At the Riverwalk

Fun at the Riverwalk...

 

Toting strollers up and down stairs

Old San Antone

Today we travelled back in time at the Witte Museum in San Antonio.  First, a treat for Ezra - we rode to the museum on the Zoo train.  He was enthralled!

At the museum we spent most of our time in the newer South Texas History exhibit, riding, learning about horn furniture, and pumping water. 

 

What cute farmhands!

 

The HEB Science Treehouse was fun, too.

 

Then we took a quick walk through the Alamo before closed for the evening.

 

A Few Boaz Favorites

To celebrate Grandpa Boaz's upcoming birthday, we pulled out a few Boaz family classics:

 

Gyoza

 

Kevin consults the notebook of recipes his mom made for him when he went away to college.  It includes his long-time favorites like gyoza, German pancakes, meatballs and rice, and even ramen!

Ezra tried gyoza, but said, "I don't yike (like) it!"

Texas Sheath Cake
This recipe is another Boaz family favorite from Grandmother McNabb's recipe box.  Of course, here in Texas they just call it "Sheath Cake"! 

Canasta

 

Kevin and his folks love to play Canasta.  We've played many a hand around the card table at their house.  This evening Abby got her first Canasta lesson!



Rub A Dub

Abby loves her tub!  And now she knows how to blow her own bubbles, too.

Abby's First Spiritual Milestone

 

This morning we dedicated Abby to the Lord, with the help of Grandpa Boaz, who has performed all of our babies' dedications.

 

So thankful this morning for the sweet gift of Abigail, Ezra, Johnathan, and Naomi...

 

for the blessing of having Grandma and Grandpa Boaz here for Abby's dedication...

 

for our families and church family who support us in the huge responsibility of raising our children...

 

and God's grace to do it!

 

 

Just Cute
