Our second honeymoon....

Our bags our packed, Monty is at my mom's and we're ready to head to Belize!!! I'm so excited. Five days of laying in hammocks, exploring Mayan ruins, snorkelling and getting tan!! (Hopefully, it is the rainy season in the rain forest though so I might come back just as pale as I am now.) Some people think you aren't suppose to go on a second honeymoon until you've been married a long time but we think 4 years is long enough.
I'll be sure to post pictures when we return!!!

Woohoo!! I love vacation!!

4 1/2 more days of work

This year has flown by. It is weird to think that there are only 4 1/2 more days of school left before summer. I am excited but also a little sad. I'm not really saying good bye to kids now that I'm working in the office but it will be weird not seeing my work friends on a daily basis. I don't know how I'll eat lunch without Maurie and Heather. The other people in the office actually work a longer contract than I do at this point.....so they'll be up at school without me. I will probably have to stop by to hang out a little.

Of course I have a lot planned for this summer----2 classes toward my master's, cheer camp, youth camp (yes, I'm 27 and still go to camps), our dream vacation, finding the perfect coffee table, touching up the paint in our hallways, tons of other projects around the house, etc.

I actually have a list of stuff to do....it's the "After May 25th list"....I can't wait to get started.

It's May! It's May!

It's May. Despite the rain showers and tornado warnings I love May....because it means summer is coming. Woohoo!!! 15 school days left.
Of course summer won't be totally a blow off this year because I'm actually going back to school this summer to start working on my master's in Educational Leadership. Fun times, right?

Actually, with 15 school days left I'd better stop blogging and get to work.

Pictures as promised

We started off Easter weekend at Caleb and Brittney's wedding. I think you can really tell I've highlighted my hair in this top pic. Anyway, We had so much fun catching up with old friends from Baylor. It had been snowing earlier in the day so wraps were definitely necessary. And hey look, I figured out how to type between pics! I'm a genius.

Coming soon....MORE PICTURES!!!

Today I took three disposable cameras to get the film developed. I decided to go ahead and fork over the extra money to get a CD so I can load some of the pics up to the blog.....YIPPEE. Of course I'm also interested to see what pictures are even on these cameras since I don't even remember when we used two of the cameras.

Honestly, I love Jesus but I drink a little

I laughed so hard at this...

Wedding Pictures!!!

Jason and Hailey got married on March 10th. We had so much fun all weekend. Here are some pics of the Newly-Weems' first kiss as a married couple, cutting the cake and Josh giving a toast. I have tried to figure out how to post the pictures with words in between but I'm a blog idiot so I can't do it. Plus, I'm at work so I probably need to be doing something else anyway.

Baby Hunter is Here!!

My sweet friend Carole had a beautiful baby boy on Friday, March 17th. He is so sweet and perfect that it was hard to give him up once I started holding him. I can't wait to watch this little boy grow up!

This is so pathetic....

This really is a pathetic little blog. Most people blame their lack of entries on being busy.....but I honestly have plenty of time to blog....I just can't think of much to say. I know those of you who know me would be SO surprised to hear that I don't have anything to say. Oh who am I kidding? I know Marcy is the only one who even checks this blog.

We have pictures!!!

I guess that should read "We have picture" singular.

Here is Josh and I outside our 1st room in Cabo San Lucas. When we returned from dinner there was smoke in the room and it smelled like something was burning. We called the front desk....no one came. We called again....still no one. We finally went to the front desk and the lady told us she could give us air freshener!
Obviously in Mexico they are not too concerned with fire!!!!

But we got a new room...which was better because it overlooked the edge of the property. We could see a cute little house with chickens and a rooster. Josh got up early every morning, read on the balcony and listened to the rooster. I slept in.

It was a blast. We've been back in the States for a month and after a week of work, I'm ready to go back to Mexico....fires and all.

Pictures

I have got to figure out what is up with my digital camera so I can put some pictures on this thing. I'm not dumb...I just can't seem to find the cords anywhere.

We keep saying we are going to upgrade the camera but we want to wait until we have a baby....and that seems to keep getting pushed back.

Anyway, if my camera worked here is what I would include pictures of:

1) Monty, our super cute schnauzer, being cute.
2) The destruction of our lawn....we had a pipe replaced which somehow messed up the sprinkler system. Days without water + 100 degree temps = dying grass.
3) The picture I took for our church photo exhibit--"What does Lost look like?" It is the coolest picture I've ever taken.

So I'm sorry that I can't figure out my camera and that you are missing out on all my awesome pics....you'll just have to take my word for it I guess.

What a weekend!

This weekend was crazy busy!!!
Here's a quick breakdown--
Friday--Josh was in Boston for the firm's St Patrick's Day party. The firm headquarters flies the Texas office up for the weekend so they can all party together. Josh had to wear a tux with a green cumberbun and bow tie. Gosh, I wish I had a pic of that!
I went to work and judged a cheer tryout.

Saturday--Josh flew home from Boston; I had breakfast at my sister's with the family and my cousin Ben and his fun girlfriend, Stacy. Then the grocery store.
Then cleaning and prep for first house guests!!! Our sweet friends, Tim and Amber, stayed with us for their last visit to Fort Worth before moving overseas. They mean so much to us that we can't even put it into words. We are so excited about their new life.....but we will miss them so much! Of course it is also one more place in this world where we will have free lodging!! YIPPPEE!!
We hosted our first party in the new house. About 12 Deer Creek people came over and we cooked out. It was great to have the house full of people and I can't wait to have more parties! I am so thankful that the Lord blessed us with enough room to have people over.

Sunday--Church, lunch with friends afterwards, naps, relaxation.

Now let the SPRING BREAK begin!! Woohoo!!

We took the leap....

and jumped on the blog band wagon. We have friends who have funny blogs, serious blogs, baby blogs, etc....we have no idea what this blog will be like....so stay tuned.
