Good Morning Brown Girl Followers. I am blogging in the early AM instead of in the evening - It was an exciting day yesterday. We got up in the morning and finished our Shrek movie, we have now watched I and II, I guess I will have to get III, watch it and go to see Shrek IV, good thing it is summer break! It was then off to brunch and then a trip down memory lane.
We went to see some of the Dallas sites - the grassy knoll, the home of George W. Bush and the home of Paul R. Bush. Both of the homes are in gated communities, we did note that two unmarked cars watched our picture taking at the home of George W's house and it was two graffiti-marked cars watched our picture taking at the home of Paul R's house, hmmmm, I guess it must have been the age difference between the two Bush men!
After the home watching, we went to see our old Texas home and found it was for sale - What! We couldn't believe it, who would sell such a landmark? We immediately called the realtor and found the cost to determine how much we should make on the sale, everyone can now rest easy, we will make enough to return home now so no need to sell the dolls or the girls! Next we were off to our elementary school and then the Piggly Wiggly, the Dairy Queen and found the 711 to have been changed to a Shell Station, but loyal fans, do not stress, the 711 only moved down the street.
After a short swim, we headed out to meet Granny Sande and the rest of our Texas family. Laura recommended a fabulous barbeque restaurant where we enjoyed some melt in your mouth ribs, mmmm, great barbeque and great friends, could it get any better?? Then back to Ann's house where we talked and laughed, talked and laugh some more - until finally Katie and Jessica fell asleep and we realized how late it had become. As Amy and I reminisced about our being with our Texas family we were happy at how comfortable it all was, we all just fell right back into being one big happy family. South family, we love you! Can't wait to see you in Lexington in September :)
Muchachas de Brown. Era así que encantador teniéndole visitar Dallas. Usted debe venir otra vez pronto. Guinness será agujereado sin Jessica que lo sacude la bola. Katie don' vino de la bebida de t. Cigarrillos que fuman de la parada de Sande de la abuela. Ame a su padrino Paul
