Your twin grandbabies are adorable! How do they get along with Miss V.?

Pretty well, for the most part. They even play with her sometimes. They play with her stuff alot. She's not so keen on that part.

MINE!

Miss E pulled her Daddies laptop off the desk, where it should not have been when not in use, and broke it all to hell.

I took Miss V back to Austin last Sunday, after a saturday night with G&G in Killeen. I made sure she saw all the cows and horses and goats, there are a lot of goats, along the way.

When her mother asked what she saw, she said horses, cows, and... "What's this" and made the sign for "Goat", she knew what she had seen, but she just couldn't remember the aural version of the term. She signs "NO" to the twins, a lot, and they understand it too.

Miss E is consistently running up and yelling "grandpa" when I come in the door for months now. Miss K will say it, but not so often.

But Miss K is the snuggle bunny. Especially when Grandam is available, but in a pinch she'll snuggle with Grandpa too. She's beefing up a little though, in just the two weeks preceeding last weekend, the difference in her "solidness" was quite noticeable. I think she has been getting more exercise. dancing mostly, but also tumbling and flipping. :) This is a Good Thing, she had been about as substantial feeling as a bunch of tissue paper.

Red Rooster World looks Awesome!

It really is.

After we stuffed ourselves with a very yummy breakfast, we walked around the place for about 45 minutes just looking at all the cool stuff.

Sounds like I will need stretch pants.

I can do that

[Allegra]

Knowing Allegra, the photos would be of trash bags. :->

LOL - I wont be able to make it this time (heading back on that long commute to work in a couple of weeks), but if I were going to the shoot, you can be sure there'd be some trash pictures.

We have the Eaker daughter taking trash pictures in NYC now. She picked up the concept very quickly. :-D

[Xenalyte]

OMG I think I managed to delete my Facebook invite! I think I can actually make this one.

If I don't find some work I won't be going anywhere. As if it's not bad enough that my right rotor cuff is out, my left is trying to catch up and go out too.
I guess it's just too many years of hard work catching up with me.

Sorry to hear about the shoulders going south. I had a shoulder issues a few years back, lucky for now that I was able to dodge that surgeon’s gig.

Growing old is for wimps

Good luck on work, hope to see y’all there

Thank you ladies for the route recon:-)

Sorry to hear that you will not be able to be at the TCMS MkV Allegra. Good luck on your journey and the job thing:-)

Assuming Mrs alfa6’s knee job goes well I will see you for the breakfast gig, that looks yummy. Maybe I will have to wear them bibs that are wee bit large on me, snicker.

I should have a good idea by the first of June of how the knee is working out.

Thanks again y’all

Regards

Growing old is for wimps
I'm beginning to believe that growing old is making me a wimp.
When I went to the doctor to have the left arm/shoulder looked at he twisted my hand/wrist just right and I was squalling like a baby in a heartbeat with pain shooting up the whole length of my arm and severe cramping in my forearm/bicep.
I've never experienced pain before like that in my life even through multiple events of pulled muscles, sprains and such.
As the Rolling Stones remarked...What a drag it is getting old.

That be it!

[TheMom]

and how could you go on a road trip in Texas, without it being filling?

It feels like I gained 5 lbs on this short road trip!

Saturday we ate breakfast around 10:00, and we did not want to eat again until around 7:00.

[TheMom]

I think I can actually make this one.

Awesome!

BTW - Allegra & I brought home some gingerbread dudes for you. We are having a get together at gunners next Saturday, they will be there waiting for you to pick them up.

[TheMom]

I am soooooo looking forward to that shrimp creole!

[TheMom]

Damn sorry to hear that ~ both about the work & the shoulder. I do hope both problems clear up real soon.

[TheMom]

Assuming Mrs alfa6’s knee job goes well I will see you for the breakfast gig, that looks yummy

Hope the surgery & recovery for the Mrs. goes off without a hitch.

I could not decide what I wanted from breakfast, so I had to do the eeny-meenie-miney-mo method to choose.

[philman_36]

I do hope both problems clear up real soon.
The work might, the shoulders won't for quite some time. I'll just have to deal with it until I can get it doctored up.

[thackney]

BTTT

Thanks for the report.

[stevie_d_64]

BOLO alert...

Consider them armed and safe...

[Allegra]

Thank you ladies for the route recon:-)

We enjoyed it!

I hope all goes well with Mrs. alfa6's knee work.
