Leo was very well behaved for the whole thing.

Leo was really looking forward to the cake!

The next morning, we went to breakfast. It was over 30 people, so we had to wait quite a bit even though they had warned the owner. Henry did pretty well at sitting in the booth for almost two hours. He enjoyed playing with Gran's reading glasses.

We left on Sunday afternoon to head back to Abilene. Henry slept, and Leo and I played with pipe cleaners - a wonderful car entertainment suggestion from Miss Carla.

We went to Double Dave's for pizza and salad buffet, and then we went to Cold Stone Creamery for some ice cream.

I filmed this as a little example of what eating has been like for Todd and me for pretty much the past seven years. He's saying..."I forgot something."

When we got up this morning...we were all pretty much done. Ready to be home, ready for some space, and I was REALLY tired of digging through suitcases to find underwear, socks, shirts, pants, etc. for everyone. We ate at the hotel and got on the road. Henry slept for a good bit of the trip. When we got to about Weatherford, he woke up and decided he was done. So the last hour wasn't fun, but we made it. He cheered up right before we got home and did some reading for us.

when we got home, Leo wanted to get out our Rock Candy experiment that we started last week. They actually did make some crystals - he was pleased.

We had a fun trip and it was great to see family! And now it's good to be home with no car trips in the near future!

Lubbock Trip Part 2

Saturday was full of wedding preparations. Gran's back room was filled with lots of tulle, flowers, and general wedding paraphernalia.

The kids played out in the back yard.

The story I was told was that the horse decided to try out Henry's big melon. "But don't worry, Holly. The horse just used his lips." Instead of saving Henry, Todd took a picture.

We helped with some food prep for the reception. I was very proud of my cheese tray.
