Good Friends, Good Times


When we arrived in Texas, we had all sorts of things on our agenda. We were only moments in the house before we scrapped our plans and couldn't resist a couple days of just hanging out with our good friends. (After all, we would be moving to this corner of the country, so shouldn't we save a few things to see when were permanent Texans?) There was no way that we could have pulled the kids away from the Goodes. Jonathan and Nathan immediately rekindled their friendship, Emilie loved hanging out with 18 year old Jenna and her teenage friends, Sophia and Annie fell in love with the dog and couldn't keep their hands off the poor thing, and Ezra was happy to be included with the big boys. The kids spent their time in the pool, watching movies in the home theater, shooting hoops and hanging out at Jenna's friends' houses.
We did venture out into the 108 degree temperatures to visit the Fortworth Stockyards, where historically all the cattle from the region were brought to be bought and sold. We sought out an authentic Mexican restaurant and made a very meager attempt to do some outdoor shopping, and then headed straight back to the pool.
Thank you Rich and Marla for a great weekend at the all inclusive Goode Resort!
