Outdoor weekend fun

When we found out that Rich was offered the job in Houston, mostly everyone said to us, "Houston is hot!" When we moved here everyone in Houston told us 2 things: 1. This is the hottest summer we have had in years and 2. If you can get through the months of July and August then the rest of the year is beautiful. Yes, the summer was hot, but we spent a lot of time at the pool and there are a ton of things to do inside (especially for kids once Joseph gets a little older) so we made it work. Now we are into the months that are great and we are really enjoying them. The mornings stay cool (60s-70s) so are great for getting outdoor workouts in and then by the afternoons we are in the 80s. Supposedly it stays like this through December and then will get a little colder and then warms up again. With all that being said, we spent the entire weekend outside! Here are a few pictures...
Playing in the front yard waiting for Dad to get home on Friday night
We walked to a park on Saturday where they were having a wildflower festival-it was free and they had so much to do-petting zoo, bounce houses, face painting and an obstacle course where they would give you an air gun and you would run around shooting at targets (only in Texas!!)

Roamed around Market Street on Sunday and checked out one of the many restaurants

Mmmm, black beans!
