Houston Texas

With Ty's job he gets to travel and visits some students at Texas A&M. He goes out about 4 times a year and sometimes more. McCall, Ty's sister, lives with her family in Cypress about an hour away from the Houston airport. Ty will go early and visit his sister and her family before he goes to work with the students. I was lucky enough to go with him because I don't have a job yet. We left Thursday from the ABQ airport after being delayed three hours due to the high winds, so very fun.  McCall picked us up from the airport around one in the morning, bless her heart. We stayed with McCall's family through Sunday and had a lot of fun!

Our first day in Houston we went to Kemah Boardwalk. This was a fun little place with little rides for kids and different places to eat right next to the ocean.

 Loved these rules especially the second one:)

 Ty's neice Brynlee wanted to ride the train with Ty and I. The train ride wasn't too bad and we got to see a lot of Kemah.

For lunch we ate at the original Joe's Crab Shack. The food was really good and for dessert got this huge Key Lime Pie. With the four of us we couldn't finish it off.

Some pics of us walking around the boardwalk. The weather was pretty warm and there was a warm wind. Pretty much the whole time it was overcast, a true blessing!

The star on Texas is where Kemah is located.

The next day we participated on our very first crawfish boil. McCall's neighbors do this once a year where they get together and have a crawfish boil. So much fun and it was really good too! The nephews taught us how to peel the crawfish and how to eat them. Here is Colton showing off his plate.

 The neighbors sitting around getting ready to start.

 When they boiled the crawfish they also put in corn on the cob, sausage, whole potatoes and onions, and some mushrooms. It really was so good!

On our way to church and to Texas A&M we passed this road a couple times. It is by far my favorite of all favorite road signs.

We also went to Brady's soccer game. He is in the blue and middle. Right after this pic he collided with another player and rolled his ankle:( It was still fun to go to his game and watch him play.

The trip to Houston was lots of fun, humid but fun:) It was also great to stay with Ty's sister and her family. I would definently go again if I have the chance!
