Lubbock 2012

Recently Ronnie Hope and I went with Bethany to Lubbock.  She was working. We went along to take care of little Audrey and were able to visit Ronnie’s cousin Carrie and her husband Lance, do a little sight seeing along the way and enjoy some of the interesting aspects of Lubbock.  The girls had a wonderful time together.  I really think it was good for them.  Here they are in front of the Crosby County Courthouse.  Ronnie loves to take pictures of Courthouses and so we always take little side trips when we travel to get a few more for his collection.

IMG_2513Here the girls are looking down a “Prairie Dog” hole…wonder what they would have done if one had stuck his cute little head up while they were sitting there!! This was in a park in Lubbock where they have what they call a Prairie Dog Town.  We were able to watch them from afar coming and going between the little mounds.   IMG_2493

Our hotel was nice and Hope and Audrey did not seem to mind posing for pictures!IMG_2586IMG_2750IMG_2741IMG_2743IMG_2744IMG_2642IMG_2641IMG_2558IMG_2553IMG_2562IMG_2528

Not sure if you can see the “Jack Rabbits” in the above photos but we went to a museum there and the rabbits live on the grounds and children have a ton of fun chasing them…it was so hot but that did not slow down Hope and Audrey they chased and chased and chased those rabbits. Lucky the rabbits were just a bit faster than our girls.IMG_2794IMG_2807IMG_2809IMG_2791IMG_2821We also experienced a bit of a Lubbock sand storm.IMG_2834Hope managed to talk Dad into new Cowgirl boots…Woo Hoo.  Audrey got her pink (of course) boots for her birthday.IMG_2848IMG_2881IMG_2876IMG_2874

Have you ever seen the movie “The Last Picture Show?”

All in all we had fun…poor Beth had to work most of the time!
