Memorial Day 2011

We had a pretty low key weekend and skipped the lake as we were at the beach the previous weekend.  We got a lot done around the house and relaxed.  We introduced Addison to the sprinkler.  Grammy and PaPa were in San Antonio so we decided to help with their yard establishment by using their sprinkler.  Addison LOVES the water and we learned that her love also carries over to the sprinkled variety.  She absolutely loved playing in the sprinkler, but learned not only the sprinkler but also the hose valve.  She noticed Monty adjusting it and decided to help him.  After that, she would play in the sprinkler for  minute and then run and turn the water off all by herself.  She loves to do things by herself and this was no exception.  Yet another fun activity we will enjoy this summer.



 On Monday evening we had the Hons family over.  Their daughter, Bailey, is 5 months older than Addison and they really hit it off.  She has had friends over before, but this was the first time one has come over since she was walking.  She showed Bailey all of her toys and did a very nice job sharing; we were very proud.  They ended the weekend with a swim and sprinkler finale.  We hope to have them over again this summer and maybe even hit the pools.

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....
