Boy Scout NASA Camp-In 6/17/07




We all (minus Toby) traveled to Houston this weekend for Father's Day. Scout started the weekend with his Boy Scout Pack at NASA Space Center. He got to spend the night. They also got to ask questions to the astronauts currently up in space. Brian and I went and had dinner with Shannon, Marcus, Matt, Terra & dad. Brian almost chocked to death on a banana pepper and I had the saltiest chicken fried steak ever.....so bad I had to send it back (and you all know how much I LOVE chicken fried steak. Needless to say, we had a great time catching up and the desert was awesome!!

This morning Brian and I met up with the scouts at NASA to take the tram ride through the space center. Needless to say, after waiting for it to quit raining for a hour, they canceled the tour. It seemed like the boys had a blast! Scout got him a space suit in the space shop and wore it all day (even on the plane home)!!

We went from NASA to Terra's house for the big Father's Day BBQ.....Did I mention the rain??? Well, it rained, and it rained, and it rained. By 1pm our flights were delayed. Matt's parents and his sisters family joined us and we had a great time (except for maybe Matt who was outside grilling in the rain). Terra told Scout all about how I got to go to Space Camp as a kid and now Scout wants to go to. He's not quite old enough yet, but we'll send him when he's old enough if he still wants to go!!

By the time we got to the airport our flight was delayed for 2 hours so we thought........Anyway, long story short, we are home now at 7:45pm and dad is STILL sitting at Hobby Airport waiting to get home......Happy Father's Day Dad!!!

I'm glad that you were able to come down. We enjoyed having you and Scout looked adorable in his flight suit. We'll have to do it more often :)
