Our last week in Houston flew by! We got to spend a little more time with Matt before he flew back to get back in the office. Then the kids and I had some time to catch up with a few friends. We love meeting up with the Oswicks because these 4 kids have so much fun together. They played cards for 2 hours at their own table!
And I love, love getting to spend time with Lesley and catch up.
Holly got to enjoy some ripstick walks with Alex and we all soaked in the amazing sunshine.
I was excited to watch my foot improve week to week and actually walk for exercise.
It was a huge day when I finally wore two real shoes! I'd been wearing furry boots my whole trip because they were the only things that fit. By the time we left, it was 73F and getting a little steamy for Uggs. Two months after surgery and I was starting to feel like a normal person again.
Poor Ben kept running a fever day after day and it turns out he had developed walking pneumonia as well. He was about 3 weeks behind Alex but had the same nasty bug. We sure hope we didn't leave it in Texas!
We had to go to Katy for a checkup for Ben (which was timed well because by then the doctor could see improvement and give Ben the all-clear to fly) and were so happy to have lunch with Ryan and Gabriella.
Then, as trips always do, time ran out and we were back for our traditional Tex-Mex goodbye dinner. This is the best sendoff I can imagine from Texas, just hours before departure.
We sure love all these faces and can't wait to see them again in June!
