Happy Tuesday y’all! It’s safe to say that I have a pretty random post for your reading pleasure. Let’s just hope I don’t lose you!
- I hope your Monday wasn’t too rough and that if you were interested in the National Championship Game that you didn’t get your heart broken too bad. I love football, but to be quite honest, I was completely apathetic towards yesterday’s game! I even fell asleep during it!
- When I finally {I had to drive out to my parents from our empty house downtown during rush hour in Houston} made it home yesterday, the hubs and I headed up to the gym for a quick run. I squeezed in a 4 miler on the treadmill despite my complete exhaustion. Seeing as though the Aramco Houston Half Marathon is on Sunday I really needed to get some run time in. {Training for this run has been SO sporadic with the move and the holidays…not looking to set any records this weekend.
- My {not so} little brother turned 20 yesterday! Happy happy birthday to my Benny Boy! I can’t believe how much you’ve grown inside and out {he’s 6’3″ and probably still growing!} I remember when you were 3 and broke your leg and had to wear a lime green full leg cast for months! I remember when you were in kindergarten to your first day of middle school and then high school graduation. I remember when you received your appointment to the Air Force Academy and eventually chose to accepts Rice’s offer. I remember arguing like cats and dogs when we were younger. I am so very thankful that our relationship has grown. I love that we can have adult conversations, and I hope you know that I love you to death and you can always confide in me. I am so proud of all of your accomplishments. You are an honorable man with strong values and a good head on your shoulders. I know you will go far in life. Happy happy birthday, I can’t believe you’re 2 decades old! {Sorry for the rambling :)}
- This weekend JP and I traveled to Waco for the O’Beirne-Mejia WEDDING!!! I love weddings especially when I know both of the individuals and I know how perfect they are for each other! It was a beautiful Catholic wedding on a sunny afternoon. To make it even better…there was a break between the ceremony and reception so we could watch the Texans win their first play-off game! The reception was at the Waco Convention Center and little miss Ashley {the bride} had everything down to a T. Seriously, the place looked beautiful and everything matched from the invitations to the programs to the table linens! I think one of the best parts of the evening {besides the love and beauty radiating from the bride and groom} would be that we got to see our friends from college. It was a giant bromance since most of the guys there were best friends in college and did everything together! I love being able to see all of them together not to mention their wives, fiances and girlfriends are my friends as well! Here are some pictures I took!
- Okay, I hope that wasn’t too much information for y’all to take in just one post. My brain is a little bit flighty these days! I Hopefully you at least enjoyed the pictures if my babbling was too much!
