Snow, Snow, Snow






















We have had a winter to remember! On Chirstmas Eve, this area receieved what we considered to be a great deal of snow, but that was before we knew what was to come in January and February. We received almost 11 inches of snow on February 12th and 13th. It was breaktaking, but Monty was very quickly ready for more favorable temperatures to return. He enjoys Texas weather 95% of the time, but this is not one of those. I wish Addison was here to play in the snow, but I will never forget the timing of this uncharacterisitc winter as it corresponds with pregnancy. I hear I will gauge a lot of memories in this fashion. I can only hope we will have this much excitement to share with her next winter. I have a sneaking suspicion that Monty will like snow a lot more when he has a new audience to share it with!

San Antonio Shower







On the 16th of January the Wiebes graciously hosted a couples shower for us at their home. We enjoyed the opportunity to catch up with all of our San Antonio friends and remembered how very special each of them are. We receieved a ton of wonderful gifts that got our nursery off to a fantastic start. We are so very blessed to have such fantastic friends and loved the opportunity to visit. We can't wait to bring Addison to San Antonio to meet everyone. Thanks to Zach and Kelli for hosting and for everyone who came!

About Me

My photo
Our story began in 1997 during our sophomore and junior years of high school in Mineral Wells, Texas. Being the older siblings of sisters, we would occasionally have to provide transportation for the two girls, who happened to be friends. Monty and I became acquainted on one such drop off, and as they say the rest is history. Following graduation, Monty and I moved to College Station to attend Texas A&M and discover what the world had to offer. As luck would have it, our relationship continued to grow during our time in college, and Monty proposed in December 2003. Following a wonderful engagement, we were married on June 4, 2005. Following our honeymoon, we moved to San Antonio for Monty to work as a custom home builder and for me to begin my career as a CPA with a focus in audit. After three wonderful years in San Antonio, we said goodbye to all of our friends in July 2008 and made the move back to Mineral Wells where it all began for Monty to begin his own homebuilding business. We are very excited to see what the future holds and share those times with you....
