joy in the journey... on the second day of shristmas..

my true love gave to me...
a night with friends and Christmas lights!

We went and met our good friends in Houston. Nick, April, Mark, and Emily met us at this lovely Thai restaurant on Westheimer. Our server, named Sex, took good care of us. April and I can't wait to go back for mangos and sweet rice--one of our favorite desserts. Because we were heading over to Lights in the Heights we had to get going (which meant skipping dessert)!

The streets in the neighborhoods were crowded. But with bands playing and private parties being hosted it felt like a movie. Tons of Radio Flyer wagons were being pulled with kids in tow. Laughing and dancing made the night wonderful. It's so good to be in Houston!

Having some time back in our old stomping grounds makes us see that we lived in such a great and trendy part of town. And thanks to Richard (our Boone-sitter) we even got to stay in our old apartment...even though it now has a Bow-flex machine in the kitchen and a single recliner in the living room for gaming, no doubt. It made us laugh and look back and be thankful that we aren't singles anymore.
