Jack and I made our premier flight to Texas to visit Sheila, Dan, Mackenzie and Chester while Aaron went to London for work. Jack was a trooper to and from Texas despite long delays. We had a marvelous visit and can't wait for the next one. I am happy to report that Sheila and Dan have embraced Texas life down to the cowhide-covered chairs in the dining room and yes, LIVE cattle in the backyard beyond their fence. We relaxed around their beautiful home and took in the glorious weather poolside. We also visited some neighboring towns and "the square" in Southlake, which currently has an exhibit of local artists' renderings of the mighty longhorn. On the baby-development front, Jack is on the brink of crawling. He also now has two teeth! We have concluded that Jack must have springs for leg bones because he actually gets air in his doorway jumper. We've added another nickname to his repertoire: "Jumpin ' Jack Flash." We love you Sheila, Dan, and Mackenzie! You sure know how to treat this little cowboy!
