California Fun...

A post all about me. :) Aimee Montoya got married over the weekend and I jumped at the chance to take a solo trip to California!! I flew in to Ontario and stayed with Kelly for 2 nights. We took a grownup trip to Disneyland and had so much fun!!! No whining or crying allowed!! We rode all the roller coasters, shopped and ate. Such a fun day!

 
 
 Saturday morning we drove to San Diego for the wedding. The weather was perfect!!! We went to the shopping area right by the water and had lunch. Talk about a perfect view!!



 Hard to believe we've been friends for about 18 yrs!!


Saturday afternoon/evening was the wedding. Aimee was a beautiful bride and seemed so happy. Sherrill was the Matron of Honor. Betty came for the big event too. Great friends and a very fun trip. I had some much needed Mommy time and loved the short get away!!

End of the Soccer Season...

Soccer has come to an end...at least this season! Both Joshua and Sophia loved playing and did really well. They worked hard!!! Joshua was thrilled to get his first trophy. Sophia's will be coming soon!! Hoping that both of them want to continue in the Spring!




Fall Pics...

Once again Brenda does an amazing job of photographing the kids. I think the ones of the boys are especially good this time!!!

How Did This Happen????


Three report cards came home on Friday!!! How did this happen??? Where did time go?? All 3 had good reports which called for a dinner out at ClearSprings. Let's keep up the good work!!!!

Saturday Fun....

Joshua had his last soccer game yesterday. Great little group of kids and Chris has really done such a good job of really teaching them soccer skills. Joshua made 3 goals yesterday!!!
 

 
Sophia had an early (chilly!!!) game. She has one more game next weekend.
 

After soccer, Brittany and I loaded up the kids (minus her 2 boys) and headed to Gonzales, Texas. :) I heard about the Rusted Gingham Barn Sale and it sounded too good to pass up! Beautiful drive and we had to stop a couple times along the way...which means we found fun backdrops like this turquoise door!!!


This is a happy sign!!! Such cute decorations for the barn sale!


It was at a fair grounds on the outskirts of Gonzales and it was so pretty!!!!

Very funky "junk" turned into some fun things!!!! This was an old tiny trailer they had redone inside (and out).


And afterwards we got to stop by the Rodeo next door and watch bull riding and barrel racing!!!
 
It was a high school rodeo!! These kids looked too small to be riding on bulls!!! The kids loved watching it and it was a fun end to the shopping that we dragged them through!!
 
 
 Brittany and I had such a fun afternoon. Found a few treasures, saw some beautiful Texas country and the kids had a blast!!! Ended the afternoon by meeting her mom for an early dinner in Seguin!!


Happy Halloween!!!

Halloween was right in the middle of a super busy week....so I didn't get too many pictures. We did have a great night though. We went to Brenda's for dinner and spent time with our friends...

 
 
And then headed to Shirley's to trick or treat with the cousins. We met up with our favorite lion, Aggie yell leader and Johnny Manzel. :) My cat woman, ninja and Darth Vadar had a very successful night and came home with a huge bucket of candy!!!
 



New Floors....

What a difference a week makes!!! It's hard to believe the floors are just about done. All that's left is trim work. They look amazing!!! We have talked about floors for years and we finally did it!!!!
