Sweet Babies

On Friday night, Steve & I went over to our good friends, Rita & Kevin's house, to spend some time with them & their sweet babies! Rita delivered twins, Laney & Bryce, at the end of February & due to their 2 month early arrival, they needed to spend some time in the NICU. We had been watching Laney & Bryce grow through their pictures and we were anxiously awaiting the day when they both got to come home! Bryce came home first about 3 weeks ago and Laney joined them at home this past Thursday! YAY! They are absolutely precious and so tiny!!

Graduations!!

Congrats to my over-achieving sisters, Summer & Kendall! :) They both just graduated with their masters! We headed down to College Station this past Saturday for Kendall's graduation. She got her masters in education. Then, on Thursday, we went out to DBU for Summer's graduation. She got her masters in christian counseling. Congrats, sisters! We're so proud of you!!

On a side note, I know my parents are glad we are all completely finished with school now. (and sitting through graduations!) We were all counting on Thursday at dinner how many years my parents have had kids in college & it has been a total of 12 years...not counting those years when a couple of us were there at the same time! WHEW! I guess thats the way it goes when you have 3 kiddos & they go on for their masters! We are so thankful that you allowed us to get a wonderful education, Mom & Dad!

Kendall's Big Day!

Polo!

Today we enjoyed our first polo match! Steve's cousin, Charlotte, helps put on the North Texas polo club/games. We went out there with Steve's grandmother & Aunt Sandy. We didn't really know what to expect, but it was very laid back atmosphere & the game was pretty easy to follow! We brought some lawn chairs & had a picnic on the lawn while enjoying some good polo. At half time, all the spectators get to go out on the polo field for champagne & the divot stomp, where you basically get free champagne & walk around & step on patches of grass that need to be flattened back into the ground. Pretty fun! It was a great atmosphere and we will definitely be going back & bringing some friends with us! If you're looking for something different, fun, & family friendly you should check it out! It is every Sunday at 5:00pm. Check it out at: www.northtexaspoloclub.com
