Astros again

Another trip to the Astros, this time courtesy of Halliburton. Again, they are not having their best season, at the moment it is 48 wins to 99 losses.

Fortunately we caught them on a good day and in an exciting game the Astros beat the Phillies by 7-6! Famke was very pleased :)

Weekend away

With my parents here for a visit, Thijs and I were able to take advantage of a weekend away together.

One of our favorite bands, Train, was in Houston for a visit so we got tickets to go and see them. Great concert!

I really love how the lead singer gets involved with the audience: taking pictures with people's iPhones , running around the venue, getting people to sing on the stage, giving away a guitar and tweeting pictures taken from the stage!

The rest of the weekend was spent enjoying food, looking at food at the amazing Hubbel & Hudson market, lounging by the pool and enjoying a few drinks. Nice!

 

 

Thijs' business and pleasure trip

 

As Thijs had a business meeting in Amsterdam (location conveniently chosen by Mr Rademaker himself) he decided to make the most of the long labor day weekend and add a few days at the end of his trip. This allowed him to meet up with his mum, have a night out with Maarten and Harry and play a round of golf (followed by more than a few beers) with Marijn.

Happy weekend!

 

 

Humid

Texas can get a bit humid from time to time....
