It's our Anniversary!!

Two years ago today we said "I do" in front of our closest friends and family. It had rained that morning in Las Vegas which is good luck on your wedding day. We got up (after spending the night together after all) and headed over to the house we had rented. The girls were tended to by our hair and make up artist while the boys headed back to the other rental house to light cigars and assist with a tux or two. Piled in the limo was the Bride, the Mothers and the wonderful bridesmaids. There was Farrah, the maid of honor: Best friends to the bride for 15 years. Also included was Ilona: the Groom's little sister and bestie to the Bride. Last but not least was Tara: Cajun Connection to the Bride.
Through Las Vegas we rode until we arrived in Henderson, Nevada where the coordinator took over and did an absolutely fabulous job making sure everything ran smoothly. We walked, we wed and we danced the night away. After the MOH and Best Man made their tearful toast, an open mic invitation turned this intimate wedding of 30 into "Cry Fest 2008". We danced, we sang, we ate, drank and were merry. (All the way until 5am when we cleared out of the VIP at VooDoo and had the 20 person Party Bus bring us to our knees!)
Looking back at that day (which is done far more than one would think) I wouldn't change a single last thing. It was the most magical experience of my life and I fell even more in love with that man I call my husband.
Happy Anniversary baby. I love you more than Blue Bell.

New Mejico

We recently drove from Austin, Texas to Pendaries Village, New Mexico for my best friend's wedding. We enjoyed the road trip there and were so glad to stay with our fresh, new baby cousin! Heath & Veronica were dolls and Mr. Devon is a heart breaker. The 12 hour drive back wasn't as fun. It involved a tornado. Yes, a tornado.

Like a doofus, I didn't get pictures of the adorable baby or the tornado, but I did get good pictures of us golfing. Does that account for anything? 18 holes in the mountains, a plethora of fruit, sandwiches, chips and energy drinks, and a heck of a good time - All in photos.

ROAD TRIP!!!

Oh the miles that are ahead....... We are taking a road trip starting tomorrow 4am. Clovis, NM to see our cousins Heath & Veronica Fortenberry and new baby Devon. Saturday a drive to Las Vegas, NM for the wedding of my friend of 21 years, Marlayna Aden to her sweetheart Justin. Sunday, some golf on a awesome little course and Monday 4 am back on the road. Hoping to hit the ATX by 6pm Monday evening.

On your mark, get set, GO!
