My 30th birthday

So we went to Houston for my 30th! We stayed at the Hilton downtown, which was REALLY nice. The kids loved it. We got to go swimming on the 24th floor. You could see the Houston skyline from the pool, and we watched people come in and out of the Toyota Center after the Rockets game.

We also went to NASA. That was super fun. The kids really enjoyed the playground there. I want to go again, sans-Brittan. Taking a baby there is not very convenient. But, it was still a good time.

Don't be jealous, but we went to Gatti-Land for dinner. Although it was MY birthday, I didn't get to go on any rides, but the kids had a great time. (again)



Sunday, we all went to Monument Inn for lunch. That was really nice. We had lunch overlooking the water, and lunch was yummmmmmmy. David saw some old friends, and maybe we can connect with them when we move to Houston...we need Houston friends!



This last picture was Kaelen and Brittan...just about 30 minutes out of Houston, on the way home.

Press


Casey had her first meeting in the MEDIA CLUB today. It's very exciting. She was one of very few that got chosen for the club. You have to have a/b or better grades, and a good application. Her application did include that her experience in media and technology was partially based on the fact that her step-dad was on KENS 5 and he taught her 'things'. HAHA Anyway, she got chosen for the marketing and interviewing portion of the club, so she gets to wear a press pass with her picture on it, and when they go on field trips, etc. if she is taking pictures, she has to wear her pass to show she's 'valid'. I think that's so cool. ((So does she)) She'll be interviewing students and teachers and asking them things about their favorite classes and activities, and helping to sum up the life of a fifth grader and fifth grade teacher. We'll keep you posted!!!

There's not much to tell at this point. We had a house showing today, and one person showed up, but it didn't sound very promising....but I guess you never know for sure!!




We've got a 3 day weekend coming up, so that'll be nice for the kids to get to spend with David.




Next month is my 30th birthday. Looks like we might be celebrating in New Orleans! So far it'll be David and 'Whitey' and me....but anyone is invited! We're probably going on the weekend of the 7th (my birthday).




Well, I'll post some pictures here, and more later. Thanks for stopping by!
