Little Swimmers!
How adorable are these babies in their swim suits?! I am so thankful we have a neighborhood pool to go to. This was our first experience of the season and I am sure there will be many more to come!

Homegirls and Wine!
Two weekends ago I went to the Wein and Saengerfest in New Braunfels with two of my girlfriends from Jr. High. They are the only two friends that I really keep in touch with from San Marcos and we are trying to keep up a monthly meet up between our scattered cities, jobs and lives. It's always so great to catch up with these girls because we literally have known everybody who has ever entered and exited our lives since we were in 7th grade. We bonded through the Jr. High pep squad and they were bridesmaids in my wedding.
The festival was so much fun and somewhere between the third glass of sweet Pinot Grigio, the pork chop on a stick, the smelling of "chicken fried bacon" (not even kidding!), and rocking out to 80s music with the Spazmatics on stage....we realized we have been friends for 17 years! And since they aren't going anywhere...I feel confident that they will still be my friend after posting the following picture of us from 8th grade. Is it weird that we are standing in the same exact order?
Spring...eh...Summer is here!
Summer is here...well not according to the calendar, but according to my thermometer it is!
During the summer, we can just let loose, and take off a layer or two of clothing....
We can try new foods....

Update
So quick update to catch you up on happenings of 2010....
January- Chris and I celebrated our 6 year wedding Anniversary! It doesn't seem at all like we've been married that long! Perhaps because we haven't actually been together for an entire year since 2004. Yes, the Army married life has us on a different calendar all together. But hubby has been good....diamond ear rings and necklace in addition to the monthly floral bouquet! But the best gift of all was a devotion to our marriage that we will be enforcing in 2011.....One Weekend a Month...Two Weeks a Year (I'll explain in 2011).
February- Yay for RR!!! Chris was able to come home for his 2 weeks of Rest and Relaxation that he can take mid-deployment. Perfect timing to celebrate his son's 1st birthday with family and friends. In addition, we were able to see family on a weekend trip to Houston and have a few days of us time on the Riverwalk and actually go see a movie ( a huge deal for both of us). We were also forced to veg on the couch due to several days of rain and freezing temperatures. Infact the only day the sun actually came out on his R&R was on Jude's birthday party!
March-Pity party...missing Chris and single parent sorrow....woe is me. OK, not the whole month. Thank goodness for mom's group, random play dates with Rikki and Miller, and a visit from the May Family!
April-New found independence (for Jude and myself!).....Hooray for North Central Christian Learning Center-MDO! Plus Easter fun with family! Pictures coming soon!
May- Summer is officially here....it is suppose to reach 90 degrees here in SA today! It's the count down to new and exciting things....Chris' return home and a possible job? But the Texas heat will no doubt make this summer feel much longer than it actually is. I love my Texas weather EXCEPT for the summer. Does anyone have a home on Lake Tahoe that I could run away to?
This summer......COMING SOON!
