Road Trip

We've become quite the explorers since our  move to Dallas.  last weekend we decided to head east and check out Lake Tawakoni.  This time, we came across some memorable towns along the way.  On our  way through Terrell, we found a family owned fruit orchard. 

Ham Orchards started by selling peaches out of a pickin' trailer and since have added home-made ice cream, fudge, homemade cobblers, plus hamburgers and hot dogs under a pavilion.  We LOVED the peach and strawberry swirl ice cream the best.

 Colson napping... This boy can sleep!

He couldn't help himself...

we had a pit stop for lunch in Greenville. The chopped beef sandwich was amazing and the banana pudding was delicious.  They had a brisket stuffed fully loaded baked potato on the menu that looked great. Maybe next time?

We finally made it to  Lake Tawokoni State Park. 

Kinley of course found all the baby frogs in the area.  My out to conquer the world first born wanted to take them all home. It took a lot of negotiating but she finally settled to taking just one home.

Yep,  I’m young enough to know I can, old enough to know I shouldn’t, stupid enough to do it anyway... on our way back home, we stopped to pet some free kittens and ended up bringing one home with us.  What was I thinking?!?
