I'm In Houston

I arrived in Houston Saturday about 8 pm. The Bischoff family picked me up at the airport and took me to their new home. They took me on a quick tour before I settled myself in the guest room. We visited awhile before going to bed.


Sunday we went to Sunday School and Church, then out to eat with a bunch of the students at Jax Grill. Doug had an Israel trip get-together, so Wendy went with him and I stayed and played with the kids.

On Monday Wendy, the kids and I went to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. It's a huge event that, besides the rodeo, is kind of like a fair with carnival rides, livestock, etc. We saw the pig races, did Fun at the Farm, saw baby chicks hatching, one day old baby pigs....just fun after fun. Here's our piggies at the pig races:






Lucas driving the John Deere:






Bailey milking the cow:








Ruthie on the Carousal:





Micah on the Goliath slide:



Wendy, Lucas, Bailey, Micah on the SkyLift:

Ruthie and I were content to walk.




We walked to a nearby school playground in the afternoon and let the kids play then came home and went to Target.


Now, it's Tuesday morning and Wendy is at the dentist. The girls have been watching a movie and Micah and Lucas are playing Wii. Who knows what the rest of the day will hold?


Be home Wednesday,


Donna
