Spring Break 2013

We were busy, busy, busy this Spring Break
criss crossing Texas! 

We started the week off by trading in the Tahoe 
for a mommy car while passing through Abilene. 

Denali Yukon XL 
We love all the space 
and everything else is exactly the same as our old Tahoe
except the color. 

And it is pet approved!!
 After swapping cars, 
we continued on to Houston for the weekend.  
We stayed with one of my mom's dear friends, 
Lisa and Walker Agnew. 
Monnie and M were in town as well dropping off Mary 
so we were able to see them while we were in town...
worked out perfectly!  
After lunch at the Agnew's Saturday
 Saturday afternoon,
we met up with Dan and Eric at the Rodeo.
It was great to see them 
and catch up while enjoying The Band Perry! 
Nikki, Dan, Eric, me, Blake and Erin
Sunday morning we left Houston 
and headed north to the Woodlands. 
Anadarko tower
We drove around for a bit, 
shopped at the Town Square (cute stores) 
and met my parents other good friends, 
Joanne and Barney Barnwell, 
at the Country Club for lunch. 
Blake, me, Barney and Joanne
We were supposed to meet Blake's roommates for the summer for supper Sunday night
but Mr. Colburn caught a stomach bug 
so we ended up just stopping by and visiting with Mrs. Colburn. 
She is delightful 
and we are SO incredibly grateful for them offering up their home
for Blake to live in while he is in the Woodlands this summer. 

After visiting with her, 
we had supper at Mi Cocina 
and then headed to the Marriott Waterway for some shut eye! 

We hit the road Monday morning
Abilene bound for a few days. 
Blake met Eddie at the farm Tuesday to work on the fence
while I did some work. 
Wednesday we went to the dentist, 
met with the financial advisor about baby Garrett
and then hit the road for Pecos. 

We stayed Wednesday night at the Quality Inn in Pecos
and it was MISERABLE! 
We had both RHETT and george henry with us
and neither slept worth a damn; 
in fact george meowed all night long at the door. 

We woke up Thursday morning, 
handled business and headed home to Lubbock! 

We were all so glad to be home 
and the pups were over the moon to see us too
when we finally made it that evening!!

We spent the remainder of the week hanging out
which was fantastic! 

We rode our bikes, 
my new Schwinn.....love it! 
finished up some things in the nursery, 
adorable mobile from Etsy
 went to the Range to hit some balls, 

got adopted by a dog, 
precious but can not stay here! 
 enjoyed the sunshine, 

helped Jill move into her new place in Lubbock, 
grilled lots of stuff on the grill, 
applied for scholarships, 
relaxed
and we are rounding out the great week 
with Blake having to visit the Emergency Clinic for ridiculous allergies! 

All in all it was a great week 
spent with my favorite guy around. 

Tomorrow it's (sadly) back to the grind...
