H-Town

I had some business in the Bay Area just outside of Houston which is always a nice excuse to visit Mimi in Houston. Mari, the kids, Brock and I all headed to H-Town for the weekend! Mimi set up a luncheon on Sunday at the House of Blues and invited everyone that could make it.

Everyone showed up, one by one . . .

Brittanie showed up with her precious and oh so happy baby boy, Donny (Cameron Donald Duncan III).

Finally inside the HOB and eating!
Ata boy, Marek, shove it in!

Aunt Lorraine getting cheeky with Donny!
It was so nice that everyone got together while we were in town. It was so nice to see everyone and finally meet that precious baby boy . . .
That evening, we went to church at St. Theresa's and there's a playground just outside. We let the kids play before the church bells rang then it was inside to pray!
Marek getting a better view of what to do first!
My little Spiderman . . .
Such a great big sister . . .
There Madelyn is again waiting for Marek at the bottom . . .

Crabby Marek not wanting anymore pictures taken of him. . .

Peek-a-boo!
After church, Aunt Lorraine stopped by with some delicious pies from someplace called the Flying Saucer. They were ridiculously good.

She also brought Valentine gifts for the kids - animal crackers, a cute Ty stuffed animal, and chocolate rocks!
So exciting!
On Monday, we visited Aunt Baby and coerced her into going to the science museum with us!

At the science museum - watch out for the giant spider!!
In the butterfly exhibit. Marek was using the butterfly guide as a shield from those vicious butterflies. . .

One butterfly landed right on Aunt Baby's head!
It was a great trip and I enjoyed getting to see everyone!
