You Should Work Here

8 Years at the zoo

In 2013, my husband was offered a promotion with his company that would move us and our small children from Florida to Houston. Having never been to H-Town before, the company flew all four of us to town for a weekend to see if we could envision living here. After two long days touring houses and neighborhoods, a friend my sisters offered to meet us at the Houston Zoo to blow off energy before we flew back to Tampa. While walking around the Zoo and having an incredible morning, my husband leaned over to me while we were in WWP and said, “You should work here.” It was then, that I could see our family in Texas. We moved to Katy four months later and in May 2014 I DID work here! Now, my kiddos have their memory bank full of incredible Houston Zoo experiences, but that one morning in April 2013 will forever be the most magical for me.
