Lil Bubba Goes To Prom!

Yes this sounds like it could be the name of a movie or something, but it's true this past weekend my baby brother went to his senior prom! Of course the whole family had to be there to see him off to prom and we even managed to get a few pictures in the process!!

Aaron wasn't thrilled to have his picture taken. That or he wasn't sure who that was in a tux!

Matt & Chelsea

Mom, Matt, & Chelsea

We love our lil bubba!

We are all standing in the kitchen window making sure he opened the door for her! He was so mad when he saw all of us standing there!

Aaron thought it was funny that Uncle Matt was going to prom!

Ramblings of Life

Ok I just had a whole post typed and it deleted it...let's try this again!

Life has been crazy for us right now! It is almost the end of the semester (only three more weeks!) and then it will be time for my mini-mester to start and then summer session 1 and then summer session 2 yes I am insane for doing this and working, but it gets me that much closer to graduation! I could use all the prayers I can get for summer school this summer, because I am taking 2 math classes and me and math usually don't mix very well. Though these classes are imperative to the classes that I will take in the fall, so send the prayers my way! Also after summer session 2 ends it will nearly be time for the fall semester to begin, but not before we go on vacation to Destin! I can't wait! A whole week of fun and laying out on the beach...I need that vacation today! Brian is doing good...just working like crazy!

A few congrats are in order....first of all congrats to my pal Allison who got engaged about 2 weeks ago!! Her wedding is July 19th and I can't wait to stand up there beside her as one of her bridesmaids! Allison and I have been friends since oh forever ago!! Love ya girl & so excited for you!! Also congrats to my friend Jamie who got married last weekend! I couldn't be there, but I heard it was beautiful!!

Also a big congrats to my lil bubba who is about 6 weeks away from graduation! I can't believe my baby brother is about to graduate from high school! Way to make me feel old lil bubba! Brian and I can't wait to cheer the loudest on graduation night! You know I'll probably get kicked out for having an air horn but oh well! He's also going to the prom next week!!

Well it's been nearly 3 three weeks since Julie's been home and unfortunately she has to go back to Iraq on Sunday morning. Julie you know that I love you and will miss you like crazy...three weeks wasn't long enough! I am getting a care package in the mail ASAP and maybe it will get there before you do! I am so proud of you! Thank you for all the you do for our freedom!

Ok I'd better get back to work on some productive things! We are headed to Brian's parent's house this weekend after I get off work.

Cheers: To working our DJ situation out...I think!
Jeers: To the lab assistant making me throw my drink away!

Help....Wedding Stuff!!

Does anyone out there have any suggestions for a DJ, florist, or a place to get a cake from for a wedding? These are three things that Brian and I are trying to tackle at the momement and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I will post more later!

SHSU Ring Ceremony & Wedding Updates

On April 1st I got my SHSU ring (hence the orange font) and I couldn't believe the day finally got here! I ordered it back in October (the day Aaron was born actually) and didn't get it until last week. I can't wait to be an alumni of that great university! We are a big bearkat family with Brian, Guy, and Mikey all being alumni from there (I must mention that Mikey is first and foremost a fightin Texas Aggie...he just got his masters from SHSU) as well as some other family members. We can't wait for Lil Bubba to follow in all of our footsteps and become a bearkat as well! When I walked across the stage to get my ring I could hear my daddy cheering the loudest!

Here are a few pictures from that day, they're not the best quality because I had to scan them in.

Brian and I have also changed our wedding plans a bit. We are still have our wedding at The Vineyards at Waverly House Manor but are just having our ceremony here and then we will have our reception at the new Point Aquarius cluhouse. We decided to change our plans to better fit the needs of our budget and plus I think this will end up working out better. We have some planning still to do, but can't wait for our big day to get here!

I will put some recent pictures of Aaron in this post, just because he's the most adorable nephew in the whole world and I think he's so cute! I want to say a big congratulations to a good family friend, James McKeehan who got married last weekend!
