Happy Birthday

-

Today is my mom's birthday. She would have been 53. Most of you know I lost my mom almost 10 years ago. While I celebrate her birthday, I reflect upon the memories we shared while she was alive. She was so fun and fiesty - must be where I got my spunk from? She was strong and brave and she wanted nothing more than to be a grandmother. She sadly did not make it see my child but I believe she is watching over us and is being the best grandmother she can be from up above!


Happy Birthday Mom, I love you!

State Fair of Texas

A few weekends ago, we went to the fair. It was super crowded, but the weather was perfect. The girls had a blast riding rides, eating fair food, and looking at all the animals. Harper was so good. She slept the majority of the time, but when she was awake, she just played in her little bassinet. I think she enjoyed the fresh air. ;)

Texas Tech v. Texas Longhorns

My husband is from New Deal, Texas {a very TINY town around the corner from Lubbock - Ha!}. He went to Tech and is a HUGE Tech football fan. Up until this year, my 4 yr old, Rylee has followed in her daddy's footsteps. She loved the Red Raiders and would always have her "guns up!" Not too long ago, she informed her daddy that she QUIT the Red Raiders and is now a Longhorn! A daddy's heart was broken on that summer night. {yes, she goes around with her horns in the air and yes, her daddy cringes!} Can't wait to see what happens tonight when the Red Raiders play the Longhorns. Will she have her "guns up" or her "horns" up? We shall see.... Until next time...... xoxo
