Texas : Day 3

 
Today we went on a safari with the Quinn's and Mabb's. Today was not the ideal day as it was POURING buckets of water. We had made reservations and could not cancel so off we went. As soon as we stepped on the safari bus, the rain came down. It wasn't too bad at first but then came the wind with the rain and nobody was safe anywhere on the bus.
  I have tons of pictures but I only put 2 on. To make it up to our poor tourtured and emotionally damaged children, we had to visit the gift shop to make it all well again.
  The Quinn's and Mabb's had enough and headed home. We went on to Dublin Texas to go to the Dr. Pepper plant. It was not the big hoopla we had expected but fun nevertheless. We bought shirts, hats, Dr. Pepper syurp, jelly beans, and even Dr. Pepper beef jerky.
 We did not go on to the tour as we were late again and missed it.
Tonight Chrissy, Donelle, and I locked ourselves in Donelle's room and watched 2 hours of the Biggest Loser. The kids survived as did Jon and Cole as they watched a basketball game. Tomorrow we are going back to the "money making place" and get on the tour as we missed it yesterday. We are then on to Dallas to see where JFK got shot. I want to see this the most as I've seen all those history docementries on it. We miss you Jenn and family and wish you were with us.

Will you be sharing any of your Dr. Pepper stuff with the family? Nisha...you look so miserable and wet in that picture, but it sounds like you are having fun.

I'm impressed on the blog updates so quick! Looks like you guys are having a blast - even in the rain. Wish we could be there. Give the Quinn's a huge hug from us!
