Corpus Christie

We were so excited when we found out that our friends The Weiner's were moving to Corpus Christie at the same time as we were moving to Houston.  We haven't lived close to each other in 8 years since Callista was a baby, so it was fantastic to catch up and watch these kids become the great friends they were destined to be.
Callista could not have been happier to make friends with "Rolo" their beloved Golden Doodle.  Even Chloe (who is our non-dog lover) agrees that this was the best dog ever!
 We spent a beautiful sunny afternoon at the beach.

 After church on Sunday we ate a delicious lunch.  Michele spoiled me with her cooking, some things never change, and said our goodbyes.
We didn't want Lee to feel left out of all the pictures.  
It was a perfect weekend getaway!  Can't wait to see you again!

Shupe's Sports

 As part of his collateral duties, Paul covers a High School Football team in nearby Sugarland.  The George Ranch Longhorns are undefeated and will probably make it to state.  They are awesome.  They adore Ryan too.  As you can see, they presented him with his own "George Ranch Athletics Dept" Shirt as well.  He thinks he's cool stuff when he gets to wear it and stand on the sidelines with Paul.
 Paul was officially working at this Astros game, so we decided to tag along and buy some "cheap tickets".  We moved down after the first few innings.  He brought us pretzals and lemonades from the clubhouse and we watched as the Astros beat the Diamondbacks.
 Now onto the Texans.  Paul was given tickets for the first pre-season game of the Texans vs the 49'ers.  We had amazing seats, but the most exciting part was watching our cool Dad move around the sidelines.  See him.....he's in the light blue shirt and khaki pants.
 We now have shirts for the Texans, The Astros, and the Houston Cougars.  We are acquiring quite the wardrobe!



We look forward to many more sporting events!
