Father's Day

Nana and Grandpa came in to visit the Cypress Boyce's this weekend.  They all came down to Friendswood with the idea of spending the day in Galveston.  Some tropical weather put an end to that idea, so we had lunch at Chuy's, went to the Main Event for games, and then swimming at our house.

Happy Father's day to Dan, Ted, Nick and all the other fathers out there!

Since it was Father's Day I let my dad use my iPad for a little while....

Space Shuttle? No, not really.


On Friday Sean and Aunt Joanne went to Space Center Houston and visited its new exhibit, the mock space shuttle.  It was delivered to Houston from Florida last weekend via barge with great fanfare.

For those of you that don't live in Houston, the area was pretty chapped that Los Angeles and NYC, both not notable for their contributions to the space program, received "real" shuttles.

Saturday morning Barbara, Sean, and Aunt Jo ran a race in Texas City.  Saturday evening Barbara, Sean, and I went to Brazos Bend State Park to see (and look through) the observatory telescopes.  We were able to see really cool images of Saturn and its rings.

Sunday evening we spent a casual evening at the Boyce's in Cyprus with Carol, Clinton, and Ike.
