As Promised...One More Texas Post
I was invited to Girls Night Out, even though OBVIOUSLY I am not a GIRL! When you are stuck in purse, you go where you are toted.
The evening began with S'Mores at Halcyon. What a fun place! One of the guests said, "I feel like I am in a foreign film and expect to see subtitles pop up at any mintute."
My fear of fire kept me from being in the picture.
We followed S'Mores up with a trip to the Irish pub (Fado') next door. I was forced to drink copious amounts of Guinness. 


All in all, it has been a great time here in Texas. I can't wait to see where I go next!

So Much to Do...So Little Time
Well, my time here is drawing to a close. So much has happened since I last posted.
First I went to a trunk or treat event at the church. The family had fun decorating the truck. I even got in on the action.

We decorated it honor of Gary's brother who is serving in Iraq. He is a big Oklahoma State Cowboys fan. Considering Gary is an OU guy, that took a lot of compromise. But Gary would do just about anything for his little brother.
On Monday, Gary took me golfing. It wasn't just any old golf outing either. It was a tournament to raise money for the Hope Pregnancy Center - a place where Annemarie's father spent countless hours volunteering to counsel men and women about crisis pregnancies and parenting.

Gary played 100 holes for the fundraiser and carried me along. Having never golfed, I wasn't much good in the advice area, but I enjoyed the view while I was there.
This will not be my last post from Texas, however. Today is Annemarie's birthday and her friends are taking her for a Girls Night Out on Saturday. They said I could come along even though I am a boy. I will share with you on Sunday, provided my host can wake up and turn on the computer for me.
