Crazy Water Festival

Mineral Wells is known for "Famous Water" and our annual festival to celebrate this fabulous water is the Crazy Water Festival held the 2nd weekend of October.  PaPa and I had to work in the Rotary T-Shirt booth and Addison hung out with Grammy until our shift was over.  The booth next to us was selling kettle korn and because Addison is so cute they gave her some.  Needless to say a six month old did not partake, but her family sure enjoyed the rewards of having such a beautiful, sweet girl.

The festival moved locations this year to the grounds around the Famous Water Co. and added chalk art as new exhibit.  My firm bought a square which turned out really well.  By the time our shift was over and Monty arrived to meet us, Addison was passed out for the afternoon.  Next year I know she will be ready to partake in the petting zoo and every other wonder they have for children.  It was a fun first year for us nonetheless.

Can you tell the Aggies were playing that afternoon?  We were ready to go cheer them on as a family!

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....
