My husband and I spent nearly two weeks in Texas with my daughter, her husband and three boys to celebrate their tenth anniversary. Traveling with my grandchildren was so much fun. They were so entertaining. I wanted the boys to learn about the Alamo before we arrived there so I downloaded the book What Was the Alamo? on my kindle and read it to them on the way. I was surprised that they actually listened and enjoyed it and learned from it.
I also took along a quilt that I have been working on for a while and was able to finish it up as we drove in the van. Here it is. The pattern is called Cotton Harvest and it's designed by Vicki Bellino of Bloom Creek.
Here are some pictures from our visit to the Alamo.
Here's the book I read to the grand kids. I thought it was very informative and it went into great detail on those famous figures that were involved in the Alamo.
