So we spent the weekend in Houston with Bob's sister Carly, her husband Frank, baby SJ, and their parents, Senior and Mary. The boys played golf a couple of days and Carly planned lots of cool excursions to keep us all busy. It was great weekend hanging out with them, we got to see lots of interesting things, and ate lots of good food.
Speaking of good food, if you're in Houston (airport-ish area...IAH, not Hobby), go to Jumbo Geaux's. Omg. Best cajun food outside of Louisiana. It helps that the owners/cooks are from Louisiana, but still. Amazing. Crawfish tacos. Catfish Opelousa. Holy crap. Just go. Pick anything off the menu. You can't go wrong.

| Bob was thrilled at his own ingenuity. He attached his golf bag to his carry on. I married a smart one, yes I did. |
 |
| On the ferris wheel at the Kemah Boardwalk, where we spent quite a lot of time. It's so cool down there. It makes me wish Charlotte had some waterfront. |

| Sweet SJ coming down the slide at the Houston Children's Museum, which was by far the best children's museum I've ever been in. So very cool. |
 |
| We went to Johnson Space Center and the whole family landed the shuttle simulator. Here's Bob's turn. Of course, once everyone had completed their turn on the novice level, Bob did it again on the pro level. And landed the damn thing. Show off. |
