The kids and I headed to Abilene while Matt went down to SXSW. We were supposed to spend Thurs-Sun in Abilene and then join him in Liberty Hill. But things didn't go exactly as planned. We found out on Saturday that Aunt Gerri died the night before. That meant the kids and I traveled to Paris on Sunday night. We had the funeral and big family dinner on Monday, then returned to Abilene on Tuesday. Just a few hours after our return, we got big news from Matt about his acceptance into a film festival in Dallas. That meant further traveling to Dallas for the weekend (while the kids remained in Abilene). We returned from Dallas on Sunday, picked up the kids, and made it home to Midland just before bedtime.
In between all the long drives, we squeezed in two trips to the children's museum, Six Flags for me & my sisters, picnics, artwork at the literature museum, bike rides, and other fun stuff.
We had Chick-fil-A in Pepaw's office building on Friday.

These kids are all related somehow, just don't ask me to explain it.

LOL Never ask for an explanation of how we are related to who....
The pics are great. It was good to see everyone. Thankfully, our family can rejoice in the passing of one's life to the gates of Heaven where we await yet a larger reunion.
