Happy Birthday Cody!

Today was Cody's 30th birthday. THIRTY!? Really?? ---So hard to believe.

We made our annual trip to the Big Texan and it was lots of fun.


Cody & Mason had their annual pepper stand-off. Those were some HOT peppers and I think it was a tie this year.



We all had our picture taken with Corbin in the big chair.







Here's Corbin sitting down to eat the 72 oz steak.

Bo & I had a couple of visitors this past weekend. Mary Helen and John were here, and we were so glad they came to visit. We had Cody, Jenny & Corbin over on Friday night for a cookout. Saturday morning we went to watch Corbin play football. Saturday afternoon we walked 6 miles to the Lighthouse and back in Palo Duro Canyon. We had a great time there even though I fell down and got a big scrape down my arm. Ouch! Then Saturday night we went out to eat and Mary Ellen and I got a haircut at the mall. After that we went home and went to bed. We were so tired from the walking 6 miles. Sunday morning they loaded up and headed back to Tyler.

Here are pictures:

We are in Gatlinburg, TN just outside of the Smoky Mountains

We are in Tennessee! It's so pretty and has so many trees.



This is our friends, Donnie & Mary. We spent the night with them last night and had a great visit.



Hey Corbin look:

Happy Birthday to Jocelyne!

Bo & I slipped off to Colorado Springs today for a little weekend getaway. Tonight we went down to Old Colorado City and walked around for a while. Bo sat on a bench and I set up the camera to take our picture using the time delay, then made a beeline for the bench myself. Can you tell I just sat down a second before this picture snapped?



Tomorrow we plan to go to Manitou Springs and to Pikes Peak.

We're having a good time!
