This past weekend Matt, Lucky and I drove to Houston to meet my mom and the boys (and Brian) to help Mark move into his first "big kid" apartment! Mark and I have a similar thought process when it comes to decision making...if someone we trust has already done the research - go with it! No need to reinvent the wheel. So a friend from school who is working for the same company found an apartment that was within the 5 mile radius Mark was looking, so he called, made the deposit over the phone, rented a Uhaul and we all saw the aparment for the first time together!

| Lucky passed out on the drive to Houston! |
It was perfect! Great location, really nice layout, fabulous amenities (onsite redbox) and is close to the things that are important to him (work and golf!). It was really fun to help him move in, shop for furniture and get him set up! The last one has left the nest and in one week will be a contributing member of society! Really proud of you Marky!
Work Hard...
 |
| My family could win an Olympic medal for packing skills! |
 |
| Mark's apt - notice the first items to move in are the golf clubs! |
 |
| Such a good helper! This is why he is family. |
 |
| Give us a task and we are on it! We had papers signed, everything unpacked and PUT AWAY in less than 2.5 hours! |
 |
| Sunday I introduced the boys to IKEA where Mark was quite successful in making some solid purchases! I love this pic because it is just so appropriate to describe how "efficient" IKEA is. |
 |
| Of couse we had to get Mark a housewarming present! |
Play Hard...
 |
| It wasn't all work - we managed to fit in beingets... |
 |
| Horsing around... |
 |
| A hula party (at Mark's complex)... |
 |
| And after we left Mark managed to "ICE" Nathan. |
Until the next time boys...
