It Seems Like Just Yesterday.

Tonight we went to the Western Heritage Classic parade. It seems like yesterday that we just went and I used this opportunity to use this parade as the subject of a new craft I was learning, digital scrapbooking. Man ~ time really does go by faster the older you get!

It was much shorter than usual, but that was a blessing since Frank went with us this year and because it was so hot today! My car read 104 when I got in it at 5 and I had left windows down! Man - I dread to see July and August if it is already this hot in May!!!!!
Frank and I scheduled our vacation time today. We were both able to get the days we requested on our first try. That is usually pretty easy for me, but Frank has more people to coordinate with. Now we just have to decided where we want to go. Mattie May wants to go back to the beach so to the beach we will go. We are trying to decided between Corpus Christi (where we went last year) or Galveston. I worry about Galveston because it has not even been a year since they were hit with Hurricane Ike. From everything I read on the internet, they are ready for tourist. If any of you out there have visited Galveston lately, let me know how it was.
I hope everyone is having a blessed week and I wish all you Mom's out there a Happy Mother's Day (just in case I don't post again before Sunday)!

Western Heritage Classic Parade

Thursday night, we went to the Western Heritage Parade. Mattie May just loves parades. This one is fun because it is at night. The weather is usually nice and it is just a lot of fun. Chris, Nikki, Lindsey and Caleb went with us too. I hope you enjoy the pictures.



The Western Heritage Classic combines a lot of different activities into one fun weekend. There are chuckwagon cookoffs, bit and spur shows, competition for the kiddos, and the ranch rodeo. It is all a fun time. WHC is always the same weekend in May as Mother's day. Come check it out some time.
