We Made it!!!

Well what can I say, I guess it took us moving all the way to Texas for us to start a blog. I don't have a clue what I am doing and am the most computer illiterate person out there, but I am learning.

We had a few nice greetings on the way here...
#1.






Nothing like driving in the dark mountains while the snow is falling and ice is on the streets. That was a pleasant surprise.

#2.





A family of these friendly critters walked across the street just as we approached Amarillo Texas. It was a warm welcome. :) I called Andy just after seeing them and said " Did you just see those HUGE spiders crossing the road!?" He said " Those were spiders!? I thought they were crabs!!!" Yep they were that big.

I'm sure most people have never heard of this place, but it is famous for it's challenge. It is called The Big Texan challenge. They challenge you to eat 72 oz steak (4 1/2 lbs), baked potato, salad and a roll.


If you can eat all of that in one hour then you will get it for free! It's nuts. A few people have accomplished this and one man ate two. YIKES!! This restaurant was a lot of fun. We didn't eat there, but there was lots to do there. Maybe by looking at the pics you'll have a desire to come visit us just to see this place. :)

Well as you can see from all of these pictures, everything really is bigger in Texas. Who woulda known?
