Houston Trip

We got a wild hair a few months ago and decided to all go to Houston for the Mississippi State season opener.  It was this past weekend against Oklahoma State (but played in Houston).  My cousin Mark has lived in Houston since just after our wedding but we've never had the chance to get out there to see them.  His kids are teenagers now but love and are so good with Bryce and CeCe. 

So excited to be flying and to get to see Mark, Ashley, Harrison, Ben and Anna!  

They wasted no time playing with the cousins and had a great time playing in the pool! 

Saturday morning we got dressed in our Maroon and White and headed down to the stadium to meet up with friends.  My roommate from college was there with her husband and Anthony's roommate was there with his family.  It was so much fun seeing everyone!  

 We paid for nose bleed seats but when we were walking to our section someone handed us tickets for great seats about 40 rows from the field!  

Halfway through the first half our friend Ryan called and said there were extra seats near him and his family so we walked over there to sit with them.  On the way we ran into......BULLY!!!!   

CeCe had fun playing with Lydia, Ryan's oldest.  

And warmed up to Jessica, Ryan's wife quickly too!  

Before the game we tailgated with friends but forgot to get a group picture.  We took this one after the game before we headed back to Mark and Ashley's.  Notice Bryce's face...he was so upset about the loss!  Nothing anyone said could get him out of his funk.  Once we got in the car he wrote "Oklahoma State is worse than Ole Miss".  This made him feel better and he moved on from the loss!  So glad that is the worst thing he can come up with to say :)  

We left Sunday around noon to catch our flights back to Savannah.  Things were going great until we had a 3 hour delay in Charlotte.  We ended up getting home at 1:00am!  We were zombies yesterday but I decided we just needed to keep moving.  We went to the Sand Gnats game at noon and then hit the pool.  Kids both were in bed early last night and had to be woken up for school today.  I feel back on track after sleeping so much last night so hopefully they do too.  

CeCe had her first real day of Pre-K today and LOVED it!  She got in the car grinning and told me all about her day without me even asking.  So happy!!!
