Thanks For The Memories...And The Rest!

Rhonda and Terry's birthday present to me this year (29) was a weekend of babysitting. Great idea guys! This present resulted in a weekend away for Brian and I... Brian did a fantastic job of

We headed out west to the Wildcatter Ranch in Graham Tx.

We had a great room in a log cabin with a beautiful view from our back porch. The rooms had all the bells and whistles including a gas fireplace. So romantic!
Ah yes...the self-portrait...of two very happy and relaxed parents of triplets!


I spent most of my time hanging out watching Brian fish and reading a new (not so long) book. In fact, I finished the entire thing on our trip. We also had a stellar dinner at the steakhouse.
And did a very small amount of hiking.

It was a great trip and much needed. Thanks to everyone who made it possible. I love the day-to-day grind with three toddlers, but a little R & R is always welcome. We went our own speed, did our own things, and ate a massive amount of junk food...Just the way a vacation should be.
The babies had a blast at Nonnie and Poppie's house and had lots of visitors while they were there. They kept them moving and shaking the whole time. Apparently wheelbarrow rides were a favorite activity. We sure did miss them, however, and as always had lots of conversations about them. It's funny how they are NEVER far from our hearts or minds. We love them bunches!

We had a blast with our grandbabies!!! I'm not sure who had more fun with the wheelbarrow rides...the babies or Terry.
Glad you two got some R&R. You deserve it!!! Those little munchkins will wear you out!!!
Love to all,
Rhonda
