Trip to Brady

The day started off quite early, 5:30 to be exact. We hit the road at about 5:45 coffee in hand. The kids were actually pretty good. The griping didn't start until about 6:00.......

We arrived in Brady about 10 after a few potty breaks, and of course a stop at Starbucks. My Dad's mom lives in Brady which was the purpose of our trip. We had a great day, Granny had made 2 german chocolate cakes-from scratch. One for my family and one for Mom and Dad.

She met my son for the first time, and fell in love. J's 3, but he had not been on previous trips. Granny gave Meg some jewelry, and J a piggy bank. We ate at Hard 8 BBQ. Very good-if you go thru, get the turkey-surprisingly moist....

Granny is dying to get the measuring cups that Paula Deen has been using lately. They're made from pewter-very pretty. She's not computer savvy, so asked me to locate them. I called her this morning with the news. The good-I found them, the bad-they're $158.00......
We both decided they're not that pretty.....

We left at about 3:30 and got home a bit before 8.

It was a great trip.
