Mother's Day 2020

I had an awesome Mother's Day!

I made buffalo chicken dip while drinking champagne. 

We headed to friends house for a crab boil.  It is the first time we've all really hung out since quarantine.  It was so wonderful to see everyone.

I'm so thankful for a fun filled day.  I lvoed every second of my Mother's Day!

The kids ended the day with yummy smores!

We are blessed indeed.

Bourbon Derby

 

This handsome forever date of mine is also my favorite co-party planner.

We had the best time planning and hosting our annual Kentucky Derby party.

 

As you know, my favorite part of life is taking pictures, so we loved the backdrop. 

 

My favorite snack was the chex mix.  It was so unbelievably addictive and delicious. 

 

Gary and I love having guests to our home.  We are thankful for our friends old and new.

 

Even though the race result wasn't what we hoped we still had an amazing night celebrating and entertaining. 

a day at the track

Superbowl Sunday

 

Superbowl Sunday is just another reason to make yummy food and have a party!

 

We went Mexican themed this year.  Gary grilled some meat and Gary and I had Mexican bowls.  The kids did nachos and quesadillas.

 

We had a fun night and as always enjoyed the commercials. The halftime show is always a treat also!

 Layla's 8th grade cheer team competed in the NCA competition this weekend.

 It was a long and busy weekend of cheering and giggles.  I stayed in a room at the Omni hotel with LK and two other cheerleaders.  They went to be late and got up super early.

 Their routine was performed perfectly two days in a row.  They are so fun to watch!

 We got to Dallas Friday afternoon.  They practiced Friday afternoon and performed Saturday morning and Sunday morning.  The rest of the time was waiting and wondering and lots of bonding.

I'm thankful for a fun group of moms to hang out with!

 

Our girls got 12th place in our division.  The competition was tough!  They amaze me and I can't wait to see these girls head into high school cheer.  I know they will continue to grow as a team in the years to come!!

Go Panthers!!

 

It was cold and misting, but we had fun anyway!  We love our Panthers and high school football.

 

 

We lost the game sadly, but we had the best time cheering on our team.

42 years old!

We started my birthday weekend at Ninf'as!  It is my favorite place to eat green dip.

I had the most amazing company.  I truely enjoy spending time with my kids.

We have the best conversations and laugh so much.  They are so sweet and kind and I'm thankful to celebrate each birthday with them and their daddy!

Next on the weekend birthday agenda was a crab boil and pool party!

I am spoiled indeed and appreciate all the birthday wishes on social media and via text!

42 is going to be amazing!!!

Derby De Mayo

 

We had the best time celebrating the Kentucky Derby.  I love Derby day and have for years, so we always try to do it up fun.  We finally have our house and love to have parties, so the Derby will be a yearly occurrence! 

this is how we feel

about Spring BREAK!!  Woohoo!!!!!

weekend fun

My iPhone broke last weekend and nothing could be done for it.

I haven't had bluetooth or Wifi since last Sunday so I called Apple and they told me to head to their store in Austin, so we did.  I made an appointment and they were so nice.  They replaced my phone and were wonderful to work with.

We had the best time exploring and playing!  We went to Apple, Lululemon, Brighton and Kendra Scott.  We explored the outdoor mall and it was awesome for Layla and I.  Gary and Hayden were there for the ride and I'll say they were great sports!

We'd been dying to try 600 degrees pizza place in Georgetown, so on the way back home we ate giant slices of pizza.  It was wonderful!

I loved my salad and cheeseburger pizza.

Hayden's piece was giant, but he finished it and was shocked he did.  His tummy was full for hours.

And of course we HAD to stop at Bucee's!
