Today Reuben and I went to IKEA! Yes, there is one in Houston, right on I 10. We had a blast (well, at least I did). Reuben got to eat Swedish meatballs, and I got to look at EVERYTHING. We are mostly set on furniture (we even gave some away), so we went to look at barstools. Well, no barstools, but I did get some candles (yeah!) and some glass containers for both bathrooms. I was going to take a picture while we were there, but I forgot.
Yesterday (Friday), we went to eat at Spring Creek Barbecue (yes Leland, we have one here, too!) with some people from church. They have brother's keepers groups at the church we go to. Everyone has been very friendly and helpful. We had a good time and enjoyed getting to know them.
After dinner, we went to Petsmart to get the boys some bones, and Old Navy to buy me some new flip flops (that's why we bought bones for the boys, they think my shoes are their chew toys!).
On Thursday night, we both went to a rehearsal for the Houston Symphonic Band. We both decided to join it so we could keep playing our instruments. They meet every Thursday from 7 to 9:30. It was fun, but I can tell I am REALLY out of shape. I haven't played since school got out.
Wednesday was church night of course. We really enjoyed the lesson. I feel very at home at this church. I just miss the old group, still.
Then last Friday, July 18th, was our ninth anniversary. We were glad we didn't have to spend it in Big Spring. We went to the Woodlands to eat at the Cheesecake Factory (there are TWO in Houston, the other is in the Galleria Mall downtown.) After that, we did some shopping for the apartment. Then that night, we ate at Joe's Crab Shack for dinner. It was a great day. Reuben even surpised me with roses! Of course, the camera is being stupid, so I can't show you them yet. I will in a later post.
So as I said before, there is always something to do here in the Houston suburbs!

The place looks great! You got settled in very quickly - I'm impressed. Isn't it fun always having things to do and see and so many places to eat. Just watch the budget - ours suffered greatly the first 2 months we lived here. :)
