I have to admit...

When Brooke begged me for these at the Grocery store, I thought to myself, how can they turn a cookie into a straw? I have to admit...they are pretty good. Doesn't really taste like an Oreo Cookie but it's a great way to drink the leftover milk in your cereal bowl with a little "manners".

We went to Lou Lou's house and as soon as Blaine disappears....we know he must be upstairs! There is something he finds fascinating with her lipstick! Its every time we visit too....

SONIC

OK, Jerilynn made me start thinking of Chick-Fil-A....so food is on the brain!

I heard on the radio that Amarillo Area Sonic's are having Customer Appreciation Day! It kicks off on Friday night at 6:00 for $.99 SHAKES (The strawberry is wonderful) and ALL DAY HAPPY HOUR on Saturday with hamburgers only $.99. So...if you love Sonic drinks, food or ice cream....it's a great weekend to drive in!

Jer - go get your Dr. Pepper!

Camp Week

We dropped Brooke off at Hidden Falls Camp last night! She was so excited! Her camp counselor, Allison, asked "What is the first thing you want to do, swim or ride horses"? I'll give you one guess at her decision!
They have a full week of activities planned that ends with a rodeo on Friday evening at 6:30. We will eat around the campfire before leaving. The camp overlooks the beautiful Palo Duro Canyon!

You can send her an email by putting BROOKE HENRY in the subject line of the email to: hfr@midplains.coop.

Lake Weekend with the Cook's

One of the FUNNEST trips to the lake ever was this past weekend. It's been hard not to think about walking out to the water (only four feet from our trailer door steps) and hop on a float for hours! The kids had a wonderful time too. Blaine learned how to fish and was pretty much the whole weekend with his new fishing buddy, Kyler. Brooke pretty much went tubing with anyone and everyone that would take her. A friend, Jack, had one that she could stand up on like a chariot! Our three travel trailers took up 1/2 the sandy beach. It was great...almost like having our own private "island". HA!

New Moon Movie Posters

Check these out! A few of us are thinking of putting a few shirts together for all to wear for the Movie Premiere...who wouldn't want to wear this?

Sweet Reunion

We had a sweet reunion with our kids after 7 days apart! We drove straight in Wednesday night to find only Brooke awake at 12:00 am. Mom fell asleep in the chair and Blaine on the sofa. We had a wonderful visit with lots of swimming in the lake and water skiing. We found out the hard way that we are not as "young" as we used to be and only went skiing twice! We watched the fireworks on floats in the water and could see about 4 different firework shows all at the same time. Jeff was amazed and commented that he'd never seen anything so "cool".

Here's Brooke & Blaine on 4th of July in Mom's Golf Cart. We decorated it for the 4th of July Parade! That was fun!

I took Brooke this morning to see Diamond. It was great to see them together again!

There's nothing like the love between a girl and her horse!
