mission trip

11.25.14

Your mission trip might be different than MY mission trip…sayin’ that, this crazy momma & poppa will do anything  ANYTHING, for their kids!  (Thank GOD we only have 2!!!) Hence began the driving around on our mission trip, asking everyone we know (even random peeps), where we can find whatever they’re needing if we don’t already know where to find it.

So, let’s REWIND to late August when we were getting ready to visit the “B” family and a certain little Texas gal kept requesting several things she can’t get in the midwest…”momma can you please put my fave Texas pickles on “the list”, oh, can you add Homeslice Pizza, and a Saltgrass salad, OH-OH  and a Kroger cake?”

Boy did I feel like a heel when we find out she IS prego and the only thing I brought her were her pickles…:(

So this time around, we weren’t gonna make the same mistake…out the door gussied up and ready to kick doors down with my “get outta my way” boots cause I’m on a mission!

A stop at where else…Buc-ee’s (New Braunfels) for jerky.

and hang with this wonderful little girl & son of mine in the midwest for Thanksgiving.  When we were almost to KC I remembered how much both kids (♥) Oklahoma Joe’s in Kansas City… so slight detour to stand in line for an hour-long wait…

Made it in time for dinner (Oklahoma Joe’s bbq) and family time, and planning on much more of that!  We are now planning on the menu, shopping and sightseeing along with some (much looking forward to) down time.

Here’s wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving  and lots of family time to you from GCC~
