I took Will, Ames, and Carol over to Bryan's house in the Woodlands. It was really great to see him and David. Even though it is in the Houston area, it is 57 miles across town. David had invented a game, something he has done since he was very small, and he used Will for a guinea pig. Bryan has a very nice grill and wonderful welcoming kitchen, and he grilled hamburgers and made guacamole. David fixed steak fries and prepared onions and mushrooms for grilling, and I brought homemade bread and brownies. It was wonderful to sit outside and visit with Bryan on his swing. He has been the most distant of my kids since their father and I divorced. After we ate, we played Balderdash, which David had just gotten, and it was lots of fun. There is nothing like family playing a game together, and that game demands creativity, which made it even more fun. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Hannah and Rachel had been there.
