On Tuesday I went out of town from Dallas to Kingwood, TX (right outside of Houston) to see Marshall (who was prematurely home from being a kamp counselor on account of an evil case of mono). I had never been to Kingwood before. Kingwood is a forest. There are only trees and nothing else.
Haha ok, that's not true, it just has lots and lots of pretty green trees everywhere, and was very much a culture shock to little miss Dallas over here....we went out to dinner, watched lots of tv, and viewed many a picture of Marshall's childhood (as well as 5th grade football highlight videos from a VHS tape soon to be converted to DVD so Marshall never has to forget his prime). The next day we woke up to watch USA dominate in the world cup, saw Toy Story 3 (round 2), made dinner (I was really nervous about that, but it turned out great!), and ended the night with Kitty City (a favorite puzzle of Mrs. Clapp, featuring 5 kittens peeking out from multi-colored bird houses sitting in a garden of sunflowers) The next day we loaded up and headed to Dallas where poor Marshall had to go to dinner with my ENTIRE family for my mom's birthday. The next day, I took him to the bus at 5:30 in the morning and sent him off back to kamp to finish his term!
Since then I've been helping my sister, Sarah get outfits ready for her engagement pictures tomorrow, gathering decoration ideas my room for next year, and working with lots of cool kids teaching dance privates :) life is good!
Until next time, dear readers...enjoy a picture of the cool kids at my mom's Italian birthday dinner
