Spring Break '13

  Our Spring Break was not exactly stellar.  Oh, it was nice and all.  We couldn't take a big trip with my work days and the expenses of moving next month. So, we had a Day O' Fun, as my sisters call it.  We drove out to the country and enjoyed the little town of Glen Rose.  Dinosaur World was really cool.  Way too expensive for what there is to do/see.  But, fun none the less.  Below is Mike's head sticking out of a giant dinosaur sculpture!

Next, we ate lunch at one the cute eateries in the old downtown. Very quaint very Texas, and very pricey for a hamburger--but very good!




We then headed to Big Rock City Park at the river. Actually, until some spring storms come, it is a stream. There are huge natural boulders to climb on. The boys loved it!

This next pic kills me. My daughter is stunning! Where oh where is my chubby little 3yr old daughter who sang Dora all the time and wore ridiculous gaudy outfits that never matched? I want her back!!

Notice that we are missing a kid. It seems we only have 3 children now. Carter is 17 and pretty much flying solo. He has a car, friends, a job, and places to go things to do. We are glad he is independent and doing well, but it is sad to have an empty spot in the minivan. He and Mike have always been best buds...teaming up to poke fun of momma and quote silly movie lines "there are no eagle powers"....




And, this is the other fun event of spring break. We started packing. God blessed Mike at a garage sale with 30 "real" moving boxes for 10 cents a piece. A STEAL!
