| At the airport - 1st picture in the USA |
Our good friend and neighbor from Germany, Michael, came to visit us yesterday. This is his first time to visit the U.S. There was a St. Patrick's Day event at the Stockyards called "Cowtown Goes Green." This was a free event with pony rides, face painting, and a parade. The event started when we needed to be in the car on the way to the airport. After we picked up Michael, we took him to the Stockyards and made it just in time to see the parade. We ran into some friends, the Tungates, from church, as well as our friend Andria and then later the Proctor family, whom we ate dinner with. The parade was fun and lots of people were there to enjoy it. Michael's only concern was how hot it is in Texas compared to Germany, where it is still snowing. I'm a true southern girl and love the warmer weather. I hope he enjoys it too.
We are looking forward to making memories and taking Michael around to see our part of the world. He had some Texas BBQ last night and we plan on introducing him to Mexican food and other favorites. I will post our events as we do them. Here are a few pictures from yesterday.
