Visiting Family and Friends in TX

We are visiting family in TX before we head to KS for George's sentencing hearing (See "Catching Up post on 1/19/2014"). Even though the trip is not for good reasons, we try to add a little "happy" in when we can. Have to in order to keep our sanity.

First, my H.S. friend Pam Cook wanted to get together, so we decided to put it out there for more H.S. friends to join us and a few did. We went to Abuelos Mexican. The food was delicious and it was nice to see some old friends. One I had not seen since her wedding (first) after we graduated and got to meet her new husband.

 My meal - Guacamole Enchiladas with Shrimp - Yum!
 
 This Pam's meal - Combo Fajitas.
 
 
Harold and I also went to the Ft. Worth Stockyards. Well, I wanted to go to take some pics with my sock monkeys to share with my Red Hat Sock Monkey Sisterhood Facebook group. We had a great time and got to see a lot of longhorns being herded down the main street.
