Sister time

I spent the last few days in Dallas visiting Denise.  She is not only my sister, but my best friend.  We always, always have a good time when we're together.  I got there on Sunday and Mark took us to Chef Point Cafe.  It is a very unique place.  It's a five star restaurant located in a gas station!  It's even been featured on the Food Network.  The food is absolutely delicious, and we really enjoyed it.  

Monday we went to a conference featuring Thelma Wells.  Every speaker and performer was great.  I can't decide which was my favorite; Lisa Smith who signed the songs, the harpist who played beautiful music on her harp, or Thelma Wells who inspired us with a wonderful message mixed with joy and laughter.

Tuesday we went to visit Angie.  I was so eager to see her new house, meet her sweet baby, Chase, and visit with Sarah and Adam.  Unfortunately, Adam was at school, so I didn't get to see him.  But I had a great time visiting with Angie, Sarah, and Chase.

Tuesday night Sammy came to visit.  He is one smart cookie and he wanted to play board games.  He beat me at Trouble, Quirkle, and SpongeBob.  I was the banker while he played Monopoly with Denise and Mark.  He really understood the concept of buying property, paying (and collecting) rent, and managing money.  I guess he'll have his priorities in order as far as money is concerned when he grows up.

Wednesday, Denise and I spent the whole day crafting.  We made several things that were really cute.  And the best part was that our investment was very small because we "repurposed" things she had around the house.  

It was just a wonderful visit.  I can't wait to go there again.  And maybe next time I'll remember to take some pictures!
