Jen + Broxton

One exciting thing that happened at the start of the new year was my friend Jen's wedding! She and Broxton got married outside the courthouse in downtown Houston with their kids, family, and friends (Leslie and I were bridesmaids!). We had a fun "bachelorette party" in our hotel room the night before, and Jen and Broxton hosted a nice lunch reception afterwards. I ordered the cake and helped with the shot list for the wedding pictures, and Leslie made the beautiful bouquet and boutonieres! Jen looked gorgeous and we couldn't be happier for them!

January This and That

 Over the break I had a script supervising job which was lots of fun!

We also had a massive ice storm which cancelled school for 4 days! Daniel was in Florida for most of it so Avery and I mainly watched TV, did a puzzle, and ate while Stella loved running in the snow. Aidan had similar weather too!

After being stuck at home for several days, I was happy to get out and see the musical Six with Tracey, and Avery went to a basketball game at WPA to cheer Ryleigh on!

Daniel and I went to a funeral for Betty Brashier. Betty and her husband Pete were best friends with my grandparents from the time my mom was little, so she was like family! It was nice to celebrate her and to see some of the Jolly family! After the funeral Daniel and I stopped by to see some of our friends who were also in Fort Worth for a cheer competition! 

Kicking off the new year!

 Over the break, Aidan took a fun trip to Colorado with Summer's family!

We were sad to see the college kids go back to school, but we are so proud of Aidan for making the Chancellor's list last fall with a 4.0!

Speaking of college, we are also super proud of Avery for getting into all of the colleges she applied to! Baylor doesn't have an animal science department so that was never on the table for her, but she applied for fun since we're a Baylor family!

Ringing in 2026!

We went to the Pecorinos' in our pajamas for New Year's Eve and had lots of silly fun ringing in the new year! We are so excited to make more memories in 2026!
