When morning dawns, the kids want a little time to just play. I can't say as I blame them even one little bit and the toy closet is quickly raided. Well -- that's what it is for. We are opting for a "stay home and chill" day and the next request is for a movie. I can handle that and so turn Hyrum's bed into a comfy place for two and let the fun begin.

Hyrum and Zyra Summer Camp - Session 2 Begins - Travel and Day 1
The wedding is behind us and it is time to return to Texas. However ---- we have the bonus prize. We are taking two grands home with us for while. Woot Woot. With an early morning start, we have the rental car loaded and are soon on our way to Denver. Yes, one granddaughter flew up with us and two grands are going back. Such fun times. I cannot explain how much I love these times.
Psst, I think we woke Zyra up a wee bit early as she is back out in no time. Hyrum, meanwhile, takes up reading the comics in the newspaper. Gotta love everything about this picture. Right down to his legs.

Montana Family Time
Good Morning from the top of the world. Well, at least it feels that way today. Oh, remember our two little charges from last night -- you know, Grandpa putting them to bed. HAHAHAHAHA Well that didn't last long and Malea was ALL OVER Elena. Grandpa to the rescue again. He put the two chairs together and made a snug little bed for Malea. Yay -- we all go to sleep finally.

Rhiana's Wedding
Waking in Billings to an absolutely beautiful day, it's hard to tell that the weather was so crazy yesterday. Woohoo --- at least the wedding day will go smooth. Mister and I are off to wander around downtown before meeting my ENTIRE family for a breakfast Mister and I are hosting at McCormick's Cafe.
We find a coffee shop, peek in antique shop windows and work our way down to the restaurant to make sure everything is in order. Dang, for some reason they are not prepared for us at all and will now be setting up the room that I reserved a month ago. Can you say frustrated?

Montana Bound - Wedding Time - Trip and Rehearsal Dinner
My daughter, Rhiana, is getting married this tomorrow. That means we need to get our backsides out of Texas and up to Montana pronto. We picked up Bekah from camp yesterday and are taking her with us as her family has already left and let's face it --- a car ride from Texas to Montana with four brothers or a quick flight to Denver and then a drive with the backseat all to herself and QUIET old people? Seems like a no-brainer to me. The flight is early and goes well. In no time, we have a rental car and are on the road. This is not a stop-and-play type of trip. We are on the move to make a dress rehearsal dinner tonight and it's at least 8 hours from Denver to Billings. Drive Mister, drive.

Yard Art
The blackberries have truly burst into color this last week. I take a trip out and come away with a beautiful bowl in no time. Yum.

Texas Day Tripping
Today we have the drive back home from Abilene on our agenda and have decided to take a bit of a scenic route and check out a road we haven't been on. I love these little impromptu adventures and they always yield up wonderful memories through the years. First stop though is for coffee at this cute little place near Jen's house. It appears we are the only people needing it this morning. Such a difference to White Rock Coffee in our hood. It fits the need and after a warm cup of Chai Tea for me, I am ready to roll.
