Happy 14th Anniversary

In March John & I celebrated our 14th Anniversary.

He gave me these beautiful flowers to help celebrate the occasion.  2011Mar__05

We were also very blessed to getaway for 2 days to Oklahoma.  Our friends the Norton’s kept the boys overnight and John and I went to Echo Canyon Spa & Resort in Sulphur, Oklahoma.  It was a beautiful, relaxing place.  We really just took it easy and enjoyed the beautiful weather, great views and fabulous food.EchoCanyon_Porch 

They also have mineral spas in each room.

They have a restaurant on-site which served an amazing dinner of steak, roasted duck and shrimp with a flourless chocolate cake & chocolate mousse for dessert. 

The next morning they served a 3-course breakfast which included fresh jams made from fruit grown in their own orchard as well as a gluten-free waffle for me!  After we left the resort we enjoyed 9-holes of golf at their local executive course and made our way back home.

It was a great getaway and a wonderful way to celebrate 14 years of marriage!

The “Un” Highlights of March

2011Mar__14

 

 

 

I really thought the kids were too old for such delights…but apparently not.  I keep telling myself that someday I’ll look back and laugh about this.  I figured if I post it in my blog, and print my blog as a photo album, them maybe someday it will come true!

This second picture is something we’d all rather forget.  I won’t go into details here about how this window came to be broken, but let’s just suffice it to say that it won’t be happening again (right boys???).  I was awfully proud of my “Scentsy Wickless” Window.

Birthday Fun

What a wonderful treat to wake up to on my birthday!  We had the Norton kids over for a Kids-Night-Out sleepover on Friday night.  On Saturday, the morning of my birthday I found this outside my door.  It definitely softened getting another year older!!

We also got to enjoy going to Cowboys Stadium in Arlington for the Muscular Dystrophy Muscle Walk.  We enjoy supporting our good friends the Combs family each year at this great event. 

 

Here’s the boys enjoying seeing a NFL field at Cowboys Stadium.
