Christmas In Texas


My Brother Wayne and All Of His Family

This will be the first time in a long, long time that I've been able to celebrate Christmas with my brother Wayne and his family. Jerry and I were looking forward to it. Even though our children will miss us at Christmas time they are glad we have this opportunity.

We really had a good time being with Wayne, Myrte and their family during Christmas. My niece Gerry Beth fixed a real good dinner and we spent the day talking about old times and getting to know the new relatives. It was truly an enjoyable Christmas. We would like to do it again soon while we're all still here.


These pictures were not taken during Christmas but I thought they would be appropriate here.

Tarpley, Texas

On December 14 we arrived at Caribbean Cowboy RV Resort in Tarpley Texas. The park is small but it's real nice and quiet. They have a lot of activities here to keep you occupied and the owners are real nice and friendly. It's not too far from Kerrville, Fredericksburg or San Antonio either.

The Texas Hill Country is really beautiful even in the winter time. The weather here is very mild and not at all cold like it is back in Montgomery.

Bandera Texas, The Cowboy Capital Of The World is only ten miles from us. It's a small town of 975 but they have a lot of interesting things to see and do there. On the Court House Square they had a Cowboy Nativity Scene there.

Since Bandera is the Cowboy Capital Of The World what would you expect for Christmas?

End Of Holiday Season

We had a very enjoyable Thanksgiving with our children, grand children and great grand children and their families. As usual we ate too much but then that only happens once a year.

We had Christmas with our daughters and families here in Montgomery and we really had a good time.We had a wonderful dinner at Billie's home and the food was out of this world.

On December 11th we had Christmas at Karen's home in Meridian MS. We had our two grand daughters and their families there too. Again we had a wonderful dinner at Karen's and a big Christmas tree with all the kids and great grand kids too.

We had to move up our Christmas with our family here because we have Christmas plans with my brother in San Antonio Texas. We'll leave here in a day or two and head back to Texas.

Our children don't really like the idea that we're not going to be here for a long time but they have learned to get use to it after several years of our being on the road so much.
