I flew out to Texas on Sunday, Nov 2 to meet Olivia, our 14th grandchild and to see our Texas sons, James & Ryan and their families, and my sister Tricia and her family.
Here we are at Phil's ice house having a burger. Madelyn, London, Gwen & Harrison are all sitting on a green, plaster cow. I am amazed they sat still long enough for me to get this picture.

Madelyn, London & Gwen all enjoying a laugh while playing in the playground at James & Lonna's apartment complex. Ryan & Leslie are getting their drivers licenses changed to Texas ones. I guess that means they are really going to stay in Texas a while.

Madelyn & London sitting on the stairs at their new house in Texas. They are waving to Papa Barlow and want to know why I had to go home to be with Papa. Why can't Papa come to their house, they asked? A very good question. I miss all of them already!

we missed Papa too. But we will see him soon I hope. I love the pictures that you got. I am glad that they seem to sit still for you and your camera. You must really be the special grandma to get their full attention while doing pictures.
We miss you already, it is a good thing that we have a lot of pictures of each other so that we never forget all the fun that we have together.
What cute pictures. I always find myself wanting to go to Austin after seeing your visiting pictures. Someday... I love the one of you and Olivia.

What is it about black crayons that brings out the gothic side of my children...Yes I too am wondering when Papa can come to our house. Maybe you and Brent should rethink the 'second home' thing. Soon we will have more grandkids out here than in Utah, since as Ryan has explained it IS a race. :)
Thank you so much for your visit. It was wonderful to introduce you to Olivia, not to mention send our three year olds in at the crack of dawn for some quality time with grandma. It looks like you got some great pictures of the whole bunch, and I'm glad you were able to see Tricia too. What a treat for us all. Have I mentioned we miss you already too?
fun pictures. I am glad you got to go visit for awhile.
