The Stockyards
Fabian goes home in two weeks and what's a trip to Texas without a visit to the Stockyards. We ate dinner at Risky's because it seemed like the thing to do and not because we like BBQ. It was a neat restaurant, but I'm sure that will be our one and only visit. After dinner we walked around, visited a few shops, and rode the mechanical bull. I wanted to buy Fabian a cowboy hat to take home with him, but the owner of the store was super rude. He told us they don't allow dress-up which kind of confused me. How else are you supposed to know which hat you want? Oh well.

Lady Royal Picture Day
Friday was the first of many high school photo shoots for Nadirah. The Lady Royal's met at Feragne to take their first team photo. The girls were given the option to have individual photo's as well and of course what girl is gonna' turn that down. So I decided to take Nadirah and have her make up applied. She was really excited and as you can see she looked beautiful. My only requirement for the make-up artist was that she not look twenty!

Granbury
Jeremy is off school this week so we decided to go to Granbury overnight for a little peace and quiet which is kinda' hard to come by with four kids. Well, normally I would not be okay with a Bed and Breakfast, but Jeremy found a super nice Inn that was run similar to a B&B but was built for guests and not lived in. So I was game and off we went. The Inn was amazing and the room was perfect. The backyard was the best part because it backed up to the lake, had a pool, hammock, and a swing where we enjoyed our morning coffee. It was really nice because we didn't have a schedule or anything to do except relax!! We spent time walking around, swimming, laying in the hammock and enjoyed meeting new people. So what is Jeremy doing? Okay the only part of our room that was not perfect was this rod iron decoration and it was driving me crazy. Yes, I'm (well we're) somewhat OCD and we just had to fix it. I laughed so hard when Jeremy took it down to "work" on it, but luckily I managed to gain enough composure to take some pictures.
