Texas time with the Hathaways and Bonnemas

Bruce and I finally got to see the Hathaways in their new home in Montgomery. They seem to be doing well in spite of Cindy having to go through chemo again. It was great to visit with them even for a short time.

On the way up north, we stopped to check out the huge statue of Sam Houston near Huntsville.




After that we headed up north of Dallas to see my cousins, Rog and Marcy and second cousins, Arch and Sherry, and 3rd and 4th cousins--Kelly, Covey, Austin, Boone, Tag and Jayden in McKinney Tx. Jacob was off in Botswana, so we missed him.




We had a great time visiting, eating and just hanging out. We went to the ranch to see the horses and other animals.








Rog and Marcy gave us a tour of the Croatian village being built near there home. All the buildings are modeled after those in Croatia, even Starbucks! It was refreshing to see the Biblical aspects incorporated into it. There is a statue of the dove from the ark being sculptured and Bible verses in other areas as well as a wedding chapel already built.
