As we landed in Houston I think we both had the same thought: what the heck are we doing here? We lived in Houston, we hated Houston and we promptly left Houston never to return again...or so we thought. We met Megan and Jonathan when they lived in San Diego and instantly hit it off so when they told us that they were from TX and loved everything TX we figured we could make an exception for them, kind of like the small space we save for those dear friends who also happen to be Red Sox fans. Like most people our age Megan and Jonathan have grown up, gotten jobs, bought a house and made the ultimate sacrifice: had a baby. We figured this would be a good time to stop in and see them.
You know those rare friends you have where you don't see them for long periods of time but when your together its like you never left, that's how it was. 3 days of wine, excellent meals cooked by supermom and laughs by everyone including their adorable little boy. Michael got to play the manny with
Graham who at 7 months was a lot of fun to play with. Jonathan was gracious enough to answer the 500 million questions we have about corporate America and how they made it work when they both went back to school. Megan fed us all sorts of gourmet meals most of which I can't pronounce but it was delicious. Her meals generally change our lives and she gets a kick out of our frozen soy burger life style. We are so glad we made it a stop on our world tour.

- playing family at whole foods while Megan shopped. It worked people thought he was ours, I'm sure Michaels ability to rock the diaper bag helped. But after this outing I could barely move my arms.
- table set for royalty, Megan pulled out all the stops for our arrival
Somehow we came back with a million pictures of Graham and none of Megan and Jonathan, how did that happen?
We seriously had such a great time. And are still talking about that game of Loaded Questions! We love yall!
