So many of you have been asking, "where have you been?", "you haven't blogged in so long". Guilty! Apologies! Since my post about Mayer's birthday, I have been buried in my books studying for the end of the semester. As of last Wednesday, first semester...DOWN!! My first semester was pretty intense. Lots of studying, lots of planning, and wouldn't have made it without proper time management. But, all in all, it was much less stressful than I had previously anticipated. It was fun, but I am glad to be a 1/4 of the way done! Lance in the meantime has been the best encourager I have. I'm lucky to have him! Below are some pics of what we have been up to within the last month or so. No more long breaks from blogging. We love it too much. Oh and did I mention, that I am going to be an AUNT?!?!?!!? My sister just announced last week that she is pregnant and is expecting in August!!!! I am so excited!!!
At the Beginning of November, My dad took Lance on a hunt in South Texas. They had a blast, and they both got the deer they wanted. They want to make this an annual thing. We will see...:)
At the Stars game with the Grimes Family. Cade just celebrated his 1st birthday. We love this little man!
Mel, Cade and I. Cade was so good at the game! All he wanted was a cookie and some ice, and he was a happy camper!
I love this picture! Lance loves Cade.
Jennifer and Her husband Mike are a couple we hang out with regularly here in Tyler. We met them a few months ago. They are in our community group at church. We love these guys. We have a lot of fun together!
The girls in our community group got together one night during the week and had a wreath making party. I had been wanting to make one, and we have a lady named Alissa that is a wreath making queen! I am in love with my wreath. Thanks for your help Alissa! We had a blast!
Here are the girls in wreath making action. It really was a fun night. Now that I've gotten one under my belt, It's time to make a fall wreath too!
Isabelle joined us for our girls Christmas party this past Friday night at Mel's. We love all the little additions that have joined our circle of friends. We love them like they are our own.
We needed a picture of all of us together at the party, so we set the timer on the camera and placed it on top of the tv. That was quite the chore. It felt like we took a hundred pics before we finally got all 8 of us in one pic together. Ha!
So we gave up on the timer and got as close as we could and snapped a photo of ourselves. We did lots of laughing that night. These girls are the absolute best!!
My mom, Sister and I also went to see the Radio City Spectacular featuring the Rockettes this past Sunday in Grand Prairie. I have no pics :(. But, if you love musicals and you love Christmas, this is a MUST see. It really is one of the best I have seen! There is a live nativity production as the last scene of the musical and it is breathtaking, reminding us of the real reason for Christmas. Enjoy your Christmas season! We love you all! More to come soon.
