VACATION!!!

 This was taken 2 days after Dave got into Houston after going 3 weeks without seeing me. March 2, 2012. We took Dan and Chrystal to lunch at Lupe's. Dan met us there because he had to work, and Chrystal took the day off to take us to our Rental Car.

I will honestly say that I will never forget this day. Our waiter was Jesus, and when Dan told him that we needed lots of chips because "I" eat them all, I told him after the waiter left "Dan, I can't believe you lied to Jesus." Dave, Chrystal and I laughed at that and then we got our meal after waiting a while, and enjoyed each other's company. After lunch was over, Dan went back to work and Chrystal took us back to the house to pick up our insurance for the rental car. Harper decided we needed to wait before we got to the rental place, so he could eat. After all was said and done, Chrystal got us to HERTZ and we got our car about an hour later. It cost us an extra $220 because our insurance didn't cover it, but it was ok. They issued us a 4 door, "Espresso Black" Nissan Sentra. I liked it and was quite terrified to drive in Houston traffic for the first time. Armed with Dan and Chrystal's GPS we went out and headed shopping. We figured that it would be best to get the groceries first and surprisingly I had no problems with traffic or getting to MOST of the destinations. After shopping, we headed back to the house and gathered the rest of our things and set off to Galveston for our week together.

Dave and I decided to grab dinner at Chik-Fil-A and when I put it into the GPS, it took me to the heart of Houston. I was so frustrated when I found out it took me to a mall that I just said screw it and headed to Galveston without dinner. When we got checked into the condo and everything put away, we decided to head out to Wal Mart and maybe find a bite to eat. We got the little stuff we needed at Wal Mart then stopped by Sonic for dinner <----BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!! All in all, it was a GREAT start to a well needed and cherished vacation with my husband!
