Happy Birthday, Papa!

We celebrated Papa's birthday at the Walden Yacht Club! We enjoyed a wonderful dinner followed by a yummy birthday cake at Papa's house!

Rub a Dub Dub, Three Cousins in the Tub!

Meredith had so much fun spending a few days with her cousins! I couldn't resist this cute tub shot!

A HAPPY REUNION!

About a year and a half ago, Meredith and I fell in love with a homeless lab puppy that was roaming the neighborhood. Meredith named him "Swiss Cheese!" A friend of ours helped us find a home for our beloved "Swiss Cheese, " and now his name is "Pepper Jack." We were sooooooo excited that "Jack" aka "Swiss Cheese" and his mommy agreed to come visit us! What a wonderful reunion!

La Di Spa

OMG! For anyone who has not yet been to La Di Spa, this is a must! We are so excited to have found a mother/daughter spa right here in Austin! Meredith enjoyed a milkshake pedicure with sparkly pink hearts in the nailpolish & a manicure complete with sparkly blue polish! Mommy had one of the BEST pedicures that she has ever had and a mini mani! We can't wait to go back!

Jingle Bellas

Meredith thought that it would be funny to try her antlers on Bella!

'Twas The Night Before Christmas

It has become tradition for us to spend Christmas Eve at Grandma's house. After eating a yummy fried shrimp dinner, Santa makes his annual "surprise" appearance! Santa gives out gifts and reads The Night Before Christmas to Meredith.
