We have been getting used to our new life in Houston and man that's taken a lot of time! Still trying to get settled into our new home, learn our way around town and establish a routine. I have been relishing my new role as stay at home mom (though have been putting on the serious pounds...gotta lay off the baking) but it's a lot of work and there's no vacation or sick days! We had the opportunity to take a little r and r as we hosted Lonny parents. Lynn and Edy for 10 fun filled days! One of our stops, was the Houston Zoo. Everyone frome friends at church to my new hairdresser have been saying "you MUST visit the zoo!" so we decided to check it out. It's incredible! The landscaping alone is worth the trip...the animals are the cherry on top. They had one of my favorites...an ocelot. I didn't get to see him though, as he was sound asleep somewhere, so new name? Napsalot.
But the best pay-off? Grandma and Grandpa visiting some homesick kids who needed a taste of home. And between you and me? So did their Mom.....
Now we can regroup and continue to explore our new home. The weather is amazing and we're up to the challenge. But we have some great memories to store away as we make new ones!
