Buc-ee's

On our drive up to Dallas from Houston, we made a pit-stop at Buc-ee's to enjoy their 'fabulous restrooms'. To call Buc-ee's a truck stop is does not even begin to describe it. It is sort of a self-contained village of sorts, they seemed to have anything and everything, including beaver nuggets! Don't get excited, they were just puffed corn with caramel flavoring. Their restrooms were actually large and clean so that was good too!

Houston Aquarium

Pictures from our visit to the Houston Aquarium. It was raining cats and dogs outside so we didn't get to enjoy the Ferris Wheel, but we did take a chilly shark adventure train ride. Thanks so much to the Staples for hosting us!

p.s. Yes, they do have white tigers in the Houston Aquarium

Noah is 6!!

Here are some pictures from Noah's birthday party. We went to Pirate Island Pizza, it was a lot of fun. Special thanks to Ms. Holly for making the awesome army cake.

This is Noah's new "room" he built. Adults are not allowed to go in, only kids, or if you are in his army club. He set it up between the two couches with pillows and blankets. He also has created a barricade made up of bouncy balls, golf balls and misc cars. The barrier is a semi-circle extending out about three feet. It has been created with great care and precision.

Here is Noah 'sledding' in the front yard.
