Back on the Road, Christmas and a New Addition…

f

With the RV repaired we left Water Valley town park cautiously optimistic there would be no further issues. Since we were a little behind schedule to be in San Antonio for the Christmas holidays we drove all the  way to the Gillespie County Fairgrounds in Fredericksburg Texas.

We skipped stopping at Mason Texas where I had hoped to meet up with a friend but we certainly felt a bit better making it to a more populated part of Texas given our recent RV issues.. We figured if we had more problems we would be more likely able to find mechanics. Since we have visited Fredericksburg many times before we just took a scenic drive through he hill country before settling in for the evening.

The next morning we made our way over to Potters Creek COE CG where would stay through the Christmas holidays. The next morning we drove the CRV to San Antonio to spend Christmas with our son and his family. It has been a while since we spent the holidays with family so we were looking forward to it. Besides, Jason, our son, wanted me to help him build an outdoor kitchen while we were there.

We spent most of the week working on the outdoor kitchen of which many of today’s pictures depict its progress.Jason and Kelly treated us to a huge feast on Christmas Day It was fun gathering in the kitchen for the preparations and everything was delicious.

We also savored family time with our son, his wife, our grandson Cameron, granddaughter Adrianne and our new great grandbaby Christopher. Yes that’s right we are now great grandparents and it was fun getting to know the new addition to the family.The family dogs joined in the fun and also seemed very glad to see us as every time we sat down they came by for some love..

While the time we spent with Jason and his family went quickly we certainly enjoyed this extended stay over the holidays. Sharon especially enjoyed making different Christmas cookies each day as well as holding and cuddling with our new great grandchild. Wow, I still can’t get over the fact we have a great grandchild. Guess that means we are getting old… Nahhhh!

We hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas holidays and I am sure we are all looking forward to a Happy New Year!

NOTE: We are currently in south TX in La Feria…
