Earlier this year Brendan joined a local Trail Life troop and got to go camping a couple of times. Even though the active year was ending, we were invited to join one of the other families for a camp out at the Space Center in Houston. Since this was not an official event, it was open to the whole family. Dinner, activities and one-day admission was included, and we were able to camp under the 747 used to transport the space shuttle.
We had signed up for this camp back in March, but the event was not scheduled to occur until Memorial Day weekend. With Michelle's passing, we were not sure we would be able to go on this trip. However, after talking it over with Brendan and Zaira, we decided that we should go. Not only that, we found out that our eldest daughter, Amanda, would be flying into San Antonio that Sunday, and that we would be able to pick her up at the airport on our return from Houston. We did not tell Zaira, because we wanted it to be a surprise, as Zaira had been praying that Amanda would visit us for months.
