Texas our Texas...

Tomorrow I will be in Houston! We leave bright and early at 6:30am from LAX and arrive at IAH around 11:30am. I can't wait to see everyone. At the moment, I'm trying to figure out how I am going to pack all of my stuff and Mason's into one suitcase. In case you don't know, the airlines have changed the rules regarding checking luggage effective May 5th. You are now allowed one free bag to check and the second bag is $25 each trip. It is still free to check car seats and strollers, thank goodness.

I'm a little nervous about flying this time around. Mason will be sitting in my lap during the flight and I'm concerned he won't want to sit the entire 3.5 hours. Luckily, it is an early flight and he normally is asleep that early. Hopefully he will just continue to sleep the rest of the flight.

It's going to be a very busy week for us. There are so many people I want to see, while in Houston. Fortunately, if I don't see everyone this trip, I will see them at the end of June when we come in for David's wedding.

My good friend, Larissa, is getting married next Saturday. I met Larissa through Adam, when we first started dating. Larissa and Adam both attended Baylor and became friends their freshman year of college. Over the past three years, Larissa and I have grown close and now talk more than her and Adam. Her dad is the one that got Adam the job with Nalco.She has been anxiously awaiting this day for so long and I can't wait to be a part of her special day.

David, Adam's brother, is graduating from Baylor the same day as the wedding. I hate that I will miss it, but at least I will get to see him that evening at the wedding reception. I am so proud and happy for David. He has accomplished so much over the last few years and now he is finally done with school.
