Quick Weatherford/Granbury Trip

On Tuesday we drove up to Weatherford for Mimi's (Tay's grandmother) 90th birthday. Unfortunately, I was so distracted while keeping Aiden from destroying all of the decorations in every one's homes and being semi-behaved at the restaurant that I forgot to get a picture of the birthday lady and her great-grandson. Anyways, the birthday was nice, and low-key. We had a good time seeing everyone.

Before the party, we went to Mimi's to "surprise" her, let her know that we were in town, and to give her some time to see Aiden before everyone met at the restaurant for dinner. She asked why we had come up during the middle of the week, and how that must have been difficult for us. I told her that it wasn't everyday that you have a 90th birthday, and that we wouldn't have missed it. She promptly looked at me, and said to not remind her about her age! We all had a good chuckle at that.

After the birthday party we continued on to Granbury to stay with Nana Randee and Grandad. Ever since Aiden was promised a ride in the boat the next time we went up to see them, it is all that he has talked about (well that, and yucky mushrooms). So as soon as everyone had eaten breakfast the next day, we all braved the wind and low 60 degree weather, and went for a ride in the boat.




Here is a picture of their fun little place right on the lake.


After the boat ride, Aiden took a nap, Tay and Randee went shopping, Allen and I fished for a little bit, and then I went for a nice run while Allen took care of some emails. We finished the day with a nice lunch out, and then headed home. It was a fun trip.

  1. Man, Aiden is looking like such a big boy. With every picture I see, I'm always surprised at how much older he looks. Handsome little dude!
