Dress Up Daddy!


Morgan insisted that Daddy wear her crown


Oh what a father will do for his daughter.

Big Girl

Morgan is growing up right before our eyes! She's drinking out of her big girl cup and eating at the kitchen table. Goodbye highchair!







Snow Cone Addict


POOR, DEPRIVED Morgan was upset that her snow cone was gone. You can tell by her very red lips that she didn't get nearly enough! :)

Peggy & Ron's Farewell Party

Peggy & Ron are moving to London, England at the end of this month. Several of us planned a farewell party for them with a British AND Texas themed Hat Party. Guests were told to either wear a British hat or a Cowboy hat. The food was themed as well and I was told to bring a couple of British foods. I had no idea what to bring, so I made fruit pizzas in the shape of the British flag and cucumber sandwiches, which I found bland, but many people enjoyed them.

The week before the party, I made mine and Lisa's British hats for the party. I had a lot of fun shopping for the materials and coming up with a design of how I wanted them to look.

Weekend Getaway

Brian and I took a weekend to ourselves in July to spend 2 nights at the Omni in Fort Worth. We had a great and relaxing time. Our first day was spent hanging out by the pool and having a couple of drinks. We had dinner that evening at Bob's Steak & Chop House. The next day we went to the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History and had lunch at Blue Sushi, which was some of the best sushi I've ever had! Our final evening was spent at the Wine Thief, sampling appetizers and taste testing several different wines.
