Sunday April 12, 2015

We worshipped with Marble Falls congregation this morning, great lessons and singing. We then were invited to join the Barnes’ small group, Family First at the home of John and Bonnie Whittle for a lovely lunch of pulled pork, Trudy’s amazing pies and Becky’s banana cake.

John drove us around the Willow City Loop to enjoy the 
wildflowers.

Say  "Cheese" Becky!







A feral hog, ranchers shoot these as they are very destructive, digging up everything.


Only in Texas!


And of course, blue bonnets!

Joseph Bird is also in Becky's family tree

  1. Actually Joseph Bird was not my ancestor. My grandmother was born there and my grandparents lived there in the early 1900s. The carriage house and hotel (not shown) were built by my dad's widowed grandmother and her son. It was a stage stop.
