Tech game!!

We went with some friends to see the Red Raiders beat Baylor at Cowboy's Stadium. We had great seats and had a really fun time! We did a little tailgating before the game, but not much.

Taylor & Jeff's wedding

Brian and I went to a wedding for a friend from work, Jeff.

It was very pretty and so creative using Thanksgiving as a sort of theme. They decorated with white pumpkins among other things and it was really gorgeous. The songs during the wedding were all about being thankful, etc.

Cute Raider

Cute Raider sleeping for real...


And then...Mason drew a cute picture of Raider... and then the little person on the right in the picture is Mason laying down with his arms up...he said.

A night out!

Brian and I were headed to a party and Nesha was going to babysit the kids at our friends house. Before we left, Mason wanted to take our picture. We had a little photo session.

Brian, Amy, Christy, Tam.. before we left. We had a really fun night. We went to a going away party for one of our coworkers who took a 3 year assignment in Italy. Then Christy and I talked Brian and Tam into taking us downtown FW for a little dancing!

Additional Before / After Pictures of the house

Before, this was the view of the entry way looking into the guest room... and the following picture was the guest room before.. the previous owners used it as a study.

And This is the view of the entry way looking into the guest room after... THANK YOU DINA!!!!!!!!!! Dina helped me with the wall decor and I LOVE LOVE LOVE how it turned out!!

The guest bathroom that leads to the pool... Before...

And After... I wanted to use a paint color that I saw in the Southern Living Idea House in Port Aransas and do the Black and White accents. I also wanted sort of a beachy feel since it would be used as the pool bath... I printed some of our Port Aransas beach pictures in black and white and framed them.
