During Nate's First Communion weekend, she gave a concert to the family. I sat in the other room just smiling. Thank you mom and dad for the piano. I had no idea how much we were going to enjoy it.
Family
Murphy…
Murphy. I have decided every family needs a dog. You are the perfect mix between the Luck Dragon from Neverending Story and Sir Didymus from Labrynith. We just all really, really like you. That is all.
Mom’s Graduation…
Friday was momma's last day of teaching in the public school system. 21 years later. My goodness. Texas is going to be missing one amazing teacher. Thank you, mom, for your service and sacrifice. You worked until 8pm at night, every day. You loved your students as if...

Julia and Nate's birthdays are five days away, so some years we celebrate them together. This year, they chose AZ Air Time... a trampoline place. It was awesome (thank you grandma). I now have a nine year old and a twelve year old. Seriously? How did that happen. Love...
