This and That

Wow, the end of April is a week away. Where does time go? April has been a busy month for us. Daniel has been working a lot like usual. Olivia is still LOVING school. Cameron is growing and learning new things everyday. And me, well I am just trying to keep my head above water trying to learn to navigate this new city. Daniel turned the big 3-0 a week ago and he had a great birthday. His mom was able to fly down and spend 5 days with us. It was so nice to see a friendly face and I know she enjoyed her time here. I hope the girls enjoy Easter even though we won't be around family. My birthday is Monday but not really planning anything special. And finally the big news around the Regenhardt house this month, drum roll please......Our house is under contract and we are scheduled to close on May 26!!!!!! There was some question earlier this week as to whether or not the buyers were going to be able to move forward but we found out on Good Friday that they are moving forward. So now we are on the hunt for our 'dream' house down here. We have 3 good contenders and are planning on looking again next week. Hopefully a contract will follow shortly.

We hope everyone has a joyous Easter!!!

Accidental Beauty

Last Sunday we decided to go out for a Sunday drive(are we old or what). We chose to drive up to Lake Conroe just to check it out. On the way up there, we went a little too far so we had to turn around and go back the way we came. On the way back to our orginal destination we found a beautiful Blue Bonnet farm. Apparently, Blue Bonnets are a big deal in Texas. They aren't as pretty as they usually are this time of year due to the absence of rainfall lately. But either way, they make for a great backdrop.

A Trip to the Zoo

Today we took the girls to the zoo. I discovered a month or so ago that the first full weekend of the month Bank of America cardholders can get into various museums and zoos in each state for free. Houston Zoo is one of those free admissions so sign us up for that. Needless to say it was BUSY. I think that is due to a lot of factors not just the free weekend. The zoo was really nice, Daniel says not as nice as STL zoo but I enjoyed it. It was well shaded, which is good since we are about the palest white people I have seen down here. I think Olivia and Cameron had a good time, even though Olivia wouldn't let us stay at one animal more than like 2 minutes.

This little peanut is 2 weeks old. H/She is sooo cute.

Cameron was dreamin of all the animals she got to see.

Children's Museum

Daniel has been working A LOT lately, he usually works late 3 out of 5 weeknights and has been working almost every weekend. So this past Thursday he took a half day off. He picked Olivia up from school, which she was estatic about. Cameron and I met them for lunch except we ended up having to leave because Cameron was being TERRIBLE. So Daniel and Olivia had a nice father/daughter lunch. After naptime(for everyone but me) we headed downtown to the Museum District to try out the Children's Museum. On Thursday nights it is Family Night which equals free admission. The museum was very hands on, remined us of The Magic House. As cute and fun as the museum was I am glad we didn't pay for admission.
