Texas!

Y'all.....so much happened while I was in Texas, I won't even try to tell it all.

Just know that I shopped, (of course) had a mani-pedi, ate too much, laughed a LOT, stayed up late and had a fabulous time with my family....as usual.

Here are just a few of the 70 pictures I took while I was there.


....with two of my great-nieces

with my hilarious niece, Jos
(her shirt says "Not Everything is Flat In Kansas")
I'd say she lives us to that!


My sister-in-law and one of my nieces are florists
so they did all the flower arrangements themselves.
The rest of us were to have "helped".
Mostly we just b.s.'d, ate, drank and laughed our asses off.
Here is Molly checking out the flowers.


One of the finished arrangements

Pretty pregnant Rob....

Cute dress!


Cutest cake!
Very Anne Geddes...

Lunch Monday before my flight with my brother, sister-in-law
and the expectant couple.

Please keep my nephew-in-law in your thoughts and prayers.
He leaves for Iraq September 7th.

  1. Pretty much I just looked at the Kansas photo. Heck I take 70 photos on a slow day around town.

    Go crazy, woman! I bet you I will literally take a couple of thousand photos in NYC. I took over 2,000 in Ireland. I'm sick like that.

  9. A mani-pedi in TX - do they differ than in other parts of the world??

    What a gorgeous cake! They don't do anything half assed in the Lone Star State, do they??

    LOVE the dress. Need to find some like it since I still fit in regular dresses with no waists on them - luckily that's the style!
