Houston


Me and Michelle

Jonathan teaching Reese to pitch (Jonathan was a pitcher in college)

Entrance to Minute Maid Park--love this picture!

My kids were so embarrassed I did this:) I couldn't resist!

Sweet Daddy before the game


God Rangers!


Silly Abby after a long game...she's a trooper!


This past weekend Greg, the kids and I went to Houston to hangout with some friends and see the Rangers play the Astros--we swept the Astros by the way--Go Rangers!!!:) We had a great weekend (overall:) and really enjoyed our time with Michelle and Jonathan (friends from OBU). We got in kinda late Friday night but ended up staying up until about 2am talking and catching up on what we have missed since the last time we saw each other! We got to sleep in the next morning, thanks to the best kids in the world that also sleep in and appreciate the goodness of a lazy Saturday:) We spent the day hanging out in downtown Houston at this city park that had water fountains for the kids to play in--bonus:) It was super HOT and humid but surprisingly in the shade it only felt about 95 instead of 105--gotta love TEXAS:)
We then headed home for some naps because we had the big Rangers/Astros game that night!
The game sadly ended up being slightly disappointing. First, we decided to buy cheap seats because we normally can move down and sit in some empty seats a few innings into the game BUT surprisingly the game was SUPER packed and we couldn't find an empty seat anywhere! Can you believe we actually had to sit in our nosebleed seats?? Crazy!:)
About the 5th inning we then just started walking around and thats where the wheels started to fall off! I spilt a whole Sprite on Reese and I (due to him bumping me during a little fit his was having...not trying to pass the blame or anything but it's true:) then Greg started to get frustrated because this was supposed to be awesome and nothing seemed to be going right. I felt bad for him because no matter what we tried it seemed to just keep getting worse! Needless to say I am not a fan of Minute Maid Park! I don't like the atmosphere or the dome---who wants indoor baseball besides the air conditioning it was worthless anyways because heat rises (remember we were 12 rows from the TOP:( Geez this is terrible I sound so negative--ha! Sorry but I want to blog real life not just the good stuff:)
Well I would like to say if got better but really it was sad, I felt bad for Greg because this was part of his Father's Day and it was pretty lame....sorry honey hopefully we can make it up and take you to a Rangers honey game real soon--Love you:) Happy Father's Day!:/
