Family Reunion !!

We attended our family reunion this past week, and it was an indescribable feeling being around all my family.. It was also a celebration for my grandmothers 85th birthday. I know most of the people who visit my blog are my friends on facebook, so that's why I've been a little slacker on updating my blog! So, not much more to say about that, pictures are worth a thousand words.. LOL

Ethan (and Luke in DC) turn 1

Men.... short attention span!

It would be nice to have both of the boys on this blog entry, but Fabe and Angie are still in DC, so we celebrated Ethan's party, sans Luke.
Cristina made the cutest cake.. She gets her crafty genes from my mom I guess, not to mention Lauren's too, now she is a true artist I wasn't so lucky. Here are some pictures of the little celebration.
I love my nephews!!! ( and niece... love ya Gretch!)

Children of the corn

Last night Cris and I hung out, I love hanging out with my sister... I love that we're so close. She's so pretty too. No need to go on and on.. I'll just post the pics.. Just like the saying goes

"A picture is worth a thousand words"

Enough said. lol


So today Tony and I went to Bartlett to pay Robert a little visit. It was a rainy day on and off I guess. We had the top down in his convertible, and just as we got into Bartlett, Tony decided to put the top back on because we saw some dark clouds.... well not 2 seconds later, it starts to pour... whew!!! It was close... Once we got into Bartlett, we were clicking pictures left and right, we even got a picture of a little bunny. Anyway... on our way to Bartlett, we saw nothing but corn fields... So what are we to do??? Reallocate some corn, according to Tony! lol
So we were the corn snatchers.. after that we went to eat some yummie BBQ in Temple, Chuck's Pea Ridge Bbq & Steak House, a cute little hole-in-the-wall, where the owner sat down with us and we shared a little conversation about his fabulous food. After that, with our bellies filled, we took off and headed back to Dallas. On our way back we stopped at Joe Pool Lake, and walked on the dam. We took pictures of the flowers, and after a long day, we got home, and I crashed -- The best nap I've had in a long time.

King Tut at the Dallas Museum of Art

On Sunday, Jeff Renner, Cris, Lauren and I went to the DMA to see the King Tut exhibit... It was amazing.. We loved it. I secretly took pictures until I got caught.. Dammit!
So.. here are pictures of that..
and just for the record.... My sister is gorgeous... and so talented.. she even made a mummy out of metallic pipe cleaners.. WOW! It was amazing... I guess I'm not the only amazing one (hence the name of my blog)
Our AMAZINGNESS runs in the family... lmao.... I'm so funny... *my true friends know how sarcastic I'm being...** I'm really not a gloater... only when it comes to my sistah

Quilting for Paul

We had some t-shirts of Paul, and Cristina had the idea to make a quilt out of them. At first I wasn't sure how it would look. When I saw it, I was amazed by my sister's talent. I really think it came out beautiful. Hope you like the pictures.
