Wacky Waco Visit


Katie, Lillian, and Kyle in front of their home in Waco. They live about a 20 min. bike-ride from the Baylor campus (when Kyle is biking in that crazy heat!). We were able to spend 9 days together.

Visiting the Cameron Park Zoo - what an excellent zoo! It is well laid-out and we were able to get quite close to the animals. The highlight was when Lillian roared at the brown bear.

Lillian, now 18 months, is better able to explore the playground equipment and go down the slide by herself. So far her favorite area is the swings. She also loves to run around on her tip-toes - and she hardly cries when she trips!

Rosa's Cafe - 3 tacos for $3.33 on Tuesdays. Delicious!! After this meal, we all went home and sat on the couch and groaned with satisfaction (while Lillian ran around the room entertaining us with her jabbering and giggling). No room in our stomachs even for Blue Bell ice cream (Kyle's favorite is lemon ice box pie; Jim likes chocolate brownie overload).


Isn't our niece adorable?!

I'm so glad you've started a blog! I'll look forward to seeing pictures and a hearing a little bit about life in South Africa.

btw, I love Eat, Shoots, and Leaves. Have you read her other book called "Talk to the Hand" on manners?
