Fun Weekend with the Fam

So, we got back last Sunday and I am just now updating this. To say that it has been a busy week is an understatement! We had a great time with the Bookter clan at Hyatt Hill Country and are looking forward to some R&R with the Mitchell family next weekend. Hyatt Hill Country has a great pool and lazy river where we spent most of our time. Trey and my brother played an entertaining round of golf and evidently my dad is good at retrieving golf balls...other peoples golf balls. The girls had fun at the spa...I got to lay on my stomach with the help of a really cool pillow and my nieces got to go to "camp out school". I am attaching a couple fun photos. There is a group shot in front of the giant plant (that you can't see) the next one is Megan and Caroline feeling baby Haley kicking them. Both say that when she kicks them it is because she loves them. I agree!! The first photo is my dad's tribute to sorority poses everywhere. Our only Griswald moment happened on Saturday night when we went to go grab a bite to eat. Trey bragged about this restaurant called Jailhouse Cafe. We mentioned it and my sister-in-law chimed in that it had the best chicken fried steak. We load up the Bookter cruiser and head downtown. Both the yellow pages online and our GPS say the address and phone number of this place. We didn't really eat anything most of the day to get ready for dinner. We get to the "restaurant" and it is now Action Bail Bonds and a really scary guy greeted us at the door and let us know that the restaurant closed down 3 years ago. We were pretty sad about this turn of events. Oh well, we didn't need to eat chicken fried steak the size of a serving platter anyway! All in all we had a great weekend!

I guess that the sport of choice right now is baseball or softball. We got to go to a Rangers game on Wednesday night which by some luck of the draw was dollar hot dog night. Trey only spent $3 on dogs, but the man in front of us spent at least $10-15. Trey played a double header in softball on Thursday night that even went into extra innings. And the most important game we went to this weekend was our nephew Keaton's tee ball game. This is where most of the fun happens before the game when you get to roll down the hill. Keaton did great and had 4 RBIs.

In other Mitchell news, we are getting a new truck this week. Stay tuned for pics of the newest member of the Mitchell fleet. I guess that I have rambled on as long as you guys can stand it.
