Texas trip

After Christmas, we took a quick trip to see Dean's family.  He hadn't seen his folks in a couple years and wanted to go for a visit.  There is no way you are going to forget you are in Texas with these everywhere...




When we drove into their neighborhood, we saw all the deer that are so common there.  They walk the yards like dogs would.  Totally unafraid.  If they only knew what Dean was thinking (DINNER) they would have worried a little!



This one walked was curious and walked within 3 feet of the car.  Pretty.



There were lots of smiles...




While there, we took the boys to the playground.  They played tag.... so the biggest boy climbed a tree.  He was safely out of reach here.  NO FAIR!




during a tense movie, someone snuggled up with his niece!



we went to a trail of lights in Wimberly and it was awesome.  I loved this little teacup birdfeeder...



it was a long walk, with a lot to see.  This herb garden hedged in with stone made me want one...Dean?




 by the time we were done, it was dark and COLD!  We finished the walk at the Veteran's Memorial.  I couldn't help but think of daddy and get choked up.



When it got too cold, we enjoyed hot cocoa and then roasted marshmallows over a fire....a lot of fun, especially for the little ones.

I'll have to remember that move the next time I play tag. The deer must know they are safe.

I still can't believe how many deer there are in their neighborhood. Glad to hear you had a nice visit. Hugs, Tammy
