So I haven't posted in a couple of weeks, so I thought I would update you a few things that we have been up to! First of all, and most important of course, yesterday was my bday! Yeah, I am finally in my upper 20's, oh boy! Overall, it was a great day! Below is a picture of Ginobili and I before we headed out to dinner to celebrate!

These next three pictures of our trip to Congaree National Park last weekend. We headed down there with Ryan & Sara to check it out! It's the only national park in South Carolina, so we had to go visit. We had a great time!

Texas Tour: Houston

Our last stop on the Texas Tour was to head to Houston for Erin and Ben's wedding. They started the weekend with a rehearsal dinner on a catamaran in the Galveston Bay! Above is a picture of Megann, Matt and I standing on the Catamaran at the Lakewood Yacht Club!

I love this picture of Lex and Matt! And it helps that they happened to dress alike :o)

We couldn't get the picture of Lex and I to come out clear, but I still like it!

Here is the happy couple, Erin and Ben Morlang, dancing their first dance! Congrats you two...think of them as they enjoy their honeymoon in Greece!!! WOW!

All the boys...don't they look handsome!

Texas Tour: Pleasanton

On Wednesday, we got a chance to chill at the Poth Ranch. We did a little fishing (yes, I did catch a fish...a pretty big one I might add, and Lex caught 8), drove the mule, shot at some turtles, looked for arrow heads and put feed out for the deer. I know Lex really enjoyed being back on the ranch!
Here's a pic of Sandra and I riding around on the mule!

Here's Lex...I think he just caught another one!

One afternoon, we got a chance to go visit Lex's grandmother up in San Antonio. What a nice and beautiful lady she is!

The rest of the time we were in Pleasanton, we enjoyed eating a lot of real Mexican food. We sure do miss those tortillas! We also got to enjoy some home cooking...steak, shrimp, salad, twice baked potatoes, corn on the cob and much much more! Then after dinner one night we went to see the movie Invincible! I think we would all highly recommend it to anyone looking for a feel good inspiring story! Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and loved seeing Lex's parents!

Texas Tour: Austin

On Tuesday night we got a chance to meet up with Alice, Isabella, Angela and James for dinner at the Iron Cactus. I completely forgot to take any pictures though, so here are a few that Alice sent over for me!

Texas Tour: Dallas II

On Labor Day, we had some friends and family over for a cookout! We had a great turnout and a lot of fun! I wish I had had more time to talk to everyone, but it was at least nice to get to see everyone again!

Texas Tour: Dallas

We made it Dallas last Saturday afternoon and started off the week with a Birthday Celebration for my Dad at Buca di Bepo! They made him stand up, put on a beak and wings and fly like a bird! It was great and he was so embarrassed. But hey, he got a free desert out of it :o)

The next day, I went shopping with my mom and sister to celebrate our birthdays as well. For my mom, Cindy and I got her some hair extensions, look in the pic...can you tell where they start and where they end? I don't think so! They look great!

Later that night, we went over to Janet & Matt's apartment where Janet and prepared us a nice greek dinner! Yummy! And we played with their cute pup, YoYo!
