Catching up a bit here...
The weekend before last my friend Leah came to visit. Friday was supposed to be our girls' night - Chris was watching Kiera and we were going to go to dinner. When I went to pick her up at the airport a torrential downpour started. It diverted her flight to San Antonio. I tried to return home to wait, but the roads were starting to flood. So I returned to the airport, parked and waited for her in the airport bar. Three and a half hours later at 11:30pm, she arrived. So much for girls' night :(

Saturday Leah, Kiera and I went to Kemah. They had some Zydeco music playing and Leah got to have crawfish for the first time. We stopped at the fish market and got some shrimp and oysters. Chris grilled the shrimp and some hamburgers for us all for dinner and the weather was nice enough to eat outside and enjoy our roses and gardenia blooming.

Sunday Chris and Killian joined us and we went to the International Festival downtown Houston.
