Our Pilgrimage to Tulia

A couple of weekends ago Bob and I took our first road trip since our Alaska haul. We spent the weekend catching up with Bob's family. It was a great weekend! It is really nice that we're only 5½ hours from some family now.

Bob's niece has four gorgeous kids now, and we were finally able to play with her youngest three. The last time we were in Tulia, her oldest was just a toddler. The twin girls are now 14 months old. They were preemies not due until May, so they are petite little girls, and so sweet.

Here's the number two great-nephew. He was pretty quiet, but fun to watch.















The oldest great-nephew is in first grade now and such a great big brother. He is so good to the younger three (and Mom). He's peeking out of an indoor play tent here.















We ended our weekend by visiting with Bob's Aunt and Uncle, and cousins. Aunt Cindy cooked a wonderful lunch. She always feeds us when we come to visit. I hope they'll let us do the same for them sometime now that we're living this close. Uncle "Red" raises goats (actually Aunt Cindy does more of the raising...lol). We got to see some baby goats that were just a few days old. Cindy is feeding a baby that was rejected from its mom. It was soooooooo cute!

I was able to capture this picture of Uncle "Red" and Bob. Uncle "Red" is Bob's Dad's brother. I see so much of "Red" in Bob.


I could resist taking this video. The baby goat was having a hard time finding her food, and that sqeeky funny-sounding cry is the baby goat. She was hoarse from crying so much.
