Maternity Pics

A few of my favorites:

(36 weeks 5 days)

FiberMax

A photographer from Chicago came down to take pictures of farmers that use FiberMax to use in upcoming advertisements. Here are a couple of Jevon and I. I was working and missed out on the family photos, so they were nice enough to take some of us later that evening. They took quite a few and these 3 are my favorites :)

Golden Aspen Rally

We went to Ruidoso this past weekend to see Gary Allan in concert...

...and attend some biker festivities (lol). This may or may not be me on the back of the trike...

Picture Perfect

If this isn't love, I don't know what is! For your enjoyment- a teaser of our recent maternity photo shoot.

(I'm kidding and WTF???)

No, but really--I've had someone offer to take pictures of me free of charge because she is building her portfolio. I emailed her back and said, "sure, I'll be your guinea pig!" There won't be any bare belly stuff or me rolling around nude in a sheet. No thanks. Hopefully they turn out good--we shall see!

Brunch

It was close to 10:00 when we woke up (which was wonderful considering I was wide awake at 5 am yesterday morning- on a SATURDAY!!!). Anyway, Jevon cooked breakfast out on the patio this morning. Yum!!! He and David cooked on it last weekend--Hibachi style. I would have loved to have gotten a picture of that!

Because He Needs Shoes Like His Daddy

Mini Merrells.

Big Bend

I've been wanting to get this post up for awhile now (oh...since like April...) and finally have some free time. We took the trike on its first run to Big Bend along with 3 other couples. I had never been and it was beautiful (and lots of fun). Here are some pictures from the trip.

Because I'm hardcore (not)

My view for most of the trip :)

The Gage Hotel in Marathon

Lajitas Resort and Spa in Lajitas

The Hotel Paisano in Marfa

Fort Davis

McDonald Observatory

Outdoor Kitchen

We've made progress on our outdoor kitchen! Still lots to do, but here is what it looks like right now:

To Do List:

* Pour concrete (stamped and stained) or put a deck down on the grassy area

* Pebble Flex for around the pool

* Finish out the top of the pergola

* Find an iron worker to make a gate

Just in time for summer! I can't wait!

Catch Up

My MAC had to visit the Geek Squad. Apparently the hard drive crashed and they were unable to recover anything from my computer. Yep--all my pictures are gone...everything. Thankfully I have this blog so I am able to at least save the pictures that I have uploaded on here.

Anyway, things have been busy around here. Jevon's trike is done so we took a ride to Big Bend over Easter. More on that in a later post. We went to a FiberMax banquet last week (made the 1 Ton Club Again!) and got to see the Cactus Cuties perform again. And like the first time we saw them, they were AMAZING.

Also, I have some news I need to share tomorrow, but everything I have written regarding that is saved up at work on a flash drive. Hopefully tomorrow I will get that posted. Until then, I'll leave you with a picture from the banquet:

Honey and the Demon doggies.

My Honey turned 31 today. Happy Birthday My Love!

I like sending Jevon cards in the mail. It lets him know I'm thinking about him and, well, I just like to. I really like the song "Smile" by Uncle Kracker. When I hear it makes me smile and makes me think of my Honey. I'm not sure he has ever actually listened to the words, so I copied them down in the card I sent him. He should get it tomorrow. Want to hear the song? Click here. And here are the lyrics:

You're better then the best

I'm lucky just to linger in your light

Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that's right

Completely unaware

Nothing can compare to where you send me,

Lets me know that it's ok, yeah it's ok

And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun

Fall out of bed, sing like bird

Dizzy in my head, spin like a record

Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool

Forget how to breathe

Shine like gold, buzz like a bee

Just the thought of you can drive me wild

Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone

Somehow you come along

Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that

You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun

Fall out of bed, sing like bird

Dizzy in my head, spin like a record

Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool

Forget how to breathe

Shine like gold, buzz like a bee

Just the thought of you can drive me wild

Ohh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you

Cuz everytime that I get around you

I see the best of me inside your eyes

You make me smile

You make me dance like a fool

Forget how to breathe

Shine like gold, buzz like a bee

Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun

Fall out of bed, sing like bird

Dizzy in my head, spin like a record

Crazy on a Sunday night

You make me dance like a fool

Forget how to breathe

Shine like gold, buzz like a bee

Just the thought of you can drive me wild

Ohh, you make me smile

Aren't the lyrics so sweet?
