A picture that I love

Aggie Gals Plus 5!!

Circa 2002, we were three college girls at Texas A&M going to school and trying to get through finals, dating, break-ups, Dr. Viruru (an awesome professor we each had a couple of times), Saturday game days, and the list goes on and on.  Graduation hit and we went our separate ways but always managed to stay in touch.


 One left to live out of state, one got married, and the other ...continued her college life, HAHA!!!  I can say that...it was ME   ; ) 
We met back up in 2007 and began a tradition of seeing each other at Christmas and during the summer.

Christmas 2011

Three Gals

 Sidenote:  Why am I always in the middle??!!!  Must be because these two always have to bring me back down to Earth, HA!!

Plus 5!!!

Wow, things change  : )

Kendalyn and I took a trip to Aggieland.  It was a chance to get me down to my roots.  Oh those gals do it the best.  Kendalyn got a short tour of where mommy lived.  We drove in during naptime and out during naptime so she didn't get the campus tour  ; )

These girls played hard.

 Kendalyn and Shaylee

Shaylee read to all the kids

 Natalie in the dress up house.  This is the best toy ever for those times children want to write on the wall.  Can't wait to get one for Miss K

 It's never too early to learn your shapes.  I hope Kendalyn was a good student  : )

And then...the kids get into MAKE-UP

 Shaylee and Meagan
I think we have a few more lessons to go on Make-Up 101

 Feeding time, HA!!

 This picture of Meagan reminds me of the closing of Hee Haw (maybe) where they come out of the windows to tell jokes and say good-bye  (And I only saw Hee Haw in syndication)

Time for a nap. 

Shelbee, Shaylee, Kendalyn, Meagan and Natalie


I can't wait to see the girls again.  We always have a great time.  I think we might take a trip this spring to give Kendalyn the tour of campus. 

So there you have it...another first-Kendalyn's First trip to Aggieland

Christmas 2011-Part 3

Christmas morning was beyond a blessing.  Little Miss K oooooed and ahhhhed over everything she saw.  

She enjoyed seeing her toys.

She loved playing with everything.

Sweet baby taking care of her sweet baby.  The stroller helps her to learn how to walk.  She loves it and is always on the go but she does not like getting stuck against furniture or having anything in her way, HA!!

She loved opening her presents.

Our First Christmas as a family of 3!

And then we spent the afternoon snuggling our girl.  Who unfortunately started to run a fever.

We were THOSE parents calling the doctor on Christmas evening.  Her fever broke that morning.  Daddy and I enjoyed the cuddles....selfishly.

We loved our first Christmas together.  We can't wait to see what the year holds.

Wishing you a wonderful 2012!

We are excited to see what 2012 holds.
