Wednesday we went to Brenham. We all had lunch at the Brenham airport (50's diner), then the Blue Bell Creamery, and St Claire's miniature horse farm.
Here are some pictures from the Diner.

Here are pictures from the Miniature Horse Farm. These horses are under 34" tall. The foals are born during March, April and May. They grow fast reaching about 90% of their adult height during the first year. The length of their pregnancy is 11 months. So only in the spring will you see the tiny newborns.
Cousin N told his mom that he wanted her to pick him up because "Those big dogs were going to get him!"
The horse below is a year old.

Looks like a great field trip!!
Fun!!!
I think that's the diner that my Orthopedic surgeon cousin flies his plane in for (they call it the $100 hamburger...probably more like $1,000 now with these gas prices!). He's talked about it, so it was cool to see!
Did you happen to have the hamburger? Apparently Dr.'s from all over TX fly in for them!
Wow! That looks like so much fun...I am going to have to take Caleb (he loves horses and "i-ceam!"). Looks like all the cousins had a blast!
