Houston Trip and Birthday

 Another year has come and gone. This year for my birthday we took off for Houston to see friends, family and have one last trip with out a baby in tow. It was an early morning Friday but we got up and were in Houston by 8:30am! Jason's first stop was to get his favorite breakfast tacos (he went again on Saturday), then it was lunch with Eric and naps. I ended up taking 2 naps, but I made it dinner and even out for a little bit. El Tiempo is our favorite place - possibly anywhere, ever. The beef tenderloin fajitias are fabulous!! I was sad to have to miss out on the infamous margaritas but I am pretty sure someone drank a few for me.

Saturday was the day of cousins. First was lunch with the Ellingtons before all three cousins left for camp. I can not believe we didn't get a picture - it was probably because we got distracted by Michael's new jeep! Then we headed to the Astros game with other cousins. We had such a great time with Jared and Sofia! I have no clue what the guys talked about but Sofia and I talked about her wedding plans the whole time.

After the game we went to grab a bite to eat then it was off to see Micky and the Motorcars. I was really looking forward to seeing them play but there was no way I was going to be able to stay up. Jason got to stay out and went to meet up with some other old friends. It was nice to be able to get out a bit more than I can in Midland - the smoking ban is so nice. Plus everywhere we went had O'douls! 

Sunday morning we headed over to the Ward household and got to see the girls fresh on their return from camp. We had a great breakfast - the chocolate croissants from the farmer's market were killer! Wylie showed us his skills as a super hero and how George plays soccer!

 The trip to Houston ended too soon but we got to see just about everyone and we had so much fun. It was such a hectic Camp Longhorn weekend for the Wards and Ellingtons so it was especially great that they could all fit us into the weekend!

When we got back to Midland we had such a nice surprise and a little birthday dinner was planned! Meagan is the best!!!

All in all this birthday was SO great! I know I have the whole month to celebrate but this little boy isn't going to wait and there is still lots to do so we are ready for him. Pictures of the nursery in progress will be coming soon!!!

A super big THANK YOU to everyone for all the birthday wishes and visits.
