It was my intention to go to NASA Space Center, but as I mentioned above, the opportunity just passed me by and we ended up just hanging out with the cousins instead, playing basketball in the front yard, or talking a load of BS in the kitchen while drinking gallons and gallons of milk. I believe here they think it'll bring eternal life, because in one weekend in Houston we drank 4 gallons of milk. Thats 4 x 4 gallons for you metric system users out there.
I would definitely say the highlight of my weekend was Celia telling everyone we were going to watch a 69'ers game in Atlanta when we all know that its actually the 76'ers, or just 6'ers, and 69'ers is something different entirely.
According to the new road trip itinerary I had had created in Dallas to try and stop us wasting too much time in one place, especially when we get staying with family, we should have left on Sunday after church, but it was another case of the women in my life forcing my hand, so we only left on Monday. This at least gave me one more day to wallow in Chris and my Pictionary success of Saturday night. I believe they call it a gift.
Coming back to the church I just mentioned. It was really something else, Joel Osteen has his ministry based in Houston. The church there is the old Houston Rockets basketball arena, seating (according to Google) about 16k people, so when you arrive there not expecting it, the jaw dropping moment is quite special.
When Monday arrived, we sadly bid farewell to the crazy cousins and headed out of the 'center of the universe' as they call it. We were off to New Orleans, LA

What a massive Church guys ... jaw dropping yes ... even more so to experience something like that i suppose.
Our Church at max is 1000 people maybe on Easter or Christmas. On average though anything between 650-800 on a Sunday morning service.
Looks you guys had such fun :)
