Today we were up early again and on a flight to Charlotte, North Carolina to visit Andrew, Leigh and Rorey. They picked us up at the airport and after a stop at Costco we drove back to Boone and had dinner at a restaurant. I ordered the French onion soup and was surprised when it was served with a pair of scissors to cut the stringy cheese, this was a first.

Travel day

Today we were up early and on our way to the airport. We’re headed to Utah for Alex and Stacey’s graduation tomorrow and Friday. After a doctor’s appointment and some errands we met our friends Don and Joy Rich at Applebee’s. It was so great seeing them. Then we went to dinner at the Sego Lily on Main Street in Bountiful with my sister Susan.

Today is also Holli’s first birthday. I wish I could be with her. Happy Birthday Holli.

Sunday

Saturday night we drove to San Antonio to spend a few days with Alex, Stacey and Jan. Today after church we went back to their apartment and just spent time playing with Jan and visiting.

Schlitterbahn

Today we went to Schlitterbahn water park in New Braunfels, Texas. We had a large enough group to get the group rates. James and Ruth and their family, Kristina and Brian, Alex, Stacey and Jan, Rick’s cousin, Russ and his with Laura and their son Bill, his wife Emily and their three girls joined Rick and I. It was fun day although the park was packed and we stood in long lines for most of the slides.

On the road…

Today we drove to San Marcos, TX. The big event for today was the outlet mall. I have never seen an outlet mall like this one. There are two actually but we only went to one. It has outlets for Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Kate Spade, Coach, Gap, Juicy Couture, Brighton, Crate and Barrel…..to infinity! It’s a good thing I don’t live in Texas. We met up with some of our Carruth cousins at the hotel and headed to the mall. James kept his children as well as two of Emily’s girls. He is an amazing dad! After hanging out with the kids for awhile Laura and I decided to go off on our own. We were mostly looking, but we each ended up buying something in Kate Spade. She got some darling earrings and I got this great wallet in my favorite color. It was 50% off the already discounted outlet price, making it less expensive than the one I bought in Singapore and used for 5 years.
