While I was at Mither’s and Pop’s house, my auntiepoo, Merrinette, had a birthday! Like the outstanding family we are, we made her come to see us so we would have a reason to celebrate invited her over and we sat around and giggled and ribbed one another until we could no longer stand it and we did what anybody in Texas does when having their birthday with their sister and niece and grand-daughter. We went out for Mexican food. And oh, it was sooooo good.
Here’s a shot of Merrinette and Taylee, her lovely grand-daughter.
Note the crown of significance on her head. BIRTHDAY GIRL!
Here she is sporting a different crown. This one is a bit more…less slutty laid back than the, ahem, after five one above. It never hurts a girl to have a good choice of crowns. And please take a moment to notice how well her hair poofed up behind it,(we DO live in Texas, after all), AND the sparkle in her eyes.
And here’s the evil siblings sisters themselves! Merrinette and Kerry Lynda. AKA Auntiepoo and Mither. Here comes trouble!
And it wouldn’t be a post of pictures of the two of them without the gratuitous shot of them trying vainly to have only the one chin. Yes, that is exactly what they’re doing. There is nothing unusual on the ceiling.
Did I mention they’re a little nuts and I come by it quite honestly? Yeah, well…..ya know.
Moving right along.
Fajitas!!!! And we ate and ate and ate. And then we were so full we decided we needed to take a nap.
BUT! Before we returned we went by one of my favorite places in Decatur!
Here are Mither and Auntiepoo going into the wonderful, magical Main Street Home and Gardens. Possibly my favorite place ever. Other than Mither’s! And Auntiepoo’s! Whew! Couldn’t forget that!
Here are just a few pics to whet your appetite until tomorrow when I show you all around the place! It really is a magic spot and besides, it’s where I get the black magic stuff to keep H in line we are all going to have lunch the next time I go visit. Sadly, we didn’t have time this day.
Free Toes, everybody!
It has to be awesome when those two get together!

OMG… just this weekend taking family pics, I too, did the “let’s try to look like we have one chin” maneuver!! I know it well.
That store does look divine! I could see myself spending hours and tons of money there.

I have heard that thing in Texas are bigger! My mouth is watering looking at that fabulous plate of food, and the nursery looks like a great place to spend an afternoon.
Yes I will have to admit, we had a lovely day, no doubt about it, but I will also have to admit any time the three of us are together we have a lovely time.. We are a very close group, mother used to say Kerry and I were as bad as Simese twins.. We never knew exactly what she was talking about, but we were assured she didn’t like it.. There were a lot of things she didn’t like about us.. What can I say??
But, I love AAAAAAALL of that!
Love that picture of the little bend in the path. Where oh where could that take SSG … I’m sure there is a fire station right around the corner, right?

I swear it doesn’t ;look like Minnet and Mither have aged a day in the last 15 years. I am crushed. I look 20 years older than I did 15 years ago.
After all that, I have forgotten what the post says and what I was going to respond with because there is a stone yard in a picture. I love stones. Wow. I need to stone a huge portion of my yard. I’m in love with that.
