We left Alvin Tuesday morning and drove to Brenham. I had packed a picnic and had found a great park - Fireman's Park with an antique carousel. I had this wonderful vision of us sitting on our blanket in the park and enjoying our picnic while watching Elijah play on the playground. It was beautiful. We pulled into the park and saw a few school buses. Odd we thought, because school won't be out for another week. We turn the corner and see probably 150 elementary kids all over the park grounds. Also, the carousel was closed!! We found a tree (we were running late - no time for a blanket) and had to take turns eating while the other person held onto Elijah to keep him from running off to play with the big kids. He was so excited he couldn't even eat. We quickly ate our lunch and raced back to Blue Bell to make the 1:00 tour. When we got there (at 12:50) they told us they start selling tickets 30 mins early and they had sold out. So we had to get a ticket for 1:30. While we waited we walked around outside...
Old Blue and Elijah
This is a horible pic of me, but Elijah looks so cute in his little hat...
So even though it didn't work out like I had planned (does it ever) we still had a great time! It was probably the ice cream that made all my troubles dissappear!!
