Christmas Cheer!!

Christmas was so great this year. I was so wrapped up in everything I did not take a single picture =(
We were blessed with getting to see my dad and johns parents this holiday
My Dad arrived Christmas Eve day and we were able to finish some last minute shopping before the stores closed early. We met up with Crystal and Ty for Christmas Eve dinner at McDonalds, Tyler was way sad when the playroom was already closed.
The next day Crystal served an awesome brunch with everything you could think of. The mimosas were my favorite. Then the unwrapping marathon began. Tyler was totally into it in the begining but towards the end he was just ready to play with all of his new toys. I still have about 5 things at my house to be opened!! Later that day Johns parents arrived with the best gift EVER, A 42 inch plasma TV. I could barely convince John to get off the couch for dinner.
Everyone was at my house for tacos and enchiladas...yummy!
My new years resolution is to take more pictures....we just got a new lap-top so I am hoping that will help.

Here Comes the Bride

The Shower
A little over a month ago we attended Britni and Chris's "couples" shower. It was decorated in a "country" style and there were even "redneck" games to play. The hostess served some awesome Mexican food with homemade desserts. The bride and groom were extremely blessed with many gifts and a great stash of cash for their honeymoon! John and I had a great time playing horseshoes with a toilet seat and playing basketball with a Nerf ball and a wicker basket. Good times were had by all!




The Wedding





Last weekend John and I attended the beautiful wedding of Britni and Chris. Britni couldn't have been a more perfect bride. She looked amazing and definitely knows how to throw a great party. John and I had the honor of preparing and giving a toast to the newly married couple. I of course totally hate to speak in public let alone a room full of people I hardly know but we rehearsed it a number of times and the delivery was flawless...yeah go us!!

We partied and danced the night away even into the wee hours of the morning. The plan was to stay and see Britni and Chris off to the airport at 3:30am but everyone was fading fast so we let the bride get her beauty rest.

Thanks so much for letting us share your special day! We love you guys!












We hope you guys had an amazing honeymoon!!!!

Fun Times in Houston!!

Britni, my best friends from nursing school got married last weekend so the past month I have been back and forth to Houston attending showers and throwing the bachelorette and bachelor party.
Our night out on the town consisted of eating yummy mexican food and going to a dueling piano bar. If you have never been to one before it is basically a band on a stage playing different song that people request. It gets kinda crazy but tons of fun. We were even able to get Britin and Chris on stage!! Thanks to the hospitality of Megan and Bobby we all crashed at their beautiful new home!

The Future Mr. & Mrs.


On the way there

Thank for being our DD!




Can never get enough of good food and great friends!!





Howl at the Moon





















The after party


"Partyin' like rock stars!!"


Nothing like a little Guitar Hero to finish off the night

Tyler's Birthday Present



Well we had the brilliant idea of getting Ty his first car. Sooo, off to WalMart we went at 1am the night before the big party (such the procrastinators). Well, the first car we purchased was missing 3 wheels. I dont think Tyler could have gotten far with that so back to WalMart we went. Of coarse I had bought the one and only car they had. Three WalMarts later....we had a complete car. Too exhusted to put it together that night john and i woke up early the next moring to start. What we thought would be an easy 20 minute job turned out to be a 2 hour ordeal. Needless to say it was worth it to see Tyler's face.
