Fun at Mimi's

We took the kids to see Mimi and Papa Tad this weekend. They had so much fun...I wish I could say the same. Unfortunately Samara had another episode and the transmission on the Beast went out. So we spent an extra night and made it home on Sunday thanks to Mimi and Papa Tad letting us borrow their Tahoe. The Beast had to stay in MacAlester and will hopefully be fixed soon. Dalton and Lyric didn't let anything slow them down. They made the most of their visit and had so much fun. The kids and Dustin on the Chuckwagon. They rode this thing all over. Even Dalton and Lyric drove it but that was ...well, a little dangerous. Mimi and Papa Tad bought them each fishing poles and we went to the pond and had a picnic. They cooked hotdogs and fished. They waited ever so patiently for that fish to bite!

I had to go back to the house and take care of Samara and when I got back this is what I found.....Dalton and Lyric in the pond! Yuck!!! I'm a city girl even though I was raised on a farm and swimming in a pond is a little much for me. They sure had fun though. I got one picture of Samara with Mimi Sunday morning before we left. She was feeling better and loves to stick her fingers in everyones mouth right now.

So even though things didn't go as planned I am thankful for the following: 1) The beast broke down while we were in MacAlester and not while traveling on the way there or on the way home 2) The Beast is still under warranty by 4,000 miles!!! 3)Dalton and Lyric had so much fun 4)We had a vehicle to get back home and the kids all slept because they were so tired!
