Saturday, and Sunday, July 4th, and 5th, 2009

Good Morning,

Saturday morning we went to the beach for a few hours before leaving Galveston. The waves were huge, and I got a great cardio workout just swimming out 500 yards. Sherrie, Trey, and Jordan stayed up on the Seawall due to their lobster like skin conditions. We went back to the hotel and got cleaned up, ate breakfast, and headed back to College Station. Just North of Houston their is an awesome outlet mall, and of course we had to stop there and look at shoes. They had a New Balance store and everything in there was an additional 25% off. I found a great pair of running shoes for $24.00. I love a good bargain. Once we got back to Bruce and Tracy's house we took an hour nap, while Bruce cooked dinner, then off to the George Bush library to watch the fireworks. We rode the shuttle from Reed arena to the library, and put our blankets out really close to where the shuttles would pick us up. The fireworks were OK..... We almost had to do a beat down on people trying to cut in the bus line, but that is a different story. Sunday morning we all got dressed up and went to A & M Church of Christ. It was very nice and I think it is a great idea to expose the kid's to several different styles of worship. We went to Texas Roadhouse for lunch where Sherrie and I shared some catfish. We were not really hungry, so guess what we had for dinner? Catfish! There is still some in the fridge too.... We went to research park and took a few pictures before a thunderstorm rolled in. We came back to the house and played some cards before heading to bed. Sherrie and I have been sharing a twin bed for the last few days and it has been fun. We are heading back to Oklahoma here in a few minutes, after a stop at Grapevine Mills mall! We will see you all soon!

Love you!

Mat
