Well, it was fun. My family loaded up in the big green bus, attended a wedding in Odessa, ate sandwiches in the car, drove to Dallas to spend the night with my grandfather, went to church with him on Sunday, ate sanwiches in the car, drove to Houston to spend time with my aunt, uncle, & cousins and made it in time for church on Sunday night. Over the course of the week, we had shopping trips, tea times, a "big girl" lunch, a picnic, a sightseeing adventure at Ima Hogg's house, and ate sandwiches 2 more times in the car.

Here are some highlights:

This is the Diana garden at Ima Hogg's house...it was truly spectacular, unfortunately, I did not get the "look cute" memo. I got the "playing in the park" memo. You can check out the entire grounds at: www.mfah.org/bayoubend/garden.asp

 This is a GREAT low budget movie that my cousin Sarah & I selected from Blockbuster. It was sooo good...in a cheesy, embarassing, kind-of confusing way. I would recommend it to anyone in need of a good flick. 

This would be the Cookie Monster from Cheddar's...worth it.

Spring Break '09 was a total success. I can't wait until next year!

Oh, Hollie!
We all knew you and loved you
When we went to Seek Week with you.
What we didn't know,
was what was down below,
attached to those skinny little legs.

Your built-in skis.
How convenient, how cute, how...LONG.

Well, all the craziness of the past few weeks is over. Worth the Wait was...well, worth the wait and all the girls that attended would say the same thing. We were so busy eating and laughing and talking and ( if you are Anna, Berkely, Amber, Marianne or Katie) chatting up random hotel guests, working out, or running down halls you weren't staying on that we don't have any pictures of the weekend! :) Too bad for you!

So now, I am sitting in my office, enjoying the floor heater (yes, I use it year round), listening to the Worth the Wait soundtrack (compiled by Mixmaster Millie), and eating an apple. Can life get any better? I think not.

Spring Break is almost here and with it comes and exciting party for you guys! We will be hosting a "We ♥  Spring Break Beach Party". This, of course, will mean that the sand volleyball court will be seeing some serious action. And that there will be other beach shenanigans happening...I can't wait! Mark your calendar for March 13th and then go ahead and pencil me in on March 14th. If you are confused about that one, shame on you. March 14th = the day I entered the world/the day hope for humanity was born/the best day of Rob, Julie, & Mandie Bratcher's lives. Feel free to celebrate me.

So, I'll let you get back to your mindless Myspacing and I'll get back to sitting, listening, and that yummy apple.
