Anniversary Pictures

Our one year anniversary was a few months ago (say what?!), and we decided to have anniversary pictures taken by one of our dear friends, Tony Chicas of Tony Chicas Photography.  We plan to have our pictures taken professionally every five years (that's the plan at least). It's a fun way to see how much we've grown as a married couple.

Here's a peak at some of our favorite shots:














We could not be happier with the outcome of our anniversary pictures, and we hope you enjoyed them as well. Tony and Maria did a fabulous job!

Let Freedom Ring

It seems like the year just started... and now it's already the Fourth of July! I can't complain, though, as I thoroughly enjoy getting together with family and friends, eating good ol' all-American-food, and hanging out by the water - oh and not to mention, some time away from work.

Friday, or more importantly, the Fourth of July, we started our morning with some festive red, white and blue pancakes. Followed by a short trip to the neighborhood pool. Once we left the pool, the weather started to get nasty, so instead of making the trip to The Woodlands' annual fireworks show, we set up some lawn chairs and watched our neighbors shoot them off - which was a perfect end to our Fourth!



Saturday afternoon we met up with my side of the family for some fun in the sun! It was a full boat (dad, step-mom, husband, step-sister, brother-in-law, nephew, step-brother, and future sister-in-law), which also means lots of fun. We only ended up staying out for a few hours, but that was plenty considering it was super-hot.


After the boat, we spent the rest of the afternoon/evening with the hub's side of the family. There we snacked, looked at baby/kid pictures (loved this), and BBQ'd some chicken and steak shish kabobs.

My sweetie as a toothless kiddo!

In other news, our sweet girl, B, is an independence baby! So, we picked up a very special birthday bone for her and T to indulge in. It's a bitter-sweet feeling knowing our baby girl is 5 years old... still seems like yesterday I came home to a sweet, sleepy little puppy.

This is B's infamous I have a toy and I want you to throw it now stare down
I hope everyone had a fantastic Fourth of July!
