James and I had a beach vacation to Galveston before school started this year. We only went for a few days but it was a good break before school started for the both of us.
On the very first day of school, I was driving and right before I turned in to park I noticed this poor bunny right in the middle of the road, still alive! Cars were driving right over it and I just couldn't bare to let this bunny die that way. So I grabbed a blanket out of my trunk, went into the road (stopping traffic by the way) and picked up the rabbit. Needless to say it was a hectic morning, but I would not have been able to have a clear conscious that day if I didn't save it. After a few hours the bunny's shock went away and we realized there was nothing wrong with him, he was fine. So we set him free into a big open area : )
With James starting his master's program at A&M university, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to go to at least one football game. We were in the student section which I must say was quite the experience. It was really fun though!
My family flew down here to Houston for Thanksgiving. We went to a lot of fun but one was the renaissance festival. They loved it! On our way out we went to check the picture they took of us and noticed we were the example picture they printed out and had displayed on the counter. So we got free pictures for being such a good lookin family!
We did thanksgiving dinner easy this year... went to a buffet! It was actually very good but we missed having my other brother Derek there who is on his mission is Paraguay. So we made sure he knew we were thinking about him.
We had our first out of town cheer competition in Dallas - NCA nationals. Since we were there the whole weekend we got to do an outing to a western restaurant. It was really fun. The girls got 4th place out of 7 teams which was awesome because most of our girls had never been to a competition before. This is me and the other two cheer coaches.
I threw my first baby shower for my friend Erin (on the left) a couple of weeks ago. It went very well which was exciting! And I couldn't have done ti without the help of my mother in law Janice either! Our other friend Jamie came also who is due about 2 1/2 weeks after I am. We are all having girls!!!!! So we just so we just couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a picture of all of our bellies. It turned out pretty cute I think.
