Our original plans were to head to Houston on Friday (March 22), but Karen convinced us to stay an extra day and have fun in Fort Worth. We had a great day at the Fort Worth Zoo with Karen and three of her grandchildren. Not only did Karen treat us to the zoo – but she also bought tickets to ride the carousel and the train AND bought ice cream. The kids were thrilled. (Thanks, Karen, for suggesting we do that, it was great!)
Saturday we drove to Houston and had dinner with our friends Michael & Katie and their son. So good to catch up with them.
Saturday and Sunday nights we stayed with the Kinghorns. The kids loved learning about honey bees!
We enjoyed our Sunday with North Houston Baptist Church and an afternoon and evening with the Brays
Monday (25th) we traveled back to the DFW area and visited with our friends the Woods. The Rylands came over for dinner as well.
Tuesday we drove to Lubbock to visit our friends the Siu. Lap helped Josh with his dissertation research on Vietnamese Jarai. On Wednesday we visited Texas Tech University Museum. We also visited the National Ranching Heritage Center. The kids loved seeing all the houses from to the old west.
Thursday we drove back to the DFW area.
