Trip to Abilene

So, last weekend I went on a little trip to Abilene, my friend Curtis, was nice enough to trade shifts with me on Thursday so I went over there Thursday night. Friday morning, I took the kids to school and then came back to the house to make cookies for a meeting my sister was having at the house.

Soon, it was time to head back to school to have lunch with the kids. Of course, I managed to leave home without my check card and only one check. So, when I stopped at WalMart earlier that day to get cookies supplies I was able to write a check for over to get some cash for lunch with the kids.....whew.

Each of them get to bring one friend to the table to have lunch with me. Here are some pics from lunch :

After lunch I went back to the house to rest until it was time to pick up the kids. That night we went to Mr. Gatti's for dinner. Instead of playing arcade games, we came home and played Junior Pictionary. Up until that night, Morgan had not been in a winning team - but we kicked butt and beat JoLynn and Mason. Woo hoo ! Losers.

Saturday we got up and headed to the Abilene State park.....where we had a little hike. Here is a picture from the trail.

Then after naming every restaurant in Abilene the kids finally decided on Chili's for lunch. Here is Morgan digging into her favorite thing....back ribs.

It was a fun trip and I headed back home Saturday night. SPRING BREAK this week !! Woo hoo !
