Honkey-tonk in Texas with Lindsey and Courtney

Finally, after almost 4 years we were going to meet Courtney, Lindsey and little Aiden. We could not wait to see them. We were traveling by flight from Las Vegas to Wichita Falls, Texas to meet them. This was going to be interesting…

Lindsey and Aiden were so kind to pick us up at the airport. It was very good to see them and this was the first time we met Aiden. He seemed like a very shy little boy, but after a couple of hours he relaxed and was himself…hehe.

It took about 2 hours to get to Wichita Falls, and we drove straight to Courtney’s work place and surprise her. It was so good seeing them all. It was just as the good old Disney days. Courtney has two jobs so she is working a lot. We stayed there for some time and had dinner before heading “home” to Courtney`s place.

Aiden wanted to drive for a while

Courtney has a little dog called B, and she was so shy. If we just got close to her or called her name she would run to the other side of the room. But after a week at Courtney`s place B got closer to us, and we even got to cuddle with her .

Courtney got some days off when we were in Wichita Falls. So we had some time to look around in the city, but it wasn’t that much to see said the girls.

We had finally a kitchen that we could make some good meals, so we had one BBQ evening and one Taco evening. It was so great, and we made awesome food. We also had to follow the Flickabo tradition so we had a evening with peppermint schnapps and Hersey`s chocolate syrup. It was so fun. We got to share a lot of stories and update each other about what has been going on the last 4 years. It was great! At the end of the evening the peppermint schnapps bottle was getting emptied fast and we went out own town. At the club there was linedance with hiphop music, and as Silje (brunette) says it was “gangster linedance”. It was so cool!!

Uh, getting in trubble

We went to Forth Worth where the biggest honky- tonk place is, Billy Bob`s , and Bret Michaels had a concert. Lindsey and Courtney love him. He is on celebrity apprentice and Lindsey has been seeing that. In Forth Worth we saw many cowboys with the boots, the jeans, the shirts and their hats. It was just like being in an old movie…hehe! We also got to see real bullriding. It was so cool seeing it. Some of the bull`s were crazy. Do not understand why people want to ride them, it`s very dangerous. The bullriding was the best part of that evening.

Lindsey and Courtney had seats during the concert to Bret Michaels. Silje and I just played pool and listened to the concert. The music wasn’t really our thing, but we got to see him on the big screen though.  

Bullriding, cowboys and cowgirls

The love of her life

The bull wouldn't go out of the ring

Lindsey`s father had invited us for dinner, and it was really nice to meet him. He had been travelling a lot himself so it was fun exchanging stories. Lindsey also told us that she was planning to see Aiden’s family in England next year and if she was going to England she might as well come to Norway. 

We are excited about Lindsey and Aiden coming to Norway next year, and are hoping that Courtney will come with them. You are so welcome to Norway. Hope to see all of you next year!! Miss you guys a lot!!!
