The past few weeks have been busy here in Houston and we've told Jack a lot when he is going somewhere new that it is an adventure. He likes that.
Mike took Jack to his first major league baseball game at Minute Maid Stadium to watch the Astros. All he talked about for the next few days was soda and popcorn and the guy who hit the ball.
Daddy Date.
Our next adventure was Austin Texas where we tagged along with dad for a work trip. We loved the vibe in Austin and the food scene reminded us of Portland. He ate at the carts that were strangely situated behind old "Hawthorn" like houses along the downtown scene. Jack's first cart experience was a success.
We showed up on Congress St. after a long walk to experience a huge classic car parade. It could not have been better timing. Home Slice pizza was delicious and cheap and the mexican joint across the street had great margaritas.
Our view from Mike's bro's new pad was great for us, a little scary for the kids. We were reminded why traveling with kids can be so challenging (small spaces + breakables + no toys = no fun for kids or parents. Thankfully, we took lots of walks instead of vegging.
Rural Texas is charming and the drive between Austin and Houston is one to be enjoyed. Nothing but small 1 horse towns, tons of wild flowers and wide open space.

We had to point out the eggs to Amelie at first but once she caught on she was on a roll.
