Can you guess who the Crockett is named for? You know it-Davy Crockett and you can’t miss the hotel because they literally have a ginormous neon sign because you know everything is bigger in Texas. It certainly makes finding your way home easy. Crockett is independently owned-in the great spirit of Texas. Crockett was originally a meeting place and lodge for the three link fraternity in 1909.

I finally found a Christmas tree farm! I was so excited. Last year Row was a bit small to enjoy the festivities so we indeed went to the hardware store. The amazingness of our faces was captured in a photo memory of which I have made into a coffee cup for hubs. This year it was Dewberry Farms. It’s only about 15 minutes west of Katy. It was like another world.
I have to start off by saying when we set out on this fun playdate I completely went to the wrong museum. I ended up driving to the children’s museum, getting out, going in and waiting by all the toys for our friends to show up. I was winning. I was on time, no tantrums and then crickets. Turns out I was at the wrong museum. She had three and I have one so I had to be the one to try and pry those toys away and leave. I didn’t blame her for the tantrum. It was my fault. Honestly I was amazed we even got out of there. Why did I go to the wrong museum because this little gem in Sugar Land is easily looked over!
Along with all the hustle and bustle we managed a trip to our Houston Zoo for their amazing Zoo Lights. Zoo Lights is an event put on at night by the Houston Zoo. The zoo closes at 5, the animals go to sleep and are for the most part put up in their safe areas and the zoo is lit up!
