Back on the road again. And yes, it’s back to Waco. We have a rather packed long weekend this time. Caleb has a playoff football game tonight in some far away town in the middle of nowhere.
Tomorrow after church we are supposed to go check in for the Texas Baptist Convention. Then tomorrow evening the boys have their youth group annual Turkey Bowl football tournament (it’s supposed to rain).
Monday is the convention, then Luke has his first basketball game of the season.
And Tuesday it’s back to the Convention. I’m sure AnnaGrace has some dancing going on in there somewhere, too.
We get home Wednesday, and I have to get together a Bible study for home group. Oh, and we also have to get a passle of turkeys and the oil to fry them in for Thanksgiving sometime. Whew! Told you it was a packed week!
We had a little excitement on US 290 on our way to Waco. Traffic was slowed to a crawl. Finally we advanced enough to see the issue. Police had a guy in custody on the feeder road near what I assumed was his car. Not sure what the guy did, but they got him.
We made it into Waco with little fanfare. Stopped for some gas, then settled in at the Vaughan Plantation. Zak and Lindsay were there for a while. Then she left to teach a dance class. Josh left to coach his basketball team. Christi and Zak took Luke to a birthday party (where his Crush was gonna be one of the invited guests). We hung out with AnnaGrace and watched a movie starring talking dogs.
We all went out for dinner at a local restaurant. One of the best chicken fried steaks I have had in a long time. They didn’t have either of the pie slices that I wanted, though. But it was fun hanging out with the family. And then we went back to the house and watched an Avengers movie.
Psalms 139:9-10 says, If I fly on the wings of the dawn and settle down on the western horizon, even there your hand will lead me; your right hand will hold on to me.
Father, thanks for the safe trip up here. Be with us on this football journey. Amen.
