D.C. Trip

Daniel and I took a trip to Washington, D.C. over Easter weekend to see a friend and co-worker of Daniel's (who works in the D.C. office) get married! The wedding was beautiful and we had a great time touring the sites and hanging out with the PWC gang! Most of the cherry blossoms were gone but we did manage to see a few that were still in bloom. At the rehearsal dinner we got wanded by Secret Service because Michelle Obama was dining there! We never got to see her but it was still cool :) I also got to see a police-escorted motorcade outside our hotel but I'm not sure if Obama was part of it (no limousine, just SUV's).
My parents came to keep Aidan and Avery...they went with Jason and Kelly to see Pa and Gamma one day, then took the kids to Park Cities (the church we went when I was a kid) for Easter! Thanks Grammy and Papi :)

Bluebonnets!

My mom just flew in town to keep the kids while Daniel and I travel out of town for a wedding! After we picked up the kids from school today we drove to a great bluebonnet patch in Sachse and take our annual bluebonnet pictures. This time Griffin got to join in!

KD Diva Run

This past weekend my very understanding husband kept the kids while I took off for yet ANOTHER girls' weekend! This one was in Galveston with my KD sisters from Baylor and it was a blast. Some of these girls I hadn't seen since we graduated! A few of us signed up for the Diva Run (six of us ran the 5K and two girls ran the half marathon) and the others came to cheer us on. The rest of the time was spent catching up, dining out, and goofing off in the hotel karaoke bar ;) I had just as much fun with these girls as I did 15+ years ago. Some things never change!!

This and That

Aidan and Avery were both star students recently! Avery got to bring a show and tell item each day and on the last day she brought our photo books from our San Antonio and Disney trips. During Aidan's week he got to bring different stuff each day like a family photo, favorite book, show and tell item, and a joke.
Daisy Troop 6542 went on a field trip to PetSmart last week! The girls loved seeing all the little animals up close. We only have two more meetings left for the year...whew!
She also had her dance recital pictures taken yesterday. I am SO not good with updos so her hair didn't look that great. Plus I forgot lipstick for her individual picture, her skirt is too big, and now she has a hole in her brand new tights. But her smile made up for everything :)
Daniel and I got to see Conan O'Brien this week!!! He was taping his show in Dallas this week and I managed to get tickets to one night. I love Conan and this experience was SO much fun!
Urkel and Urkelette making me laugh :)
