Sugar & Spice & Everything Nice...

Isn't that how it goes?!? I'm not well-versed in nursery rhymes, but guess that I probably should get on that. Jon & I had our sonogram yesterday- what an experience! That little gummy-bear, that has been making me sick & have all sorts of aversions for the last few months, is really a sweet little GIRL!! The sweet little pea was apparently taking her afternoon nap at that particular time, so we had to "poke" her a little to see her move around... She even yawned at one point- it was the cutest thing! I haven't scanned the pictures onto the computer yet, but will soon. I can't WAIT to start buying little pink things & decorating the nursery room- geez, so much to do before the end of July! 

We have no idea what we're going to do or how we're going to decorate, but we have lots of really creative friends... Wink!!  :)  Clearly, this picture isn't a reality for a long time- I was just trying to find something pink & brown! 

Well, until next time- hope you ALL are blessed!!! 

Our sweet "little" Neo turns 2!!

Our sweet "little" Great Dane, Neo, turns TWO today! I can't believe how much this one animal has changed our lives... We brought him home on my birthday when he was just 8 weeks old & have never ever been the same! 

This was our sweet puppy @ 10 weeks old- just 2 weeks after we brought him home!! 

And now...

I know he's HUGE, but he's seriously one of the sweetest souls that ever was created! 

We LOVE you, Neo! Happy birthday!! 

Paul & Brittany's Wedding!!

In January of this year, we had the opportunity of traveling to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to celebrate the wedding of two of our closest friends...Paul & Brittany! We got to stay in a LOVELY resort, that was rented out for only the wedding party. It was such a treat- the staff cooked us all all 3 meals & waited on us night & day. They were so accommodating & made us all feel right at home!! Here are some pictures of our week there. 

This is the WONDERFUL resort we stayed at... We're all just dying to book an "encore" vacation here- it was THAT good!! 

Puerto Vallarta was an incredible city to explore. A group of us spent a day looking around, shopping, eating right on the beach & fending off all the people that tried to sell us anything & everything under the sun! 

The wedding took place overlooking the ocean & was the most beautiful setting ever! 

 Here comes the GORGEOUS bride with her amazing dad, Boss. 

First kiss!! 

Mr. & Mrs. Paul Boyett! Love, love, love these two!! 

These appetizers were the most incredible thing I've ever had in my life... I may or may  not have eaten 37 of these! :) 

In addition to AMAZING food, we got to spend the week with some FABULOUS friends. It really made me reflect on how incredibly blessed we are!!

Meg & Ruben

Rena & Brandon

Bonnie & Brett

Melisa & Dodd

Aren't my girlfriends gorgeous?!? And the kicker is- they are even more beautiful on the inside than they are on the outside! 

Just another sunset in paradise...

This is where we got to lounge for a week- whale watching, eating, laughing & relaxing... It was a TOUGH life! 

Overall, it was a fabulous week...but most of all, we were so happy to be a part of Paul & Brittany tying the knot! Now, we wait for little Boyett's!!  :)

Wedding Day- party time!!

After the ceremony was over, our reception was at the beautiful Masonic Temple of Fort Worth. It was such a fun time...good music, great decor, amazing food & LOTS of dancing!! 

This was my cake- I loved it! Catherine Ruehle with Sublime Bakery in Fort Worth did an incredible job & was fabulous to work with... Not to mention, they were the.best.things.ever in your mouth!!

Celene, my mother-in-law, even got Nick out there dancing... It was so fun to see everyone having such a good time!! 

And how can we ever forget Brittany's speech... Priceless!! 

This girl is a walking miracle- I'm blessed to call her my friend! 

The send-off was gorgeous & more than I ever could have hoped for... My girlfriends put it all together to make it extra special!! 

And they lived happily ever after!

Wedding Day- The "I do" part!!

Well, as order would have it, ceremony pictures are next. I'm so glad Rachael captured all of these moments... Although at the time, things seemed like a blur- boy, did it fly by! Here goes!! 

Waiting.

My daddy walking me in... It meant so much that he could do this!

I feel so blessed... I got to marry the man of my dreams!! 

My lifelines, my rocks, my girlfriends.

My "new" family- I seriously couldn't have asked for a more amazing addition to our family. I love them!! 

My family. 

A little out of order...but one of my favorites! 

This picture is hilarious to me! I can hear the conversation now... My mom & mother-in-law gushing about how "they did it!" Meanwhile, my dad taking a huge sigh of relief- whew, she's finally off my bill!! 

And as Jackie put it- "Jon, you're signing your life away...here's the pen!"

This day was all too magical- I'll NEVER forget it! Thank you to each & everyone of you that had even a small part!!
