Michael starts Kindergarten

 Mike's mom came to town last weekend for a visit and boy did we have fun.   Grandma also got a chance to help take Michael to his first day of kindergarten.
 
 
We went bowling w/grandma on Saturday night and boy did we have fun.  Michael usually poops out/looses interest after the 1st game and he went the whole 3 games.  We need to go more as it was really fun to see how much fun and better Michael did.
On Sunday we took a trip down to West, Texas. Remember back in April hearing about a HUGE fertilizer plant explosion? The town is a Czhec town and have amazing authentic food and since that it's Mike's heritage we wanted to take Mike's mom. Note to self though, the town is pretty shut down on Sundays.  We need to go back down on a Saturday.  But we had some yummy food and grabbed some Kolachies and Beer Bread to take home.  YUMMY!


These photos don't really do justice, but the devastation to the town was nothing short of jaw dropping.   This town went through a lot and have alot more to go through to rebuild.  We only saw a handful of homes under construction or complete.  We saw a lot of homes in ruins and just the foundations or slabs.
