Vacation

We just returned from our family vacation. We had a really good time. Everyone ended up with a head cold, but we still enjoyed the trip. We started out last Wednesday and went to Lake Buchanan (near Austin). We stayed in a small cabin near the lake. Actually, our back door should have been right next to the water, but the lake is extremely low so we had to walk about half a mile to reach the water. We did lots of wading and some fishing. Our resort also had a swimming pool so we spent lots of time there also. We took a drive around the lake and went to the dam. I've never seen the water level so low. Hopefully some rain will come soon and replenish it.

After the lake, we headed to Houston. We arrived Friday afternoon at Leland's aunt Glenda's house. We relaxed there. One of her sons and his family joined us for supper. It was good to see family again. We then went to my brother's house in Katy. We only could spend a couple of hours with them, but it was good to see their new house and visit with them. They should be having their baby today, so I'll post info when I receive it.

Saturday Leland, Ryland and I went to see the Lion King! It was awesome. Leland and I had seen it in Los Angeles several year ago and when we saw that it would be in Houston the same time we were, we had to take Ryland. Poor thing felt so sick, but his eyes were glued to it the entire time. Unfortunately, I didn't take my camera in so we only have one picture taken with Leland's cell phone. We asked Ryland what his favorite part of the show was and he said "all of it."

Since all four of us weren't feeling well, we decided to start heading home Saturday evening. We made it to Temple and got a good night's sleep. We came the rest of the way yesterday and got home about 3:30. We really enjoyed the relaxing time and getting to see family. We had hoped to get to see the new nephew, but he still had not made his debue yet. As usual, vacations always seem to make you feel like you need another vacation to recouperate but we did have a good time.

Blogger won't let me post any more pictures, so I'll try again later.
