Palestine

Last week, Stephen and I spent 4 days in Palestine with his family. It was a wonderful long weekend trip! I wish we could have stayed all week.

Friday afternoon Shelley and the boys came and picked me up from work and I rode up to Palestine with them. Stephen had to work Saturday, so he did come until Saturday night. It was cold and rainy on Saturday so we stayed inside all day. Shelley and I made cards most of the afternoon and just hung out. Sunday was also cold and nasty outside so we stayed in most of the day. Stephen and the boys got out a little and rode around, but for the majority of the day we stayed in and played games and watched movies.

Monday was a gorgeous day! After breakfast we all got out and rode around all over the property. The weather was perfect! That afternoon we all went bowling and then had dinner at a Mexican Restaurant in town. We all had a blast bowling! When we got home, we went on a night ride and of course Stephen had to scare everyone. We all watched the Strangers that night, which was a pretty scary movie. It was fun watching it all together. Tuesday ended up being another gorgeous day. We went down to the pier pond and watched Taylor and Shelley ride the kayaks and Cameron fished. It was so peaceful and relaxing. After lunch, Stephen and I left to go back home. When we got into Houston, we decided to meet his mom, Jim, Alisa, Zach and Madison at Fajita Willies for dinner. We had not seen Alisa and the kids since Christmas so it was great to see them.

It was such a nice and relaxing trip! Now, back to reality!
