Lake LBJ

We went up to my mom's lake house this weekend to have some fun with her and the dogs. We had a typical LBJ weekend eating out at River City Grille, picking up groceries at the ever popular HEB, boiling some shrimp and spending some time out on the lake.

Cayman Islands 2010

Ahh...the Cayman Islands. Scott likes to refer to it as his "happy place." His family has been going there for years, but this was my second time to go. It was a big family trip with us, Scott's parents and his sister's family. We had a blast playing in the water, building sandcastles and keeping up with Nathan. We had a little bit of rainy weather, but it was still a wonderful trip.

Girls Weekend

This weekend I got together with my high school girlfriends in Austin for some fun. We try and get together a couple of times a year to catch up and make sure we stay in touch. We stayed at the Driskill Hotel, which was really nice and apparently haunted according to some people we talked to. We had a great time talking, laughing and, of course, eating!

20 Weeks

Well, I've made it to the halfway mark in the pregnancy! I'm 20 weeks today and feel great. I have been so blessed to have experienced a wonderful pregnancy so far. My clothes are starting to get a little tight these days, so I know I'll be transitioning into maternity clothes soon! Jack will be here before we know it...

We also took a great boat ride this weekend to Redfish Island in Galveston Bay. It's literally a thin strip of rocky land where boats gather to anchor, swim and hang out. Trips like these always make me so thankful to live by the water. Summer is here!

This picture cracks me up. Scott and I look like we just rolled off the tour bus with our SPF shirts and big hats. You can't be too safe in the sun, but really Scott just wanted to wear the hat he bought off a local for $10 while we were in Hawaii. :)

Boy or Girl?

We had our gender reveal party last night for our families. I saw an episode of "18 Kids And Counting" where the gender was revealed with a cake that was dyed either blue or pink. I thought it was a great idea and so we went with it!

We grilled burgers and hot dogs, and had some swim time before the big unveiling.

The time finally came for the big event...

IT'S A BOY!

Mother's Day 2010

Mother's Day was more like a weekend event. Saturday we celebrated with my mom, Bruce and Kelly. We grilled burgers, went for a boat ride and topped the night off with pizza. Yes, we ate a lot!

Kelly, Mom and Me

We spent Sunday with Scott's family. After church we went to the most delicious brunch and had a wonderful time celebrating the women in our family.

Sisterly Love

My sister Kelly and I realized it had been a while since we took some pictures together. So with Scott, our professional photographer (or so he thought), this is what we came up with.
