"Never kick a fresh cow patty on a hot day"

I have been trying to upload a video of Georgia and Chris playing for a few days now but it doesn't seem to want to work... i'll keep trying til I can get it to work.

In other news its been two years that Chris and I had officially been together! Is it weird that it seems like it has been much longer? Well we haven't really gotten to visit many places since we got to Texas so this weekend we are taking a trip down to San Antonio. The only bad thing is that we have to board Georgia. Katie calls me a helicopter mom cause I don't like to leave her alone. Well I guess this will probably be the first of a few kennel visits in her lifetime. So we have been looking for hotels on the Riverwalk near the Alamo. We found an awesome one that was close to both, and also had a rooftop swimming pool ( Hyatt Regency)! The prices were too high so we tried "priceline negotiator" and ended up with the same hotel minus about $75!!! Good deal! So excited for this trip!

Then I will have a weekend here in San Angelo before Georgia and I make the drive back to Tucson for Emma's First Birthday followed by the next weekend being Katie and Chris's Wedding! Chris's parents are kind enough to watch Georgia while the craziness of the wedding weekend is taking place which makes my heart less heavy. At least while she stays with them i know she will be loved and cared for and they will get to see their "grand baby err... grand puppy!"

I am soooo excited!

Here are some more pictures from the river I took the other day. I thought this was really clever cause they have dedication bricks on the bridge, but missed in they have cute quotes... It makes people actually look to though bricks and names.

this is one of my favorites...

Kolaches...

So everyone that I meant has no idea how to spell my future last name... then I explain "it's polish" :) well knowing that Chris loves certain kinds of food that I have never been introduced to...

The other day we were driving downtown ad he mentioned that he drove by a new bakery that sold kolaches (which i had no idea what that was...)

So after going back down to the river trying to find the butterflies I found the bakery. Went inside and they had the Czech version of a "Kolache." I was told they normally are a pastry that has fruit on the inside and breaded on the outside. The ones sold here actually had a sausage on the inside. Based merrily on that fact that I wanted to surprise Chris I bought him one to try... I wish I would have taken a picture of it before he ate it...

Sunday Picnic

Chris and i decided that we wanted to grab some sandwiches from the store and go on a "picnic" by the river. We wanted to take Georgia along so I wanted in the car with her while Chris got our meal.

She still isn't all that used to being in the car...

This was something we stumbled upon... I guess this is the stopping point for butterflies migrating down to Mexico. There were hundreds of them just huddled in trees. They were kind of hard to see when they weren't flapping their wings. This picture is blurry but you can see their color.

This picture is when they weren't moving as much. I want to go back down tomorrow with my good Canon and see if I can get some better images.

This here tied up to the nearest tree to our picnic table while we ate.

Finally she figured she would be there awhile and decided to sit pretty

We walked down a little closer to the water... Georgia didn't like it much.

Self timers

The dam

Another self portrait... Georgia isn't very good at looking at the camera.

A must see

Chris's brother Brian posted this on his facebook. I was very moved by it and wanted to share it again. I sent few of you messages to watch it, but honestly, I think everyone should watch it.

People say a woman should have the right to choose, but imagine how it would feel to survive... knowing that you were a "mistake" to let live. It totally put things in perspective and how I am so sure the Lord is real.

P90X!

Chris and I decided to start up P90X. i have done about a month of this workout before and its pretty intense. So last night was our day 1 of becoming fit...

and boy... today i am feeling it!

Gotta look fit in the wedding dress! 6 months to go. 30 days til Katie's wedding! How exciting!

Not staged at all!!!

I haven't seen them do this on their own before...

A top view so you can see them are actually cuddling. Georgia must miss having puppy friends!

A close up as well. You can see how much bigger she has gotten.

Haven't been feeling well lately. Chris has been sick and now either I am sick or having horrible allergies. It has been raining a ton so that might be it. Because of the rain, it is making Texas seem more and more like Tucson... when it rains here, all the roads flood! So bad that it was almost impossible to get home from lunch!

We went to a gun fair yesterday a the Colosseum aka the Fair Grounds. Pretty interesting. I think we saw the stereotypical "texan" there. I'm glad we went. I think it really made Chris excited about trying to go shooting out here.

After that we came home to try our second attempt at cooking tilapia. Turned out much better than our first!

Besides that not much is going on here.
