Houston

Saturday, January 7th, 2006

Wes had his test on Friday night. He said it wasn't too bad. We were the only ones there, since it was at 8:45. When we got there, they were waiting on us b/c several people didn't show up for their test. When we always get to appts early, we usually have to wait an hour or longer so we decide not to go early. Oh, well, it was very quiet in there. On Saturday, my mom and I went to Hobby Lobby and Target to get a few things we forgot to get on Thursday. Later on that afternoon, we went to pick my cousin, Shannon, up to take him out to eat. He is down here waiting to go to Afghanistan to work. Crazy, but he will make lots of money. The trip there was an experience. I don't think the traffic here is ever slow. The way we were suppose to go had construction on it, so we had to get off or we might still be sitting there. We just navigated our way north and finally made it to I-10. Luckly, the neighborhoods we were traveling in were very nice until we got to the interstate. I-10 wasn't so bad, but oh my, I-45 was like 5:00 rush hour.
I-45 takes you to Dallas from Houston. There were six lanes and all six lanes were FULL, but we finally made it. We ate at Saltgrass, which is VERY good. On the way back, it was no different. There was a wreck at 610 and I-45, so traffic was VERY backed up. I-45 travels through downtown Houston, and the traffic never let up. We finally made it to an exit close to where we needed to get off and GOT off and made our way back. My sister, Tammy, would have been in the floorboard screaming like a baby. Emma Grace slept through the whole thing.

Well, today is Emma Grace's six month birthday. We are about to go out and find some party hats and a cake to enjoy. Well, we will enjoy the cake, and she will enjoy a tasty bottle and some type of tasty baby food. Hopefully, tomorrow we will know something on the MRI. I will post as soon as we know. Kristie
