With Boo celebrating her 29th birthday again earlier this week, we finally managed to all meet up at the latest "hole-in-the-wall" fish joint in our beloved Fort Worth. More polished than some other eateries we have been to lately, but still a great little spot for some good 'ole fried catfish and oysters.
The Flying Fish just opened it doors about a month ago, so the little guy had to give his stamp of approval or give them the thumbs-down of death. All in all, not a bad little spot. Food was good, but we definitely need to try some grilled entrees before we make our final judgement - fried food is fried food, it is hard to mess that up.
Jaxson was a fan of the food, especially the post dinner home made peach cobbler (served warmed in an ice cold scooner) and the banana pudding, also home made. This kid would turn into ice cream and fruit if we would let him. Boo did a fantastic job of keeping pace with Jax and his frantic style of eating. Not sure if he thinks we are going to try and steal the food out from underneath him, be he is a "manimal" when it come to eating.
All in all, a great dinner with a great atmosphere. 
After dinner we headed down the street to Trinity Park to try and walk-off what we just ate and not feel AS guilty. It was a beautiful evening. The park was alive and well with all types of activities going on. Walker, bikers, runners, pick-up soccer and basketball games. Within the park, there is a statue honoring Samuel Clemens (aka Mark Twain). It is dedicated to all those who read and teach others how to read. Jaxson seemed to take to him pretty quick, maybe this is a precursor to him being a great American author who will change the views of the world with a single book. Or, maybe it just means he is a curious kid who wondered why the man wasn't moving while he walked all over him. I guess we will just have to wait and find out.....
