Easter Weekend, And Signs not to Miss

So for Easter weekend we traveled to the big city of Mart. That is about 25 minutes outside of Waco. And the population of maybe 1500, that may be counting the dogs. So really there is nothing in Mart worth seeing, except my parents and grandmother.

Me, My Parents and Nanny Short. (My dad's mom)
Saturday while my mom was at work we drove around to check out a few note worthy place's in the area.

While checking out the area, my dad showed us this peaceful looking little lake that has camping at Fort Parker State Park. Kinda over use of the park word i know. But what was more interesting is the sign walking up to the water.

This is not a sign you want to miss!!!!!! And i am always worried about snakes, this will not be a place we ever, ever camp.
So on we went over and checked out the actual Fort Parker which is just outside Mexia. Now for those of you like me that don't speak Spanish, the x is pronounced like an H. Why they don't use an H, i have no idea. Anyway the Fort is kinda neat. It is kinda spread out, so you can visit the actual Fort, or the camping area, or the cemetery. At the fort site there are other buildings they have moved over there and apparently they did not proof the sign order. See if you catch it, i did not at first. Michael pointed it out.

It was only one number off!!!

The Drive to the fort was lovely with trees. And we finally saw some nice bluebonnets!
It was a nice weekend in Mart. And after attending the Mexia Branch for church. We went home and had a nice Easter dinner of Brisket. And a healthy dessert. So good we can only show you half of the cake!!

Hope all had a great weekend and remembered Christ in what ever is the your family tradition.
