About Me

John and I have been married for 9 years and live in Katy, Texas in our first home. Johnny is seven years old now and is a blast to be around. Olivia is four and is a little busy bee. We had Drew in April and have loved having a baby in our home again. John works at his father's company, G&A Partners, and just received his MBA from the University of Texas. As for me, I'm playing mommy all day and just loving life!

A Birthday Surprise!!!

What a great weekend!! Papa Mike surprised us and flew in for Johnny boy's birthday and we had a blast! We ran a 5K on saturday morning, went out to breakfast, did some yard work in the fabulous weather, went to Westwood Gymnastics for Johnny's party, went out to dinner with John's parents and had crawfish (dad's first time) and went to church and hung out on Sunday. It was the perfect weekend! Thanks for coming dad!

Thank Goodness for Sundays

After a busy busy week, especially one like last week, it is so nice when Sunday comes around and we can just hang out at home with family. The weather has been amazing lately so we spend a lot of time outside. This Sunday, John's parent's came over with some presents for the kids after their trip to Utah. Andrea, Johnny loves his Chinese books and Grams, Johnny hasn't put his new Hulk toys down yet. You guys are the best!!









Pure BLISS

The Nixons came to town and needless to say, it was sooooo fun! We went to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on Friday, had a shower for Sheree and baby Elsie on Saturday, played at the park and went to Perry's Steak House that night with Mike and Julia too. It was so fun to have them all to ourselves crammed in our little house. Like I said, pure bliss. Thanks for such a great weekend Nixons, we love you and miss you!
