Happy Birthday Daddy!!! My dad's b-day was on May 27th and we were all together in Kerrville to celebrate with him. His birthday usually falls right around Memorial Day. This year, his birthday was Sunday and Memorial Day was the following Monday, so it was nice to have the time and extra day together. Since we were in Kerrville, he got to spend most of his birthday weekend relaxing down at our ranch in Comfort. My brother didn't go with us this trip, so it was just my dad and Cody down at the place this time. They had a ball though! They did a little bit of hunting, a lot of relaxing, and also spent some down down on the river. The Guadalupe River runs through our place, and it is breathtakingly beautiful. The Hill Country has gotten quite a bit of rain as of late, so the river was actually up since last summer when we had that terrible drought. We did a lot of eating that weekend at some of our favorite places in Kerrville as well as the little towns near Kerrville. When the boys came in on Sunday (my dad's b-day), it was time to head to lunch and my dad had already chosen his favorite Mexican food restaurant to celebrate his birthday at. So, we loaded up and went to Acapulco for lunch. All of our food was so good and we left that placed more than full! But...we had a birthday cake to cut into when we got home...so we saved a little bit of room for a slice! Dad's favorite cake is German chocolate, and that's just what we got him! We put some really cute "Happy Birthday" candles in the cake, sang Happy Birthday to him, and then had some cake! Soon after that, we loaded up and headed back to Abilene. When we got home, we all unpacked, loved on our four legged babies, and then headed out to a birthday celebration dinner. But first...we had to give him his present! He has been DYING for a Kindle for so long, so we all went in together and got him just that. He is loving it too! One of his favorite things to do is read, so now he can have all his favorite books in one handy little tablet. After he opened his present, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner. Since none of us had to work the next day, we all got a couple of drinks along with dinner...everything was so good! It's been ages since any of us had eaten there, so it was a yummy treat! After dinner, we headed back to our house to sit on the back porch to watch some TV. Dad, mom, and Michael went home first and picked up their dogs to come over for a play date with ours, then headed over. We sat outside for a couple of hours and just enjoyed the cool night breeze and the five doggies playing up a storm! It was a fun birthday...I'm pretty sure he really enjoyed it!!! Happy Birthday Daddy...love you so much!!!
