The Houstonian

Jason had a conference in August at a beautiful 5-star hotel in downtown Houston called The Houstonian. We stayed with him there for two nights and then drove straight from there to Florida for Tatum's baptism. It was a great little getaway. We swam for almost four hours the first day. Our good friends who live two houses down from us and also have 4 kids came down and swam with us and then we all went to IKEA that night and ate dinner and shopped while the little kids played.

This slide was the highlight of the trip. I think Nash went down it a hundred times. For the first fifty, I caught him as he came down, then Jude needed help so Melissa took over the catching duties. She got distracted with her daughter and missed one of Nash's times coming down and he popped up in his little lifejacket and swam to the side all by himself. There was no stopping him for the rest of the day.
And then some night swimming with Jase.

There were three in the bed and the little one said. . .

Ah, alone at last.

Ready for a nice 10 hour drive. Yay.
