May 23-30, 2009 The Nolan Ryan Museum

This is where Brent worked when he lived in Texas.

The Astro's Game (vs. the Rangers)

We went to a party on Sunday night with all of Aunt BB's friends. This little girl, Katie, was born the exact same day as Mary Grace (8/13/07).

Bayou Wildlife Park

This place was so cool we are certain it must be illegal. We got to feed a million animals (buffalo, ostrich, giraffe, zebra, camel, etc.) out of our hand. They came right up to you! It was really hard to get good pictures because they were SO close!

Mary Grace's first pony ride

Our fearless child let go to wave several times!

Aunt BB certainly took us on an adventure in Texas!

Loving some Texas BBQ from Joe's

(it is even better than Tennessee BBQ!)

Galveston Beach

Best lunch ever- The Rainforest Cafe

Our food was good, but the entertainment was unbeatable!

We got seated right in front of the monkeys. The hostess warned us that most children are scared of the animals and offered us a table further away from the action...we didn't think that would be a problem for our crazy girl!

Eating some Mexican with Molly

After being VERY well behaved during a FOUR hour dinner (thank goodness for chips and salsa!), Mary Grace deserved some ice cream

The Houston Children's Museum is rated one of the best in the country. We have been to a good number, but this one blew everything else out of the water. It was fabulous!

Mega version of Lite Bright

The paper airplane launcher

(guess who's won every time?

...not to brag or anything!)

Downtown Houston

Spending the evening with a friend from Florida, Joe, and his girlfriend, Karen.

Sleep was pretty hard to come by in Texas. Aunt BB kept Baby Girl pretty busy!

Our expert traveler- packed up and ready to go home!
