It starts...

I have been wanting to start a blog for about seven or eight months now. Of course I had several reasons for putting it off:

• I'm not interesting enough.
• Who would want to read my posts?
• I don't have children.
• I don't know how to make it look pretty (still working on that).
  

Although those reasons may all be true (lol). I have decided to start one anyway. So here it goes.

For Spring Break Bob and I got to get away for a bit. We drove down to Houston to visit his family. We spent some time in Galveston for a couple of days and enjoyed the beach.

On Wednesday we went to a Houston Rockets basketball game. That was really exciting for me because even though I lived in Houston for six years of my childhood, this is something we just never got around to doing.

Every trip we make down to Houston brings the promise of lots of yummy food from various restaurants and my wonderful mother-in-law's kitchen. We had great Mexican food in Galveston, seafood at Pappadeaux's and some fabulous steaks off the grill at home. It's hard going back home after being so well taken care of. Thanks Steve and Susan!

Of course a trip down south to Texas would not be complete without a few shopping excursions. I was able to enjoy an outlet mall just a few miles away from their house.

We made it back home Friday evening and got to relax the rest of the weekend. Saturday night we were able to get together with a group of Bob's friends from pharmacy school . We went to see Slum Dog Millionaire with them.

Tomorrow it's back to both of our school schedules and back to being busy. I'll sign off now with some pictures.
