Father's Day Weekend

We had a fun time last weekend. Friday, we packed up the RV and headed to my Dad and Barbara's house on Lake Palestine in Chandler, TX. We love to go there. They live on a very large lot and there is a spacious area for us to park the RV and hook up in the driveway area. It's also very convenient because it's behind the house in the backyard area and it's enclosed so we can let the dogs in and out without worrying about tie outs, leashes, etc. We got there Friday and just hung out. We broke out the bubble machine that Neenee has been storing since winter. It was so awesome. I think I enjoyed the bubbles more than Wyatt did! It made the largest bubbles and like this picture, several had bubbles inside of bubbles. LOVED IT!

On Saturday, we ran errands and played. There was an estate sale down the street and they had a golf cart for sale. Dad and Barbara live on a penninsula of the lake with a small neighborhood. The people in the neighborhood all know each other and it's a very "homey" atmosphere. A golf cart is perfect to run around on and go down to the little park and visit the neighbors. It's all private property with very little traffic. By Saturday things were half price at the estate sale, so Dad got a good deal on the golf cart. NeeNee had to work that day so we all met her in Tyler after work and went to Mercado's (the original Posado's. YUM!) Here is a picture of Grampa, Wyatt and Neenee.

We really enjoyed the golf cart. Here is a picture of Daddy and Wyatt driving the golf cart around the neighborhood on Sunday morning.

The dogs loved the golf cart too. Holly loved riding in it and running alongside of it. Here we found a turtle in the road and stopped to rescue it. You may notice the puddle under him. Holly jumped off the cart and ran over to him. Just as she stuck her nose down to smell him, he pee'd. She scared it right out of him. So, here we are showing him to Wyatt before we scooted him off the road. You can see the golf cart in the background with Holly perched in her new favorite seat.
Here are our tired babies on the way home from Grampa and Neenee's house after a fun weekend. Paco was on the other side also sleeping but out of camera range.
