Pool slide stairs during the paint job. Once they are painted white, we will paint them with anti-slip paint.

I'm telling you, our trip to Victoria was very productive. Jevon found a guy on Craig's List that sells live rock and coral. Before we left town, we made sure to stop by his house and get a few things. We came home with 72 pounds of live rock and a few corals for our aquarium.

Texts From Last Night

What does your last text message say? Mine was from my sister Stephanie and it says:

Me: How is ur ear
Steph: Better just can't hear good out of it
Me: :( May just take a little more time
Steph: I think so

Ok, that is nothing compared to some of the Texts From Last Night. They are hilarious. Here is one for example:

(404): FYI..good luck when you get back from work.. mom and dad know about the boy you brought home last night
(1-404): haha good one..how did you even know?
(404): we all know. he obviously didn't leave when you might have told him to.. he came down when we were eating because he could smell mom's cooking. the dude ate with us and offered to say grace. so yeah, good luck.

I guess really bad texts get sent it to this website. Some are really funny. Check them out here.

Can you say AWKWARD?

My Mom sent me a link to one of these photos and I laughed so hard! Take a minute and look through some of these Awkward Family Photos. I don't know about you, but I know what I'm doing for MY Christmas cards this year!

I've been on the lookout for a cute white purse. I found this one at Target last weekend while in Victoria and it was only $25! Score! Now if only I could find a purple one that I like...

On our way to Victoria last weekend, we made a few pit stops. San Antonio to drop off some Coke machines to get restored and then Houston to pick up our staircase and then on to Victoria. The staircase is for our pool slide. I can't wait to see it painted and mounted. It's all coming together!

It was time to get my eyelashes touched up, so Jevon and I went to Lubbock and had Freebird's and then Sheridan's. YUMMM!

I finally got to see the triplets and I fell in love with them instantly! Meet Brady, Luke and Grant. They are such little bundles of cuteness and I am so glad I got to see them!

The whole reason for our trip. Stephanie graduated and is on her way to UTSA! I could not be more proud of her and was so happy I could be there to watch her walk across the stage.

My sister Katie won first place for her sculpture in the Juried Youth Art Show. Her sculpture is titled "An Affair" and is currently on display at the Victoria College. She is so awesome and talented!

Oh goodness. When we were in Victoria to see Stephanie graduate, we came across Pepper. If you are from Victoria, you know who Pepper is. He decided to sing for us in Sonic parking lot for 2 bucks. He said he needed the money for his prescription for his "teeth." David kindly reminded him that he didn't have any teeth, to which Pepper responded, "that's why they call me Snaggapuss." I about died. Later on Jevon said that he may have "pulled a gun out on that dude" if he came as close to his truck as he was to us at Sonic. I about died laughing (again). On a side note, Pepper said Jevon looked like he had money because he had a "pretty goatee." LOL!!!

May is Mental Health Month. Our company chose the saying, "Hats off to our clients!" Our entire office had to wear hats and then we had these shirts made. They were brown with pink writing. This is a picture of the back. Our local clinic honored our Clients by having Subway donate sandwiches. We had a nice turn out and not a whole lot of food left over.

Life is good.

One of the hermits in our aquarium. I have finally learned what the "macro" setting on my camera means. I think this picture turned out neat.
