Fourth of July

For the fourth we went to Angleton, TX (right outside of Houston) to visit our friend Tony and Misty and to meet their baby Derek. We stayed with them at Misty's parents house. They have a beautiful property with lots of land, horses, geese, cats, chickens, a lake, and a tractor. Jack had a blast going on a boat ride with Uncle Tony and getting to paddle with his very own oar, and going on a tractor ride with Misty's Dad. We had a great time eating amazing brisket, ribs, sausage, salads, beans, fruit, cakes and cookies. Daddy and Tony put on a fire works show for everyone at the end of the night. Lily was scared so she and I stayed inside. The next day we had a beautiful drive home through the lush and green Texas country towns.

You guys I love these pictures, yes Texas is a beautiful place but it's too late for me to move there, A visit will have to do. What a great weekend you must have had, I love hearing all the details of your time there and now the pictures too.
I MUST have a paper picture of Jack driving the tractor. You are going to be sending me birthday pictures so send this too. OR maybe have "Genius John" make me a 5 minute collage of a collection of you guys for my scrapbook, also some shots of the courthouse.
