A Morning with Addy

Today we're in Houston. We drove down Thursday and spent yesterday at the Johnson Space Center, the Houston Galleria, and IKEA. Today, Tyler and Erin went to the K-State/Texas A&M game (they'd had tickets before we told them we were coming!) so we are staying home with the two kids. It's been really fun! Here are some highlights of our day together:
Playing with puzzles
Shopping at Target
Sporting her new shoes we bought her (aren't they SOOO cute???)
Ollie "fixing" Addy's chair/table with a drumstick...(probably not what Tyler had in mind)

Yesterday's highlights included:

NASA (where my brother works):
Old Mission Control room
The Saturn V (they completed the Apollo missions in this--apparently they've gone to the moon 6 times!!!)
Joel and the moon.

(Other highlights didn't have pictures...IKEA, Pei Wei's for supper, and navigating Houston traffic--YUCK!!!)

Tonight, we're taking the kids to Fuddruckers, and then tomorrow we'll go to church and on to Galveston to see the beach and damage.

We're sure enjoying our trip! (But it's been hard finding warm-weather clothes that fit me!!!)

Pei Wei for supper! And IKEA! Two of my favorite things. I am very jealous.
