This week-end, Kemberlee Kaye at Americans for Prosperity flew me out to Houston, Texas for the first TXOnline. The first night, we partied at Melissa Clouthier’s house and then on Day 2 and 3, we settled into the conference. What follows are the pictures along with a few relevant tweets. Enjoy!

How “Texas” was Melissa Clouthier’s huge, awesome house? This Texas.
