Lost Pines - Cedar Creek

A BLESSED time together! Slept hard, played hard, relaxed, ate, and played some more!

They asked us where we'd like to stay; we mentioned tennis courts and were delighted to be assigned a first-floor patio room with the pond, tennis courts and fitness center just outside our room. The lazy river and Colorado River dock were just a short walk away (and free laundry just down the hall - necessary after the tennis and fishing :))

 GAME TIME!

We ate at several different restaurants (five or so to choose from including a general store and a place to order by the pool). The last evening we splurged on a nice dining room meal and played spades while we waited for our food and after. We had such a wonderful time!

Backyard play

This is a play Faith and a friend wrote, planned.  It is based on the story of Moses.  We did it in our backyard and families came to watch.

 

Smith Cruise

We had a really wonderful cruise on Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas.

 It was nice of that stranger to smile for our picture.

 They had really fun things to do on the ship.

 This picture with the happy, smiling fish is one of my favorites!  See him?  There is only one who is really smiling.

 Climbing Dunns River Falls in Jamaica was a blast!

 Mason and I snorkeled near this guy.  He really wanted to play.

 The Aggie family is something.  Mallory recognized this Ag's ring so we started talking.  He is 92 and his wife (of a few days  - they had just married) was 91.  He told us fascinating stories about being at A&M and leaving to go fight in WWII.  His stories about being a navigator in the war and his plane being shot were so interesting.  This wife's former husband was a classmate of his at A&M.
