Lori's Birthday and the Kite Festival

Kite Festival & Lori’s Birthday:

We went to the kite festival at Sun River. There was no wind, but there was crazy corn, BBQ pork, potato skins, ice-cream, tamales, and tacos. Faye loved the train rides and all of the singing and dancing entertainment. Uncle Bob: If you have any pull with Dixie Escalante, please let them know the kite festival is a must for our family.

Lori wanted a garden theme for her birthday. Faye and I made a pie with bugs, worms, mud and grass. We also made everyone eat it with Home Depot shovels. Lori got a new Humming bird feeder with juice, an AGGIE shirt (of course), and live Ladybugs. Lori also got grilled fish and a salad. Hey it was her big day, so it was… her choice of dinner. Like it mattered, the next day we hit the buffet in a big way.

The birthday party weekend continued in Mesquite. Bret won a trip to beautiful Mesquite Nevada with his NCAA tournament knowledge (he got lucky on a couple true false questions…). So we went to Mesquite with our friends the Dottsons. Matt and Amy have a couple girls near Faye’s age. Don’t worry no gambling or crazy stuff happened. We went bowling, we flew kites (that whole business about not trying to retrieve a kite from power lines is bogus by the way) we swam, saw Hop, and just wiped out the Buffet. We had a great time. The Dottsons sure know how to party!

We love you Lori! HAPPY BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!!!
