Long time... no update!!

We have been quite busy lastly so I apologize for the lack of updating the blog...  here is a quick update from the past few months/weeks... (sorry but photo overload!)

The Greaves were in town for a quick visit; it was so fun to see them and hang out.

We celebrated my sister and baby Olivia at her baby shower!!

 


Yeah for great friends!!!

Celebrated Mother's day at the lake!

Happy Mother's day to my beautiful mother!!!


Another wonderful baby shower to celebrate Jaclyn and baby Weston!!!

And... a very happy birthday to Piper!!!  She is 1 years old!


Then another special shower to celebrate Tim and Susan and baby Brewer!  We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends in our lives!!!

Since I got my new camera I have taken some photos of two beautiful prego ladies... My sister and my sweet friend Susan.  I'm loving this new hobby!

Also, we bought a new car... and after owning it for 8 days, took it to have the windows tinted and while they were driving to the shop to do the tinting an uninsured 20 year old crashed into my NEW Tahoe!! I know... it is terrible... and sickening to look at!!!  It has been in the shop since and we pick it up tomorrow!!!  :(

A new 4th of July tradition... our friends Danny & Megan hosted the 1st Annual Pig Roast!  I know it looks bad, but it was sooo tasty!!

15th Annual Red, Hot and Blue Festival and Fireworks Extravaganza!!!  After so much hard work and planning the 4th of July was a HUGE success.

A fun bowling night with my hubby!!!

A much needed weekend get away to Barton Creek with my hubby!!

D.C. Trip

It is nice to be home, but we had a fabulous time in D.C. this last week!  Our trip was filled with many adventures, lots of sight seeing, many laughs, lunch from a "Food Truck", a horse race, and fun memories  that we will remember always!

Wednesday... when we arrived we enjoyed a cocktail at Jessica's apartment and then went to dinner a Pho!  It was fabulous!!!  Thanks Jess for suggesting a special place!

On the way to dinner at Pho in Chinatown!

A slight detour to see the White House!

Thursday... we rented a car for the day and drove to Mt. Vernon, Arlington National Cemetery and then over the bay bridge to visit my grandparents for the evening.  It was a full day, but totally worth it!  It was so special to see my grandparents even though it was short.

George Washington's estate, Mt. Vernon!



We could have stayed here all day!  There is so much to do and see!  This is a must see for your next trip to D.C.

Arlington National Cemetery, it took my breath away.


JFK's and Jackie's tombs.

The Tomb of the Unknown Solider; we saw the changing of the guards ceremony, it was very moving.

After dinner with Mommom & Poppop!

Friday... while I slept in, Jay and Jessica went on a morning walk to breakfast then we all went on a little sight seeing tour!  Jess was the perfect tour guide!  She took us to the Portrait Gallery, then McPherson Square where we enjoyed lunch from a truck, then to the Air & Space Museum and our last stop was the Holocaust Museum.  Then for dinner we met up with great friends for a great dinner!  This was a day filled with lots of walking!!!  But we had a blast!

First time for a "Food Truck" lunch!  And I must say... it was quite interesting!  I wish The Woodlands had some food trucks!!!  That would be super fun!


Touring the Air & Space Museum!






Love these girls!!!


Great friends after dinner!

Saturday... we were up early getting ready for the big race and out the door by 9:30 off to Gold Cup 2012!  We arrived at the horse race and had an amazing time!  This was our first time to a horse race and I must say... it is a must for everyone!!!  We totally plan on going back again next year!

Ready for Gold Cup 2012!!!


The Pilands!!!

The Greaves!!!


There they go....

The guys made a new friend!

Holly and Me!

Jess and Me!!!

I think this horse won... but not 100% sure!

Travis taught Jay how to tie a bow-tie!  Maybe next year!



The Ingrams and The Greaves!!  It was so great to see them!!




I couldn't resist posting this photo... I like him in hats!

Sunday... we were up early this morning to catch the shuttle to our early 8am flight home!!!

Jessica and Spencer, thank you for a wonderful trip and for showing us a fabulous time in D.C!!!  Can't wait to see you guys again soon!
