflower seeds after mowing. Come spring the highways are covered with bluebonnets and indian paintbrushes. The bluebonnets were blooming in Texas on our recent trip. This was the girls first time to take their picture with the bluebonnets.
