We stayed with Michael's sister Lauren and her husband Luke for the night and then headed to Temple the next morning. It was great to see all of Michael's family, including a couple of the grandparents. We had a yummy Thanksgiving feast with all the fixins - Mmmm!! The weather was just heavenly - in the low 70s...ahhhhhhhhhh (and for the record, it is 10 degrees outside and windy as I type this, ug)! After the big feast, we played all kinds of board games - so fun! It was nice to know that when we were sad to leave, we knew we would be back in 3 weeks for Christmas. And yes we were able to fit in Chickfila and Casa Ole while we were there!
Saturday morning, we headed back to Houston for the baptism of our new Godson Luke! He is the son of our great friends Stephanie & Ryan who we know from A&M. It was such a special day. Little Luke cried during the baptism but I told Steph I thought it was cute because it just meant he was aware of what was going on and could enjoy all that Holy Spirit coming down on him! :) After the baptism reception, we got to spend the rest of the day with them and their sweet little family. It was so wonderful to just sit and talk like the old days. Then we went for a yummy dinner to mexican food - real mexican food. Oh yum. As always, it was very hard to leave them but it made me realize just how blessed we are to have them as friends. And yes Ryan, we are still counting on you to find Michael a job to get us back to Houston one day! ;)
Before the baptism - Luke is getting ready!
Meet our new Godson and a new member of the Catholic Church - Luke Michael!
