Joined a Gym


Well we finally joined a gym!!! Kevin and I have been wanting to work out more and get back into shape! Last week we did a free 7 day trial at Lifetime Fitness, but we just couldn't justify right now spending that much money for a membership. Maybe someday when we are more in a habit of working out. We went by a smaller gym yesterday and checked it out but Kevin wasn't too impressed. So I told him we should go by 24hour Fitness to see if he liked it. After much debate...we SIGNED UP!! YAY! So now I have to get motivated to go work out at least 3 times a week there! Here's to us getting into SHAPE!!

Survivor Finale

So last night we had a Survivor Finale Viewing Party at our house!! This year we drafted players during the first episode! Whoever had the player that won, was deemed the Winner for the Season! We even got a trophy that we're going to pass around each season with whomever wins!! Loads of fun!! Anyways Sarah and I cooked a steam pot for dinner. We had potatoes, corn on the cob, sausage, and shrimp all boiled together in cajun seasoning and we had some garlic cheese biscuits to go along with it! It was really good! Shelby came over too and made us brownies from scratch; they were YUMMY!!! Anyways we had a great time and in the end Kevin's player, Sandra, ended up being the winner for Survivor 20- Heroes vs. Villains! And of course he gloated all night long!! ;) Enjoy our pics!! Next Sunday we have the LOST FINALE PARTY!! Stay tuned....

The winner with his trophy!

Chuck E Cheese with Addison

So yesterday Kevin and I went with Addison to Chuck E Cheese!  We had a good time! I think Addison gets a bit overwhelmed by all the things to do there! Of course her favorite part was finally getting to see the "REAL" Chuck E Cheese when he came out! She wanted to give him a high five, and then he started to walk off and she wanted to give him knocks, and then he started to walk off again and she wanted to give him a hug! It was precious!!

I think Beau and Kevin had a fun time using the tokens to play games!! Of course they were doing it to win Addison tickets, but they enjoyed themselves too!!

A fun filled Saturday!

We have a fun filled Saturday this past weekend! My parents came into town and the 4 of us woke up early and headed down to Stonewall, Texas! We went and toured President LBJ's Ranch. We saw where he went to school, where he was born, and his Ranch House. It was named the "Texas White House" while he was president. I've been down the ranch before when I was younger but they recently opened up the house after Lady Bird Johnson passed away. It was neat to see the inside of it! Not all of it was open, but what we did see was interesting! My family loves LBJ and it was fun to show Kevin more about him.

After that we headed to Fredericksburg for some lunch. We ended up going to Catfish Haven on Main Street. REALLY GOOD! Then we hit up about 5 different wineries between Fredericksburg and Johnson City. We had a great time!!!

We ended the night by going to watch my #1 RANKED TEXAS LONGHORN BASEBALL TEAM beat Baylor in a 14 inning game!! It was an intense but fun game!! HOOK 'EM!

Kevin's First Camping Experience

So Kevin has NEVER been camping before! Our small group has talked about doing a couples camping trip for awhile but Kevin has always stated camping isn't for him because he enjoys modern technology too much! HAHA! The guys in our group even had a camping trip a few months ago and everyone went BUT Kevin! So we decieded that we were gonna go on this camping trip and I was going to make Kevin go no matter what!

Somehow in the midst of planning the trip, Kevin talked with another guy in our group about learning how to smoke a brisket. So they decided that he'd teach Kevin on the camping trip since it was like a 12-14 hour process. KEVIN WAS IN, just so he could learn how to smoke a brisket properly! YAY!

So this past weekend was the camping trip. We stayed two nights, which I haven't even done before. The first night was a bit rough because it stormed in the middle of the night and our old tent we borrowed from my parents had some holes in the roof, so we got a little wet and Kevin got NO sleep!

Other than the rainy night I would say we had a successful camping trip and it was better than Kevin expected! The boys played bocce ball all day Saturday, some people fished, and we had smores Saturday night ( MY FAVORITE!!!)

So we had a fun weekend, we were for sure TIRED and SORE yesterday after we got home and need a bit to recover, but it was fun!

Kevin cutting up his first brisket he helped make!! So proud of him and EVERYONE LOVED IT!!!
