Our weekend part I









I think this will be a 10 part series. We did so much this weekend! We had thought to do something big and fun in Texas while grandpa was here and before we leave, so we picked out to go to Glenn Rose where there are dinosaur footprints, a dinosaur museum and wildlife park among other things. Brian came down with allergy stuff and had to opt out. I didn't realize until we had all the kids up early Sat. with picnic packed and 30 min. down the road that we could have picked another day when Brian felt better, but in the end, he at least got some rest with the house quiet. Meanwhile, we had one of the fullest days of our lives.

We spent the entire rest of the morning after driving 2 hours at Dinoworld where there are over 100 lifesized dinosaur replicas, a sand pit where the kids got to dig for and keep fossils and museum with real dinosaur artifacts. It was really neat and the perfect day to visit, as most of the attraction was outside and the day was hot but not overly horrid, no fierce Texas winds or rain, just a perfectly beautiful day. Emora liked stretching her legs and demonstrated to grandpa that while dinosaurs may have had power through amazing mass, that little creatures, such as herself can throw some fiercesome fits when she doesn't want to go with the program.

Big Buddy was sent home after they diagnosed him with gout. They sent him with a prescription, but he says it's not helping. He was really hurting today.

Thanks so much for the updates.
Looks like fun was had by all. Will be praying for Big Buddy. He may need to contact the docs back if the med doesn't help.
