okay I got the pictures on but I didn't get the text so we will try again. I guess I need a lesson on blogging. today we went to a wildlife ranch, has you drove through you could feed the animals the food that they gave us when we entered. The animals were all very interested in us and the food. they would put their heads right in the window to see if you had any food. The Imu that is at Zeke and my window wanted the cheetos that Zeke had. He put his head clear in Alashandras window so I rolled ours up. The Gemsbok really wanted to see what was in the car. Zeke really enjoyed the animals. Then Alashandra and Matt got thier internet, Tv and phone hooked up today. So we had to be here when they came. They said between 1 and 3. It was 2:50 when they made it. Well we will see how Everything is tomorrow and hopefully get to The Alamo and the Riverwalk.

Wildlife Ranch

unpacking

since we didn't get to go to Tami's we got alot unpacked today. Everything it put a way in her kitchen. It may not be where she wants it but it is unboxed and in her cupboards. It is pretty well organized. We went out to eat to not at a b-b-que place and it was really good. It was an eventful day I was getting a glass cookie jar to wash it when it broke. I don't know if I hit it on the counter or what but it broke. in the process it cut my arm just above the wrist. It is about 1 1/2 inches long and about 1/2 to 3/4 inches of it should have probably had stitches. But we were here without any vehicle. So we hunted bathroom baxes, or I should say Chris hunted through bathroom boxes looking for some first aid stuff. We souldn't find anything. So we took some strapping tape that we had unpacked today and cut it in to strips like sterie strips and taped it shut. But it keep ozing blood. So after the down pour of rain that we were having Chris walked to the gas station a few blocks away and bought some super glue, and bandaids. We cleaned it up again and super glued it together. Then put new homemade sterie strips over it again. With somebandaids on top of that to hold them on. 0ther than being tender it is doing ok. Grandpa Dean called and said that he wished that I was home. I needed to take care of him. He still don't sound to good on the phone. They put him in the hospital with double pnemonia yesterday. He said that Monday was still a long ways away. I guess if he doesn't start to improve maybe we willo have to see about coming home early. We will see. Tonight they said that he could go home tomorrow,but he still says he doesn't feel good. Well we just got finished watching a movie, so I guess I will go to bed.

change of plans

We went to get the rental car, nothing worked. We tried two different credit cards, that I knew had money available. But I had used them both and the to hotels we stayed in on our way down. But neither card would work. So I gave her our debit card they don't do debit cards. So I gave her cash they don't except cash. So needless to say we didn't get a rental car.
So we won't be going to See Aunt Tami. i came home and checked these card on the internet and they each had plenty of money available. But one was on a fraud watch, since it was used out of the area of normal use. the other wouldn't let it go because there was a pending hotel bill that hadn't cleared. So they should be cleared up tomorrow so maybe we can try again. Love and miss all of you. I don't know why everything has to happen when we leave. Six years ago we leave for Loisville, KY and when we land and turn on cell phones there are several messages that says Grandma Janet fell of the ladder and broke her hip. Now this time Grandpa Dean is put in the hospital with pnemonia. I guess that i should just stay home and take of all of them. But we get to play with zeke tomorrow and put some boxes away. That will be allot of help.

Well we made it to Matt, Alashandra and Zeke's. We made it about 6:30 Texas Time, so that is 5:30 Utah time. ZooZoo was glad to see Grandma and Grandpa . Tomorrow we get to tend him and play with him. you can't believe how he has changed. He will soon have a whole mouthful of teeth. Well i had probably had better go and get ready for bed. By the way we stealing off of someones internet, so i can do this.

Texas trip day 2

Not allot to tell about today. We drove through 8 hours of nothing. We were going to stop at the four corners this morning. but we missed the north turn off somewhere. All of a sudden we were in New Mexico. so that didn't happen. I guess the biggest news of today would be that Chris got propositioned at a gas station. When I came out from buying treats he asked if I saw the chuncky hispanic gal in tight stretch pants walk in there. I said no. then he told me that she just propositioned him. He said he saw her walking towards him with this look on her face, he started shaking his head no She said you don't speak spanish and he said my wife is in side. She turned on her heels and walked into the building. We had a good laugh over that. this gas station was in the middle of no where.
I have to say that New Mexico has some really neat rest areas. They have spent allot more money on them than Utah ever has.
We are in El Paso tonight. Matt says that it is 8 hours from here to San Antonio, in a car. So that means that it will be a little longer than that for us. But we should get there tomorrow. I may not be able to blog because They don't have any internet yet. It should be hooked up on Wednesday. But I can probably get on Tueseday night if we make it to Tami's on tuesday. I think that our plan now is to get to Shannys sunday evening. Stay at her house Monday and tend Zeke while she substitute teaches for Matt while he goes to some training. Then on Monday night thier ward is comeing to help unload the moving van. And then we will get us a rental car. Then we will go to Tami's 3 hours away on tuesday morning and stay until wednesday afternoon. then back to shanny's. We will see how it goes. Well I guess I will go soak in a tub. My hips are killing me from so much seating.

Texas day1

Well we have made it to Cortez, Colorado. This is us as we drive along. sometimes it is hard maneuvering around, and finding a place to park. We have traveled some roads that we have never been on, and we have since some beautiful country.
