Memorial Day Weekend

On Saturday, Baby O went to Kilgore to see his Papa Tex. We had lunch at the Circle C Cafe, where Papa Tex has Breakfast and Lunch just about every day! He would probably have dinner there, but they are closed for dinner! We got there about 30 minutes before closing, and were able to take some photographs to capture the East Texas in Baby O. He may be half British; but, man doesn't he look at home in his overalls in the local diner?!?

Hmm..I think I'll have the fist sandwich.

On second thought...

Let me see here....is the chicken fried steak any good?

Papa Tex, what do you recommend? You do eat here every day....you should know.

After lunch with Papa Tex, we went to Kaela's second birthday party! It was fun to see everyone; unreal to see some of us with kiddos!

Kaela and Baby O--look at those cheeks!

Baby O can't believe Addi doesn't want to sit with him for a photo!

Oh well, she wasn't too crazy about posing with Kaela either!

There we go! Addison, Keala, and Owen! I went to church and to elementary through high school with Addison and Kaela's mothers. It was fun to introduce our kiddos to each other. Too bad Baby O lives so far away (2 hours is far considering we all grew up within a 5 mile radius of each other).

O with his new friend, Elephant.




Baby O swimming with Madeline H. We keep spending American holidays with the Hoyles (an English Family). So, I made certain we would again be invited for the 4th of July--then, I will have them over for Guy Fawkes Night.




Baby O loves green beans...yummy.

Little man didn't want to miss grilling out with his folks. Here he is helping daddy prepare dinner.

The Last Grill Before the New Grill---What a Big Event! We are having landscaping done and a new grill installed soon!! This was sianara little grill.

Mini-Man is so excited to be up after bed time!

The whole clan!
