Houston Trip

Well, we had to take a last minute trip to Houston Monday Night because Carlos' Uncle Angel died at the age of 93. The funeral was very nice and Nicholas did so well sitting in church (Catholic Mass).

When we got to Houston we looked for a hotel... and all were full and over priced because there was an Oil Convention this week... we did not know what we were going to do... Carlos was a little rattled and his brother was in the back-seat tying to call different hotels... they all said we need to go back to Katy...

Anyway, on our journey back to Katy Carlos took the wrong turn and guess what??? There was a brand new hotel called, Palace Inn. We decided to try it and they had plenty of rooms and all for $ 65. The room was sooo nice. We had a flat screen TV, DVD Player, the bathroom was nice and the ceiling was painted like clouds... it fact the whole decor was nice. Carlos brother room had a Merrill of a beach sceen... they must have spent so much to build this place.

I got to go to my favorite Scrapbook store Archiver's on the way home... what a treat it was!!

We also stopped at Buck'ees... love this place... its a gas station with food, gifts and the best bathrooms in the world.

We also found a caboose across the highway and Nicholas loved it.... enjoy the pictures....
