/>1. Home of the Houston Astros! Minute Maid park is a beautiful park, with a retractable roof, a view of the Houston skyline, and a choo choo train that goes at every homerun. We went to our first baseball game of this season...of course the Astros didn't win but part of us were secretly rooting for the Sanfransico Giants anyway. I wore a cowgirl hat to a baseball game...you can only get away with that in Texas. :)
The infamous Jimmy...remember him from a post a year ago in Portland when he and Ben wore mullet wigs to a Portland Beavers game and danced on the baseball field? Oh the memories! If you missed that post you gotta check it out, there is video that will surely make you laugh. We went to the game with Jimmy and his cute girlfriend Julienne!
2. The people in Houston are super friendly! I made so many friends, had lots of girls nights, participated in a Bunco group, served as a YW Miamade leader, and loved the RS activities. These pictures are from the EMMA AWARDS...a night for the RS where we walked the red carpet and each recieved an award and a cookie shaped like an Emmy. It was such a fun and clever activity...I will never forget how absolutley awesome this ward is.
Me, Ashley, Angie, and Talease. Ashley lives permanently in Houston and let us salesmen wives wear her old prom dresses! Love Ash and miss her too much!
3. Ben took me to Joe's Crab Shack for my first time. I got real messy, and ate lots of crab! Those bibs definitely come in handy. Our second time to the restaurant I tried crawfish...ummm not my favorite especially when you crack it open and see poo.
4. Ben went to a Houston Rockets game with some buddies. He definitely had a good time, but made sure I had a good time without him too...when I came home from work he had already left for the game and there were roses and my favorite candy (Rafaello's...try them if you can find them!) there waiting for me.
5. The Houston Temple is gorgeous! Ben and I had a sweet time visiting the Temple...we even ran into Brother and Sister Hamilton there! The Hamilton family used to live in CT and are good friends with my family.
