July 30, 2013

It was a busy weekend at the Retreat, with Dan and Anita and Sydney from Washington, Lee and Myrna Marriott from Edmond, and Drew and Jenna from Texas all here for a visit.  Andy smoked a beef brisket and Drew brought fresh flour tortillas from HEB store in Austin.  We ate brisket tacos for dinner with a chocolate sheet cake for dessert.  Sydney couldn't get enough of it! 


The weather was perfect for sitting outside and watching the hummingbirds come to the feeder. Tim and Sherry stopped by for a visit.  The kids stayed up late, talking.  It all reminded me of the days when Andy and I would come here to visit granddad.  The next day, Andy got the Desoto out and took everyone for a ride through town. 



The front windows on the theatre are etched with an art deco design by Drew and it was the first time he and Jenna got to see the finished work.  Andy and I are both proud of him and his work. Now the Liberty Theatre has touches of two generations of Barretts
.
On Friday we did our Liquid ART at the Whirlwind Winery.  We didn't have a big crowd but those of us there enjoyed the evening.  I can't believe more people don't come to this inexpensive evening of fun!
