Happy Halloween

In October of 2009 Monty and I received the fantastic news that we were going to have a girl.  As no surprise, this created yet another reason for us to shop.  My mom (Grammy) bought Addison's Halloween costume 6 months before Addison entered the world.  I could not have been more thrilled to have such a cute mermaid costume for what I knew would be a beautiful baby girl. 

The costume appeared so big compared to all of the other clothes in her closet, but by the time Halloween arrived this year, it turns out the costume fit (if anything it was a bit short).  Time as a parents taught us a valuable lesson.  While costumes may be adorable, in the future, make sure you can legally ride in your car seat.  Addison was an adorable mermaid but an even more understanding traveler as she had to change in and out of her costume at each stop along the way.

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....
