From Fort Worth to Dallas!

This past weekend we got the full experience of living in the heart of Texas! We spent all day Saturday at the Rodeo, Major had a blast! Lots of animals, bull riding and what child would complain when Papa buys you cotton candy before lunch time!!!

Then on Sunday we went to the Mavs game, a gift for the entire family for Christmas. It was eventful and fun, Katie to took the cutest little video of Major and my cousin dancing and shaking signs for the players. I love it when we get to spend time with our family, we are a unique group of charactors.

So Far this New Year!

Well, where to start? There has been alot this new year. My sister moved back before Christmas and it has been wonderful having her back and getting to spend time with her and Ryan. They have bought a house and started a new job so far this year! There house is so cute can't wait for the house warming party, they will move in the beginning of February! It is so funny how as sisters you go through phases from friends to enemies to just sisters to two married women to best friends. I am so excited for what is in store for us!
Last weekend I got to spend time with an old friend/mentor through college. It was great getting to catch up and see how much her kiddoes have changed. It was just like we picked up right where we had left off!!
My personal new journey this year is that I am going to get to go part time! I will be able to work from home, at the office, and the best part, spend more time with my little guy! I am really excited that this is finally a reality for me! With this I am making time for a bible study at the new church we have been going to. I hope to get more involved and meet some great people through this!
We already have so many great things planned this year, I just can't wait to watch everything unfold.

Is it really over???

I love this time of the year, people seem to change a little over the holiday season. It has come and gone so fast. We had such a great Christmas, lots of family time, reminiscing of old times and time to slow down and relax. Major did well this Christmas, he was so funny to watch open presents, Mr. theatrical. For about three days after Christmas he would wake up in the morning and tell me that he needed to go to Nana's because "ho ho" (his term for Santa and anything associated with Christmas)had brought him "one more present". We tried to explain that Santa would be back next year, but he finally just settled for waiting until his birthday!

We spent New Years Eve with my family and had a fun filled evening of games, food, fun and lots of laughter. (I need to round up any pictures, they always capture the moment). Now it is back to work......And ironing out when we are going to start finalizing plans for our house. Lots to do in this New Year!!!

These are some pictures of some of my favorite little kids. We always have fun times together.

The Countdown has Begun!!

SO! I am to excited that as of December 18th-ish, my sister will again be a Texas citizen, and Ryan of course, too. They are about to start a new road in life and while they may be anxious about it, everything is going to end up just fine, and selfishly, I am just tickled that she will be closer than just a phone call away!!!

Family, Fun, & Caos

The holidays are always fun, interesting, exciting, memorable and yet sometimes bring out the bah humbug in all of us. Thanksgiving has already come and gone and luckily it brought the cold weather, so that we could bring out all the wonderful holiday sweaters, JK! But it is true!

We had a great thanksgiving surrounded by our wonderful family. We ate, drank, played games, and hung out in the soon to be infamous BARN!

While the holidays are upon us we tend to reflect on life, family and the use of our time. Sometimes we are pleased with what we have done and at the same time it makes us realize what is truly important in life, and these are the things that are irreplaceable and you can't run to the store and get another when it is broke or lost. I am talking about family & friends, the people in our lives that have made us who we are. I hope to finish up this year with great memories and stories to tell in the years to come! (i.e. "I don't care who you are that's funny.")

Wishing all a Wonderful Holiday Season.

Prayer Request

Wow! Sometimes in life God just thinks we all need a wake up call to get us back on track as to what is truly important in life. We forget sometimes that we are not promised an easy and perfect life, and that there will be struggles and bumps along the way. We know that these times are ones that make us who we are and help us grow into unique individuals, but in the moment sometimes we feel lost and betrayed. About a week ago my mother-in-law had some test and the found what could be breast cancer, they are not certain but last Friday she went and had a biopsy. We should find out the results by Wednesday, I just ask that she be in your thoughts and prayers, as I can't even imagine what she must be feeling. God is great and we must not lose faith in what he has promised.

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." Gal. 6:9
