Tuesday Favorites?

Welcome back to another addition of Friday Tuesday Favorites. Yes I am fully aware that today is Tuesday but it all ways but the actual day, today is my Friday. With the 4th of July tomorrow (no work) and the 3rd Annual River Trip starting on Thursday, I am cruising on in to a 5 day weekend. :)

What I am loving:

Getting to go to my first professional soccer game in the Houston Dynamo's new stadium tonight with our couple BBFs. SCORE!

Getting to see my family tomorrow. My lovely/amazing/awesome grandparents are going to watch Chanel and Shep this weekend during our get-a-way to the Hill Country. We're also getting a new dryer and a lawnmower that isn't from the Great Depression...like this one that we have had to use the past few weeks. LOL.

3rd Annual River Trip!!! Less than 48 hours away!

Not only to I get to be here for 3 full days.....

but I get to be with some of the most amazing people! :):):) I could not be any more excited. And, cherry on top, I found an awesome bathing suit at Victoria Secret for the big trip.

Have a fun, safe, and awesome 4th of July celebrating the greatest country in the World!

See y'all next week dolls!

Friday Favorites

It's time for another round of linking up with Carlie at The Duplechin Daily for Friday Favorites. :)

What I am loving:

In just 14 short days I will be in New Braunsfuls with nearly all of my closest friends for the 3rd annual RIVER TRIP! We're heading up Thursday afternoon and starting the trip with dinner in Gruene that night followed by Schiltterbaun on Friday and floating the river on Saturday. AND THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is our cabin. Yes, it's awesome. :)

Getting back to the gym. The past two weeks we have been moving. We're still not 100% complete or unpacked but we are pretty close. Needless to say, we had little to no time to get a workout in, nor did we feel like it when we did because we were so tired from moving. We finally joined the local 24 hour fitness by our house and it feels great to be back. When I say it feels great, I mean mentally. Physically...I feel like I have been hit by a truck! Les Mills body pump= it hurts to pick up a route 44 sonic drink. (Which I treat myself to every Friday morning). I'm shocked I didn't call is sick today from not being able to physically remove myself from bed. Oh well, no pain no gain right???

Free Weekends! I know that probably doesn't make much sense but as I was looking at my calendar for the next few months I realized that September-October, Trevor and I will only have 2 open weekends...for two months! Between Aggie Football (WHOOP!), bachelor & bachelorette parties, and other wedding festivities, consider us booked. I am thankful for upcoming July because we will be able to relax and enjoy our new house.

Summer Parties!  This Saturday we are attending a "Mid Summer's Night Dream" Party that our good friends parents are hosting at their new home in Katy Lakes, and next weekend we have a backyard bash for our friend's 30th birthday party. Woo!

Blogs. I have almost been blogging for a year now. It's been a lot of fun and a nice way to share what is going on in our lives with family and friends. It's been wonderful seeing other friends start blogs of their own. One of my best friends has a recipe blog that has really blown up. (Check it out for some great recipes! http://domesticatedduchess.blogspot.com/ ) However, some blogs will show you more than you could have ever imagined, that thought however, is for another post.

Happy first official weekend of Summer Dolls!

Loaded Questions, Traditions, and Countdowns

Happy Hump-Day everyone!

I hope y'alls week as been going smoothly. Since I last came to you, I took a trip to New Braunfels with some wonderful friends and Trev to float the river. After heading out of town as soon as I got off work on Friday, we headed towards Austin to spend some time with family when we found out that our plans "changed" So after finding out THAT information we decided to head New Braunfels to meet up with J.C. and Marina early. After we checked in at our cottage, we all headed into Gruene with the Surbers to eat at the Gristmil. It was quite delicious and the margaritas were yummy. After dinner and some light shopping we ended up at a local bar/restaurant where we spent the next hour just talking and hanging out while watching the staff act like fools.

We then made our way back to the cottage (so cute) where we spent the rest of the night playing the game of the weekend, "Loaded Questions". And O-M-G did this game have us laughing so hard we were nearly crying. Seriously one of the funnest games I have ever played. As a result of playing for 3 hours that night, inside jokes are plentiful with this group. Shout out to Marina for bringing the game and all I have to say is "You". :) And to J.C. and Trev I am still singing "Day and Night" randomly this week, thanks for getting that stuck in my head.

The next day Henry&Heather, Ashley&Neil, and Travis&Nadia all came and met up with us at our cottage. We then made our way (may have been the long way but that's okay) to the Comal River where we had a day of perfection with lots of sun, fun, friends, and drinks. I remember at one point on the river thinking "It doesn't get any better than this". It really was a perfect day.

 After the river we went back to the cottage where some people chilled, some people starting cooking, and some people napped. I was in the napping category and I am completely okay with that. :) The rest of the evening was spent with the girls lying up in the loft having girl talk and the boys downstairs talking about, you guessed it, A&M to the SEC. We finished up the night with another round of "Loaded Questions" with myself, Trev, JC, Marina, Heather and Henry. Once again, we walked away with even more inside jokes after about an hour and a half of playing. In the words of Heather, Loaded Questions+Good friends=Great times!

This is our cottage. When you walked in there was a couch, TV stand, and small dining table. As you walked forward the kitchen was on the right, the bathroom was on the left and at the back was the bedroom. To the right of the bedroom was the "no fat people allowed" staircase that lead up to the loft. I say the "no fat people allowed" statement because it seriously was the smallest staircase you will ever see.

 

Sunday after cleaning up the cabin and getting ready, we all headed to Cooper's Old Time Pit BBQ for some lunch. If you haven't ever been to Cooper's I would highly recommend it. It's some of the best BBQ I have ever had. (Besides my Dad's)

We wrapped up lunch and all headed home. All of us Houston folks were missing our children pups and were definitely ready to get them back home. It really was a great weekend with great friends and I think we all agreed this is definitely going to become a tradition. After all, with us Aggies, if you do something twice it becomes a tradition. :)

Countdown Update:

-8 Days till Trevor and I's 4 year anniversary

-10 Days till my birthday party

-11 Days till my actual birthday

Absolutely cannot wait for all of the exciting days coming up!

Until next time, Happy Hump-Day Dolls.
