Luby's Mac-N-Cheese Eating Contest at the Astros Game

This past weekend the "Fam" went to the Astros game with our next door neighbors, "The Pellerin's". They just moved here from Baton Rough, Louisiana (hence the LSU hat) and have never been to an Astros game. Although the weather has "horrible" we decided to drive downtown anyway. After being in our seats for about 10 mins we were approached by some guy who works for the Astros and asked if any of us were interested in entering a Mac-N-Cheese contest sponsored by Luby's. For my Louisiana readers, Luby's is like Picadilly. The winner would receive a $50 gift certificate to Luby's and the two remaining contestants would each receive a $25 gift certificate! The game was on!!!! Chris (our neighbor), Mike and a guy sitting in the front of us were the three contestants. My money was on Chris because 1) he is crazy and 2) Mike is a VERY slow eater! Anyway...neither Mike or Chris won...but it was blast to watch! I have some pics that I took from the seats.....

Easter Egg Hunt

Our subdivision has an Easter Egg Hunt each year. I do think that a Church sponsors it...and works it! Most of our neighbors went and the kids had a blast.
Mike's parents came to visit us for the Easter Holiday and they tagged along!
Jacob, Allyse and Junction Jack

Allyse's Recycled Material Easter Basket

Allyse had to do a project for Daisy's this week. She had to make an Easter Basket out of recycled materials. This was a last minute project for us...so unfortunately I did most of the work...but she picket out the supplies. We meet at Meyer Park for an Easter Egg Hunt and then they picked up trash as their service project. Allyse had a wonderful time :)
