Happy Independence Day. I know it's really the 7th, but we just got back from a weekend visiting Chris in Houston. I'm a little tired. Fortunately, I had today off. Gotta love those Flex Days. So, I have stories. I swear, but we both know you just want a photo montage. But man, do I have stories and photos! (because I finally off loaded all my camera.)

So, until I have more than 20 minutes to give you fun updates, this will have to do. Enjoy the photos. And all the fun and adventures can be checked out here.

I hung out with my boys:

We blew stuff up:

Of course it was always safety first:

It was a lot of fun:

Saturday we went to NASA:

Which ohmigod do I have a story for you about that visit. Stupid...god.

We learned a lot:

And had some fun:

Then Chris took us to Galveston. Because the kid from O! had never seen the Gulf. I know tragic isn't it? So, I made him put his feet in the murky, brown water. This should win me girlfriend of the year.

It was a fun, fun weekend. I'm now tired. Of course, I had today off, so I went shopping, did laundry and took a nap. It was a tough day I tell you. And tomorrow, I have an off site training. So, I won't even be at work then. You're sad. I can tell. I'm sorry. But we'll catch up soon. I promise. Because stories! And fun! And Chris! It's been so long since I've seen Chris. But for now, pictures. Check out the set at my flickr.
