Visiting Fort Worth

Dad and Sandy trekked out for a quick weekend to visit and to be at Paige's baby blessing. We're grateful they were able to come. After we picked them up at the airport, we headed straight for Fort Worth on a gorgeous day.

I think we've got a picture of Tessa with this cowboy statue for every time we've been here:

There was a small concert going on outside one of the main buildings, so we stopped to listen for bit. Cole found himself a prime sitting stump, while Tessa danced to the music. (Hopefully the video at the bottom of the post is working so you can a see a little of her show.)

Since, I'm told, it's the grandparents' job to spoil the grandkids, Cole and Tessa walked away from a gift store with these light up twirly globe things that kept them entertained for days. Dad walked away with a t-shirt that said "Old People Rule" and had a picture of John Wayne on the front. Just as it should.

Here we were waiting for the longhorn cattle drive down the street that they do twice a day.

I really like this picture of Tessa and her grandma. Windswept beauties. And a light up twirly globe thing.
As you can guess, Cole's boots and hat combo were a hit here. The older cowboys we came across were clearly proud of the two year old who kept his hat on.
We ate at Joe T. Garcia's, which we really like, but a Ft. Worth judge Jake met while working told him that it wasn't worth beans compared to another place he loves. I guess we need to find a reason to get back out to Ft. Worth so we can try this other Mexican restaurant.

Fort Worth is fun, and it's even more fun with family in town....and the sun is shining.
