Wedding Weekend

This past weekend our good friends from Hawaii, Wil and Amy, came to Houston for Drew and Alicia's wedding. Drew, Wil and Rich are all West Point grads and although they all graduated in different years, they ended up in Hawaii working together and became great friends.

Wil and Amy flew in on Saturday morning and we had a great time showing them around The Woodlands. We had lunch at The Counter which is a great burger place which was one of our favorites in Hawaii as well. No loco moco on the menu here but the sweet potato fries were just as good! We were too busy catching up so didn't take any pictures there but here is a cute one of Wil and Joseph getting to know each other.
Saturday night we all went to the pre-wedding party at a fun Texan BBQ joint downtown Houston. It was so fun to see a bunch of our Army friends from Hawaii and Joseph was a hit with his cowboy hat. Joseph and I left around 9:00 when things started to get a little crazier-he was passed out by the time we got on the freeway-and I was thankful to get a good night's sleep since I knew the next night was going to be a late one!
Unfortunately he wouldn't keep the hat on long enough for me to get a picture.
Joseph's Jewish Uncle Mike! Recommended dress was country western, hence all the plaid!
We had such a great time catching up with Wil and Amy and are so happy that they came for the weekend! Can't believe that it had been over 3 years since we had seen them last-love that we picked up right where we left off and hoping to see them again soon now that we are all back on the mainland.
