Hey there!

Hey there, friends!  So sorry I haven't written in a while.  Stacy says I need to update so here I am.  

Earlier this week Pete & I had a awesome 1+ hour Skype session with Stacy.  It was lovely!  She was a little tipsy on semi-free mimosas so it was very entertaining.  We always end up sending each other funny youtube videos to watch.  She introduced me to Drunk Kitchen and I introduced her to Drunk History.  (Theme here?)  Both are highly entertaining.  Look them up.

Tonight Pete is at the Astros-Rangers baseball game.  After work, I came home and took a long warm shower and lounged in my robe for a while.  It was spectacular.  Tonight I also got to chat with multiple friends on the phone.  Love!

Until next time!

Father's Day

Happy belated Father's Day to all of you daddies out there.  Pete & I spent the weekend in Austin.  Saturday we did a little outlet mall shopping, visited my cousins adorable 5 week old, Sophia, and hung out with my mom.

On Sunday we went to a delicious "Tool Time" brunch at the UT Club with Pete's parents & grandparents.  It was really nice to see everyone!

"Vacation"

The kiddos are in Italy so until the 25th, so I am officially on "vacation."  I'm not working for two weeks, but since I have no real vacation planned it's hard for me to really think of it as a vacation.

Originally, Pete and I were suppose to house sit/watch the dogs while the kids were gone.  A family member is staying at their house now, so that got cancelled.  Unfortunately, it didn't get cancelled until a few days before the kids left so I couldn't plan any fun trips.  Super lame.  I've just been sitting around the house and running errands.  I've caught up on many a TV show and even gotten my car inspected and it's oil changed.  What am I going to do for another week!?

Last weekend Pete and I went to visit his parents in DFW.  It was great to see them.  I hadn't seen them since the wedding!  We forced them to Top Golf with us, which they ended up loving.  Of course the Monday AFTER we went, Top Golf was on the Dallas Groupon.  Bad timing!

This weekend we are venturing to Austin for Father's Day brunch with Pete's parents and grandpa.  It should be fun, but I am not looking forward to the drive.

I really want a real vacation soon.  Any ideas?  I need an escape.  I;d also like to see my niece and nephew soon.  I feel like I'm missing them grow up.  Thomas starts Kindergarten this year - what?!  I need to hug him before he stops letting me.

Love you all!!
