Grandfathers are for loving and fixing things. ~Author Unknown

We headed up to Dallas/Fort Worth this weekend for Marcia's wedding.  (wedding photos to come. stay tuned!)  We stayed with my Dad in Fort Worth.  The kids were very excited about hanging out with Grandpa and, of course, getting in some hot tubbin'!

 Peace out.
Kiss for big brother

Grandpa is way fun!

We headed out for dinner at {Chef Point Cafe}, which is a 5 star restarant in a gas station which has been featured on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives on the Food Network.  I went in to put our name on the list and the hostess said the wait would be at least an hour.  So, we went looking for an alternative... Lexi fell asleep almost right away in the car while we went to three other places.  All three had terribly long wait times!  So, we headed back to Chef Point Cafe, where my name had sat firmly on the list.  We went in and waited... and waited... and waited...
 and waited...
 and waited.. Lexi was still asleep (my hands fell asleep twice holding her)... and Justus whined about how hungry he was.  I'm pretty sure I'm assuring him that he won't starve to death for another three days in this photo.
 His tune changed when he finally tasted the Macaroni and Cheese.  Epic!  Best Mac & Cheese EVER!
Lexi slept right through ordering.  When she woke up the owner was standing near the table and sweetly offered to bring her anything she wanted.  Another Mac & Cheese?  Coming right up!
 Jeremy had the French Cut Pork Chop, my Dad had the Blackened Stuffed Chicken, and I had the Lobster Bisque.  All unbelievable.  All delicious! Awesome meal, Dad/Grandpa!  Thanks!

If you haven't been, you need to go!
Pay no attention to the bunny ears behind my head.

Watchin' A Christmas Story at Grandpa's

My dad kept the kids while we went to the rehearsal and wedding.  They had a great time together:  playing Legos, watching movies and playing video games on his huge screen TV, swimming in the hot tub, and just chillin'.  Thanks, Dad!  You're the best!
