Texas in the fall

At the end of September we took Mother on a road trip to Texas. We stopped in Allen for the night and left Mother with Emily & Geoff for a few days. She was able to visit with Ryan and Emily's families as well as Amber. Bill and I went on down to Killeen to visit with cousins Marjay and Scotti. They went with us to San Antonio for a couple of days where we visited the Alamo, the Riverwalk and took a Segway tour.

Marjay and Scotti gave us the crazy t-shirts so we wouln't get lost. It really worked. People kept saying "Peace", "Remember Woodstock", "3 cheers for the 60's". There is never a dull moment with Marjay and Scotti.

I call this the year of the cousins because I have been able to spend time with several this year. While in Allen we were also able to visit cousin Gina and David in Plano. Here is Mother with Gina in her kitchen.
I couldn't resist this cute one of Amber and Erin. Erin was so cute and warmed up to all of us. She really stole our hearts. Erin is Ryan and Shelley's youngest daughter. We enjoyed all the kids - Seth, Emma, Alex and Hayley. They are always fun to be around.
