BACK HOME

A couple of weeks ago we traveled to my home town of Stephenville for my step-sister's high school graduation. This is also where Andy and I met in college, at Tarleton State University, so we always enjoy going back and reminiscing about "the good old days". We started with a family dinner at The Agave (a restaurant at the local bar where we used to hang out...awww). If any of you know the story of me and Andy you know that this is the bar (City Limits) where I "picked Andy up" LOL! Some of my friends from High School were able to join us so we could get all our boys together. We attempted to get a group picture and I think we did pretty good considering there are three babies in the picture. I can't believe we all have boys! Jennifer also has Tryston but we couldn't get him to join us in the picture... :(



(April & Banner, Me & Owen, Jennifer & Asher)

(Okay... so we had to bribe Banner with a sucker and a balloon which Owen was trying to steal but at least they are all looking at the camera. Look how good Asher was!)

Rachael got a beautiful Juicy purse from her cousin for her graduation so I of course had her pose with it...

Let's just take a minute to congratulate Rachael on her high school graduation! Way to go Rach! She is headed to Tarleton this fall and is moving out on her own on July 1st! Good luck Rachael! We know you are going to have a blast!

So back to the trip... The next day my dad cooked out and we swam and had my friend Lyndsey and her family over for lunch. Her son, Liam, just loved Owen and they had a good time swimming in the hot tub. Liam kept saying "Owen likes me", it was too cute! Of course Owen just loved Liam and really wanted to run around with him.

Lyndsey just had a baby girl, Heagan, who was also able make the trip. Isn't she just precious?! Liam is also very proud of his little sister and loves her very much! It was so sweet to see them together!

It was so great to go back home and see all of my friends from high school. We don't get to see each other very often so it was great to visit. Even if it was a little difficult with all these babies! We also had a great time at my dad's house. Owen has some new favorite toys... baking sheets and measuring cups ;) You have to improvise when you are away from home ;) Thanks Gabby and Bibi for introducing Owen to these new LOUD toys ;)
