Okay so maybe I wouldn't really walk 500 miles, but it's a fun song I used to sing in Young Life...and since we just drove 500 miles to Houston, I thought it was fitting. I really might consider walking that far to see my cute niece though which is what Brett and I did for our long weekend. We drove what felt like forever on Friday afternoon and finally got into Houston at 10:30pm. Not really sure how this happened, but we actually went 30 minutes out of the way. I cannot even count how many times I have driven the same drive to Houston from Lubbock, but we must have just not been paying much attention because we found ourselves on a different route, which ended up being fine. Saturday morning I was eagerly up before 9, waiting to see my niece, Braelyn, who I hadn't seen since June! I was so lucky to get to spend 3 days with her, my sister and Brad, and my parents. We were able to pick up Brett's sister Jessica and her new husband Griffin from the airport (they were coming home from their honeymoon). It was fun to hang out with them, see their new place, and go out to dinner. I'm really glad we were able to see them. We also had the privilege of getting to spend some quality time with Brett's other sister Julia on Monday afternoon. Her apartment is right next to the Galleria in Houston and is really cute! It was fun to connect with her and hang out. Overall, we had a good weekend! I rekindled my love with the card game Spades, and got some GREAT recipes from my mom that I cannot WAIT to try! We just made the 500 mile trip back to Lubbock and I realized I forgot my camera in Houston (at least I hope I did, cuz it's not in my purse). So I will leave you with this picture I stole from my sisters blog. Hopefully more to come when we get our camera back!
