Saturday with Nana & Pawpaw Carlos

(the kids with Carlos & the truck)

This morning Paula called me an asked if the kids would like to go ride in the big truck(he has a big 18wheeler truck an trailer), and of course I asked an they said YES!!!! They love riding in Pawpaw Carlos's truck every time they see Paula or Carlos they ask "ride in pawpaw truck". Or even when we see a truck on the road they ask. They love his truck to say the least. Well they were going to come here but there isn't much to see in Mansfield these days besides houses, so I said I would bring them out there so they could see horses an cows. On the phone Paula had mentioned going to a horse ranch so they could see horses. An I figured we would just drive thru, but we got out an walked all around. So we headed out that way to Aledo, we got to Nana's house. An as soon as we get to Nana's house Addi runs over to the truck. She is ready to go. So we had to plead with her to come inside to get a blanket for the back part of the truck an she thought we weren't going to ride so she started crying an saying " ride ride." We finally convinced her she was going to ride an she stopped for a few minutes. We got the stuff an headed out to ride an find some cows an horses. It is much prettier out there than driving around here, I think.

So we loaded up an away we went to find horses, an cows. We saw lots of them on the way. Then we stopped at the horse ranch where Carlos usually picks up some poop from. An we got out an looked at the beautiful horses that were all around us. We probably walked around for about an hour or so. Looking at all the horses there.
Here are a few pics

Then we headed inside the stables an pet some horses. The kids weren't afraid at all. Well Landon was a little standoffish but he got over that quick.


Then we got back into the truck an drove around some more. An by that time it was lunch time so we went back to Nana's to get the car an we headed out to lunch at McDonald's to let them blow off some more energy. It was a great day! Thanks Nana & Pawpaw Carlos. They had a blast! It was cute listening an talking bout their day with them.
