Weston's first day at Sutherland... and you wondered how law firms get away with charging such high billing rates!!

Angels Landing

As most of you know, Weston received a job offer to work with Sutherland, Asbill & Brennan yesterday. We are so excited for this opportunity. We haven't had our official celebration yet but apparently that didn't stop the angels from getting it started for us! Apparently, there was a serious party going on in our front yard as we slept Monday night. We don't need a confession to know who was responsible for this. Aren't we special?? A job and angels all in the same day!

The perfect touch (notice the "s" in Halls).... nice!

On the Bayou

One of our regular family outings is hopping on our bikes and exploring the greenbelt trails in Kingwood. We fill up a ziplock baggie of cheerios and find the nearest bayou. They are stocked with wild turtles and Warren loves to feed them. On a good day there are sometimes hundreds. One time we even saw a huge cottonmouth snake! Warren pointed it out and with wide eyes and the most serious face, he exclaimed..."mamma, I never saw such a He-ooo-ge snake before!" You have to hear him say it to get the full effect. He is so animated. Anyways, I was just glad that we were on the bridge and the snake was swimming upstream. Cree-py.

Fat Cat-Feesh

For Labor Day we decided to head down to a little town near the gulf named Kemah. It has a great boardwalk that is lined with rides, restaraunts, boats, etc. They had a live band playing some classic rock (my personal favorite) which was an added bonus. It is such a fun atmosphere and we enjoyed walking around checking it all out. It was a beautiful day until about 3:00 and it started pouring on us. Warren loved watching all the sailboats floating by.













There was a section off the boarwalk where people go to feed the catfish, apparently on a regular basis. I have never seen fish hang out like this. There were thousands of them! As soon as someone would throw the smallest thing into the water they would all go for it. The water shivered. Warren thought it was cool but I think we were more entertained than he was.
