So Greg went to Nashville last weekend and he decided he was due for an adventure.
Instead of staying at a hotel he thought he would try out a "rent a room" site and see if the lowest priced room was actually that bad.
Well it WAS terrible (18 bucks a night...cheap but cheap for a good reason) and to top it all off he was sick and having to take naps between meetings and the wedding he was attending. I told him he better be glad he got that out of his system because there was no way I was going to stay in a basement room of a boarding house that reminded me of the room from Silence of the Lambs! Come on people you know what I'm talking about right? If you haven't seen the movie I don't recommend it (it's so messed up) but if you have you totally know what I'm talking about!!!
Greg took a video tour of his room for me to see....I think you all need to see it:)
My husband is a nut.

Working Hard
Abby had a project for music class and it she had to do quite a bit of research about the piano. She is a very hard worker and I never have to get after her to do her homework which is always a plus:) I am very proud of her and her desire to learn and be teachable.
I just love this girl.
Finally!
We finally got bar stools for our bar this week! Yay! It just hasn't been a priority for us but we decided the additional seating would be a plus in the future! The kids are loving eating here for dinner:)
I think it completes the room quite nicely!

Daddy Daughter Date
Greg took Abby on the sweetest date on Friday night. I was at a church event and Reese was at a Birthday party so it was perfect time to give Abby some love:)
Greg wrote up a list of things they had to accomplish for the evening and it was very creative.
He is and always has been a very creative guy..one of the many reasons I love him dearly.
Here's the list:
1. Get your picture in front of an Abby street sign
2. Try a piece of cheese you have never had before (she LOVES cheese and so does Greg:)
3. Design a new outfit (she wants to be a designer when she grows up and Greg loves to encourage her in that area...he's the best Daddy)
4. Try on a new outfit you would NEVER wear in real life:)
5. Eat a dessert from a food truck (they couldn't get this one done because they were out of cupcakes:(
6. Buy a postcard and mail it to yourself
7. Make a sketch of a piece of public art
8. Eat a meal of things that start with your initials (ex. B=Bologna)
9. Sing a karaoke duet- not in the car
And this last picture is a sad one. Boo. While they were at the Food Truck Park the car got towed. They spent an hour and a half tracking it down:( and $300 later they were back to their list...nice adventure indeed.
It ended up on a happy note though and they had a wonderful time!!!!
Abby is so blessed to have such an incredible Daddy.
Oh and they still have a few things left on the list but they will be finishing it up very soon:)

Abby's Christmas Hip Hop Dance!
Abby performed a Christmas dance in her hip hop class...she's getting better every week!
Christmas 2012
We were able to go to Kansas City for Christmas this year and we had a wonderful, relaxing, fun-filled, too much eating time! :)
Holidays are always wonderful but by the time New Years rolls along I am ready to stop eating! Sheech! :)
The kids had so much fun playing in the snow in KC and I am glad they got to because we would have felt horrible because it snowed in TEXAS on Christmas Day...wow! Hated to miss that but we always tend to have a white Christmas in KC so I can't complain!
The kids with their cousin Trevin at the Christmas Eve service |
Reese got a Cowboy jersey from Mommy and Daddy...he was excited even though it was "clothes":) |
lots of stockings...Santa was busy! |
Christmas Eve my sister suggested we do a Ugly Christmas Sweater contest and everyone got into the Sprit....even my Dad:) |
Me and my oh-so-fly husband! |
Even the kids got into it! Abby actually won the ugliest sweater award! Yay Abby!! |
Awesome snowman sweater Dad:) |
Trying to get a picture of the ladies...Abby won again! Ha! |
The guys did way better than we did huh? Too funny! |
Went to eat at Fritz's (burger place) downtown. The kids always love to go eat there because a train brings you your food! |
me and my boy. |
I love house this house did their lights! They win in my book! |
Abby and Granny being silly! |
Christmas morning! Abby asked for giant marshmallows on her list...she's so weird! haha! |
Reese also got a Broncos jersey for Christmas from us too...he was pretty excited as you can see! |
