Flu / Ella

Well this past week or so school has finally been slowing down just a bit! Much needed and I think it has to do with the fact that we have over 150 students out with the flu!!! Crazy I know because it's really not getting any better as of right now. Who knows if they have Swine flu or not but either way I think our school needs to be cleaned out and a few days off to let everything settle down and every one get healthy!!!

On a happier note, my good friend from high school Kerry Reed who had her baby girl Ella on my wedding day came down to TX to visit family and friends!!! It was so good finally getting to meet miss Ella, my wedding anniversary/her birthday twin!!! One night the 3 of us girls went out to dinner and to our surprise a very nice couple bought our dinner for us that night!!! What a surprise, in times like this with the economy still not doing as well someone did something so nice for complete strangers! Thank you Mr. and Mrs. whomever you were! Oh and because of such a nice gesture Kerry ended up buying some M&M's off a handicapped man in the parking lot!!! Isn't she just a sweet heart!

What's been going on...

Well What else has gone on in our life since Mid July.....


The end of July was a fun trip to Amarillo to visit Jason's family and where he grew up!! Tons of fun seeing everything and painting on the cars in the middle of the field. Oh and I got carded for buying spray paint because the lady at Walmart didn't think I was 18 an dold enough to buy it! haha

One of my Best friends and College roommate Erin Hein gave birth to a beautiful baby girl Brooklyn Grace Hein!!! So super stinkin cute! Congrats A&E yall make cute babies!!!

Also over labor day weekend Jason and I went to Austin and to float the river. I've only ever done that once and it was a major spur of the moment trip with my friend Brittney so it was nice to actually have this planned out a little bit. Oh and this is a first for Jason and I to do together!!!

So, we went with our friends Chris and Sandra, they are engaged and getting married in April and I'm a bridesmaid!!! We had a great time going out on the town after UT's first home game. We ended up liking this bar that the dance floor is the top of a shark tank!!! Something you have to see and they had great music to dance to as well! Very fun night and the next morning we woke up and got the day started. We had a rally good REALLLLLY long float filled with lots of drinks and a jello loaf! (your not allowed to bring jello shots on the river anymore) We all had a great time and all got a little sun burnt but worth it!!! Can't wait to float the river again! Maybe the next time there will be more water so we can actually float the whole time!!!!

Pictures to come soon!

So yes once again it has been a very long time since I have updated my blog but now that the school year has begun I am hoping that this becomes a more frequent thing.


Yes, I have still been getting on here but only to read everyone else's blogs. So thnk's for all of your updates! Since my last blog nothing to major has happened in our lives except for the fact that we got another dog! YEAH!!! If you know me at all you know that I have always wanted a Yorkie! I just love those dogs so about a month ago Jason, Puma and I went and kinda adopted this little 4 year old dog from a great family! The family we got him from had just adopted 3 or 4 children themselves so they were very busy and wanted ROSCO to have a good home so I talked Jason into going to meet them. They are very nice people with great hearts to do what they have done so we brought Puma to meet his soon to be new brother Rosco. Little did we know the boys or what Jason calls the the girls are doing great. They chase each other around all the time and then crash when it's time for bed...sometimes! So yes here is our new litte man Rosco and Bigger but younger brother Puma!

The Honeymooners!

Here are some of our Pics!!!

All cought up!!!!!!!!!!

So it's the middle of July and that means that I only have a month left of my summer break! I am not to happy about that but I am trying to make to most of my summer and do as many things as possible. One fun thing is that I am still wedding planning! No were not renewing our vows already but 2 of my friends are getting married next year one in April(Fort Worth) and one in July(Mexico)! I am excited I still get to play around with wedding stuff and can't wait for those weddings to arrive! We are going to turn the July wedding into our one year anniversary trip and go a little early to enjoy ourselves!

Today was my other college roomies baby shower! Erin and I go way back...10 year old's playing soccer together eventually we met up again and roomed together all 4 years in college and are still best friends! You don't hear that to often do ya! Anyway, Erin and her hubby Aaron aka "boy" (the nickname I gave him, I had to distinguish their names so not both of them would answer me when I yelled their name in college!) are having a little girl Brooklyn Grace Hein! I love the name! Of course like always I went a little over board and wanted to buy the entire store for her but I stopped at 4 bags full of little goodies for her! Some things were necessities but most were just cute! All in all I think little Brooke will have some very nice things! Congrats A & E, I can't wait to meet her!

Updates continued...

Beginning of July...
So now that we are married it's time to change my name! Well I started with the DMV and when I went some irate man was going a little crazy on the ladies working there that I thought I might not even get to change my name in this life time thank goodness cops work there and got a hold of him and now I'm just waiting on my new license to come in the mail!!!
July 1oth and 11th...
Houston bound for Brittany's wedding July 10th! Erin and I left early in the morning to make it down to Houston in time for so early practice of our so long farewell song and dance at the end of the reception the next day. I must say we had it down pat and were ready to perform! When that was all over we all got ready for the rehearsal and dinner! Everything was wonderful and dinner was amazing! Steak was a little to raw for my liking but the evening went great and off to Brittany's mom's house all us girls went! After a little talking we were all pretty tired and decided to get some good rest for her big day! The next morning we were out running errands and had a get bridesmaid luncheon! It was wonderful and company was Devinne! haha I don't ever talk like that but after going to this place I felt like I should be talking like that! Anyway, we all got our hair done and makeup did and headed to the church for the wedding to begin! Ceremony came and went and it was wonderful Brittany looked like a princess in her beautiful dress! The reception was awesome at The Westlake Club in Houston there was a photo booth, great food, tons of dancing and my dad even pretended to be a photographer and take loads of pictures of us dancing! At the end of the night Brittany and Jonathon ran through tons of rose petals and were off to live happily ever after! After a honeymoon in St. Lucia! Congrats Roomie!

Much needed updates...

June 10th-2oth...
Ok so the days that were leading up to the wedding were great! Much to every one's surprise I was not a bridezilla despite all the things that happened! Some of those things that I thought were really funny but most didn't were my DJ change the day before the wedding, but the best one yet was when we went to get our hair done the morning of the wedding my hair dresser was super hung over and was taking breaks to get sick during our visit! I thought it was super funny but most did not! Oh well my hair looked great and that's all that mattered! Oh and our new DJ was great too!
June 20th...
Our wedding was amazing!!!!!!! I couldn't not have imagined a better more perfect wedding! And I thank my parents for everything! Jason said that he couldn't even believe that it was all for us when we walked into the reception! (Maybe he should have been in on the planning for the previous 14 months) Just a thought! But none the less June 20, 2009 was the best day of my life I married my best friend and my parents threw us one hell of a party!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
June 21st-30th...
The day after the wedding we went to both of our parents house because it was Fathers Day and we wanted to spend time with everyone who can in town to visit us. At my parents house we opened up all of our gifts and were more than blessed by everyone and their generosity!
Off to Hawaii we went! While we were on our honeymoon we were able to do so many things! We went to a luau, had a steak and lobster sunset dinner Cruise, surfing (kinda), and rented a jeep wrangler to drive around the entire island (North Shore was stunning)!!! I even got Jason to climb up diamond head the day we left to come home! What an amazing view from the top! Thank you everyone for making our honeymoon so amazing!!!
