Deep in the Heart of Texas

Mary Margo took this picture from the plane window then turned to me and asked
Can we see God from up here?

The flight went just as we had so perfectly planned it.  We gave Dottie a bottle at take off and she went right to sleep.  She slept for an hour or so and when she woke up she was content with sitting there watching her surroundings.

Mary Margo handled the flight just as we expected too.  She was so excited about the whole thing that her little brain was in overdrive.  She wanted to know what everything was and she wanted to eat every bit of the enormous amount of snacks and candy in her backpack.  Then I let her get a Dr. Pepper from the flight attendant.  She wanted a snack from her too.  My response to that...."Honey you were born too late to get snacks from the flight attendant.  They don't do that anymore.  Sorry.  Here have another lollipop and enjoy that coke."

Aunt Mandy is so cool because she has a POOL!  We spent much of our free time swimming and diving and floating in the pool.  

We taught Mary Margo how to play cards instead of playing the Ipad.

We had to do the Texas cowboy thing for our little cowgirl, Mary Margo.  We took her downtown Fort Worth to the Stockyards.  She dressed the part with her hat and boots.

She traded her cowboy hat for a Longhorn balloon hat.
