All right so I know it has been forever since I have posted. To tell you the truth we had so much going on the past few months I never had a chance to sit down and post. And then when I did I was like tooo much to post!! Augh!! So here goes....
In April we came out to find our house in San Antonio!! We searched a billion homes and we found this one which we love. It is in a historic district close to down town. We call it our goldie locks and the 3 bears house. It is not too bad of a fix up. We finished the hard wood floors before we moved in at the beginning of June, and we have been painting and doing some other small touches to it. The kitchen and bathrooms had already been redone (I love granite countertops, and I actually am really starting to love teh gas range.) The best part, we got it for 1/2 price since it was a forclosure!! YES!!The first of May was spent finishing up projects and getting our house sold. We also spent a lot of time with our friends. Here are a few of our good friends and us at the circus before we left (okay it was a really crappy circus in Lewisburg, but still it was fun to have an adventure!!) We miss all of our friends out there, we love you guys!!
At the end of may we headed to the Caribean for one last adventure. We went on a cruise to Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Belize. It was so fun, we climbed a water fall formation in Jamaica, snorkeled and swam (and Mekynzie kissed) wild stingrays in Grand Cayman, and went to the ancient ruins in Belize!! (so a lot of our water pictures were taken with an underwater camera that I don't have digital). It was so much fun, Chris's brother Corey and my mom came too, it was lots of fun!!!
And so I am his Sneaky Sneaky wife!!! I got this crazy idea years ago to save all my money to buy Chris his dream car for Graduation!!! It happened to work out so I could. He walked out of graduation and there was his dream black corvette convertible sitting there with a big bow. He was speechless and wouldn't even get in the car for about 10 minutes!! I was so worried he was going to kill me for spending all of that money. (And if you know what his last beate $700 car looked like you know that this is quite the upgrade!!) Now he can enjoy the 20 minute ride to the hospital and back! (Even though it is at 4:00 in the morning and 9:00 at night!!)

Hey guys! I am so glad you guys are loving Texas! I can't believe you bought Chris a car, what a lucky guy! I think that is the best graduation present I've ever heard of, Eric certainly got a rotten egg compared to that (we just won't tell him!) Miss you guys!
I LOVE your house!!! It is beautiful and looks so charming. :) And Chris... SWEET RIDE!!!! That is awesome Alicia that you saved up for that. What an awesome idea. Glad that you are doing well in Texas. :)
Holy smokes! that is an upgrade from a $700 car. Congrats on graduation, the cute house, the granite counter tops, the gas stove (I loved my old one in Utah), a DARLING little girl (love her pictures.) and the move. Seems like everything is turning up roses. Congrats you guys. You deserve it!
You guys have had a crazy schedule lately. I was getting chills when I was reading about Chris' graduation because I can't believe that will be us soon. You are an awesome wife! I can't believe you got Chris a car. I guess I need to start saving to get Vince something.
