Big Texas Wedding

Okay, so I just couldn't let myself go to sleep tonight before I shared some of the pictures from Jenny's wedding this weekend.  We just got back tonight and should certainly being going to bed early after all the excitement, but I'm too happy looking at pictures to tear myself away from the computer.  What an adventure traveling from here to there & being in Abilene for all the wedding fun.  Jenny & Scott's family and friends are fantastic, and Danny must be praised for the wonderful job he did as a practically single dad the entire weekend.  He is the best husband in the entire world -- sorry Jenny.  (:  I loved being able to celebrate my great friend from high school and watching her enjoy her special weekend.  You can "bet your boots" Texans know how to make sure everyone is having a good time!  I feel so honored & am so glad our little family was able to go.  Thank you, Jenny & Scott!  Congratulations & best wishes to the happy couple!

WHOOO!! How about that waffle in the shape of Texas? This looked like so much fun. That picture of you bending to help your girl walk...you look like a supermodel! But I guess you're just used to that. ;)
And of COURSE! You may use anything off my blog, I am flattered. I hope it helps whoever is in need of it. My friend found out she might have MS, and she has a 2 year old daughter. She's scared, I'm scared. Life is scary sometimes!

Ha! Like I dress like that on a regular basis! I had to go to the mall & buy make-up before I could pack for the trip. (: I must admit I'm jealous we don't have Colorado shaped waffles... oh, wait... I think plain ol' squares might be close enough. (:

Thanks for letting me steal off of your blog! I used it today. Any idea when the test results will come back about the MS??? 2 years ago the fertility specialist thought I might have Lupus but luckily we only had to wait a week or so for the results to come back negative. Good luck to you & your friend!!! And thanks again!!!

Homecoming 2025

The tail end of summer has been so much fun.  The weather has been fantastic and we've all had special occasions to look forward to.  First up, a family party for Natalie's softball team that included pizza, whiffle ball, and seeing the girls just have a good time together as a team. Here's my favorite photo from when Michelle helped her friend, A, celebrate her 16th birthday.  Although she has been friends with A & Z since her time at the Waldorf school, Michelle ended up hanging out with a lot of strangers and had a wonderful time.  I love seeing her branch out and make new connections while maintaining her core friend group. Homecoming week included a BBQ, Powder Puff game and drone show, parade past the middle school where I was volunteering at the Rattler Run, plus a very exciting football game that even Hubby attended by being one of the basketball parents to man the concession stand. Danny did a great job tossing candy instead of throwing it and the basket...

45

I feel spoiled. My parents and our whole family around a dinner table was perfection. Hubby provided roses & a grilled steak, roasted potatoes, and fresh salad dinner complete with chocolate cake (decorated by Michelle).  My mom and dad bought me sweet and thoughtful gifts (including a mug Natalie had painted when my mom took her to Crackpots this summer) and even stayed to watch K Pop Demon Hunters in the basement. We thought it would be hilarious to watch them watch something so different from their favorite shows. They did not disappoint. It was a joyful evening that made me feel much better about turning 45 than I felt earlier in the day.  Below you’ll find what I had written before we celebrated.  Photo credit goes to Kate! 10 Years Ago I filled out interview questions for my 35th birthday and 5 years ago I did the same, adding 5 more questions.  I really don't think I should add 5 more every year because this is probably already too much information for an...

Adventures Begin

Michelle had been saving her money for years. She didn’t know exactly what for, but it turns out she used that money to travel with a group from her high school to Asia!  When people asked me at the end of the school year what I was excited for this summer, the first thing I would think of is Michelle’s trip to Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam!  We loved getting texts and photos almost everyday and were able to FaceTime her a couple times.  She had quite the range of experiences from museums and treasures such as Angkor War to cooking classes and time on the water to learning how to fold flowers for offerings at famous Buddhas, and even hanging out with rats that sniff out landmines to be properly disposed of.  We are absolutely thrilled for her! While Michelle was in Asia, Hubby and Kate worked and Kate hung out with friends doing things like paddle boarding (it is great to hear her work stories!), Natalie and I watched the Women’s College World Series when we weren’...
