Before we had Livy, traveling was relatively easy. Afterall, we could take Avery along or Nene would keep her. Now that we have two, it’s a little more challenging. Taking a vacation with both of them really isn’t a vacation and Nayely, our nanny, has school in the evenings. With fast-paced and busy careers, Scott [...]

Girls Weekend Getaway
Posted in Family, Travel on January 23, 2012 | 2 Comments »
This past year, my parents gave the “boys” a fishing trip and the “girls” got a shopping getaway for birthdays. I think this is the best idea as it makes for a truly memorable experience that can be cherished for a lifetime. Mom, Dawn, Hillary, and I went to San Antonio for a weekend of [...]

Last Thursday, we celebrated Scott’s birthday! He always does such special, thoughtful things for my birthday so I decided to surprise him with a trip to New York City. He was surprised!

Only a month behind! We packed up right after moving and went to the beach for a long weekend to enjoy ocean breezes and cool water to beat the heat. Avery and Livy love being outside, especially when it is at the beach. The water was quite clear (not normal for Texas beaches) so we [...]

Our annual family trip to Lost Pines was a blast! Last year when we went, Livy was a peanut in my tummy and Avery had no idea what a sister really was. We actually found out that we were having a girl on our last trip to Lost Pines. It’s amazing how fast time flies [...]
Frio River 2011

Our annual trip to the Frio brought about several firsts this year! It was my first time to go in over 20 years where we weren’t able to float because it was too dry. On the brighter side, it was Olivia’s first time to experience the Frio River and she loved it! From our home, [...]

We just got back from Cabo after being away for a week. Scott and I had an amazing time and decided to relax so much that we didn’t even take any pictures. That’s a first for me! We spent most of our time laying around the pool or at the spa. I even read 3 [...]

We headed to the beach for the weekend last week for a short little getaway. It was Olivia’s first time to the beach and as always, she just went with the flow. We had such a good time with the girls. My childhood memories of going to the beach are so special and I want [...]

The weekend before Thanksgiving, we took my family to Fredericksburg and had a great time. The weather was beautiful and my sisters and mom wore me out. My mom loves to shop! She likes to look at everything and there definitely isn’t a shortage of cute little boutiques to look in. I just love Fredericksburg [...]
