It's been a while. I know. We've been busy. Okay?
On July 3 we went down to San Antonio for my granddad's 80th birthday. My whole family was there. We actually got a picture of it. And Blogger is importing it sideways. Sorry. If you know how to fix that, leave me a comment.
Then on the 4th, we met my mom in Boerne for a Tea Party. As in Taxed Enough Already. It was... interesting. I think as a Christian Christ deserves our allegiance, not our country. Though I'm sure most in attendance would say that they don't worship America, it sure comes across as worship to me. Tiffany wrote a good blog on patriotism here.
Daniel and I stayed in San Antonio almost a week after Tommy left. We visited Amy and Eleanor. Check out their growth here.
We also spent a few days with my cousins so my Aunt and Uncle could go on a mini-in-town-vacation-date. We had fun swimming, watching movies, and walking Scottie, the new dog.
Then Saturday my mother-in-law drove Daniel and I back home and stayed a few days to visit. on Sunday we took a train ride from the Stockyards and visited the Water Garden.
And on Monday we went to the Botanic Garden and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
We had a great time and Daniel was an excellent sport. But it's nice to be home, where it's childproofed.
Thanks for the shout-out! Meanwhile, the baby-in-crate and baby-in-wig pictures are hilarious! Good stuff to show the prom date one day. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that you mentioned feeling the tug of Christianity vs. patriotism. I've been thinking about that stuff a lot lately too. And sorry - I don't have any tips on how to rotate that image. That is strange...
