Culturally Irrelevant

Drove into Corsicana Friday night around 9:30, put the kids down and then caught up with mom and dad ’til 11:30. I love “lakehouse time”. Nobody rushes around or gets in a hurry. There’s never an agenda, and there’s lots of sitting around drinking iced tea, talking, fishing and watching the sunset.

Saturday was a pancake breakfast and “Walk for the Cure” at the local high school. Katy won a chocolate cake and the kids got all sweaty and red-faced, which meant really good sleep last night. Fletcher took me bowfishing last night. No fish, but lots of snakes, one of which he shot with his 410. Jack got to ride Papa’s tractor a few times and Sandy served up a delicious meal…as always! We finished the night off with a fire and s’mores at Nana and Papa’s house. More sugar for Jack before bed…just what he needed!

Anyways, it’s been a great Mother’s Day weekend. Thanks, God, for surrounding us crazy boys with patient, nurturing moms who put up with us, help us, listen to our belly aching and put us in our place when we need it. You Watts moms are amazing!
