long drives and longhorns

  • We logged over 1200 miles this weekend . . . drove from here to Lexington on Thursday and from Lexington to Lincoln on Friday . . . and all the way home yesterday.  Bennett (and Brux) does quite well in the car.
  • I was able to have Mom's home cooking for lunch and Grandma's home cooking for dinner (killer coconut cream pie!!!) on my birthday Friday.  Karah and I saw lots of friends and family while in Lincoln and had a great time despite the "L" to the Longhorns. 
  • Bennett got to spend 2 nights on the farm without his parents (Freedom!).  It's probably the first time in 30 years Joe and Linda had to watch a baby overnight(s).  It was also the first time Karah had been away from Bennett overnight.  All parties (grandparents, parents, and child) survived without injury.

  • Brux had a hell of a good time at the Bar Ten Kennel while we were in Lincoln.  As a side note, Bruxy has a surgery tomorrow to remove a mass from his chest (he's also getting his teeth cleaned - attack the plaque!  I'd do it myself if I could get him to sit still for a millisecond).  We are hoping no exciting news comes back with the pathology report. 
  • Karah has had exclusive rights to Bennett baths . . . until tonight.  I got him all cleaned up while K and Brux ran errands.  The kid loves the water! 
  • Bennett is getting this jumping thing down now:
