Finally...........A New Post!!!










Howdy! I feel the need to re-introduce myself considering my abscence. If anyone still checks this blog....I'm back!!!!!

As you might have guessed, my new position with GVEC has kept me occupied. It has been loads of fun so far. I feel as though I have already learned a wealth of things about the Marketing World, but I know there is still so much out there. Busy at it is, I am thankful to be in a position I love. Jared and I have been really blessed. Just today I got to interview the sweetest man and hear about his life story, there is almost nothing I enjoy more.
So now that you know why this post is so delayed, let's play catch up........life lately through a very small key hole..................
That goofey little picture of my adorable husband is a result of our Employee Appreciation night. I was pretty excited about taking home that cactus, and Jared was too, or maybe he was just mocking me :)
We took a quick trip to Houston over Valentine's day. Amanda and I went and spent half a day at the spa, a nice little gift to ourselves. Then we met up with our cousins, John and Holly, for dinner. On the way home, J and I went and met sweet little Liz, our friend's new baby girl. Doesn't she have the sweetest smile? We are actually headed there tomorrow to spend the weekend with them. I love weekends spending quality time and enjoying the company of good friends. Much to look forward to!
Jenny came down with Jordyn a few weeks ago and we took Cailyn and Jordyn to the rodeo grounds. They seemed to have fun riding the few rides they weren't too scared to go on :)
And then last Sunday is where my BIG news comes in. Jared successfully convinced me we should take a day trip to Victoria to visit his parents and grandparents as our schedule is full for the next several weekends. How strange is that! :) Anyway, I agreed to go, even though I was pretty exhausted looking ahead at the next busy week and the time change. Well, the trip was more than worth it. Not only did we get to visit with the family, but his Paw-Paw had a pretty big surprise in store for me, the last picture shown.....a Remington Model 700 .270 Winchester, complete with a Leupold scope. WOW! You can bet that I am still trying to figure out a proper Thank You! Totally unexpected! I told Jared it is time to go to the shooting range!!! :)
Well, there you have it friends. I miss you all and promise to try and update more frequently. J and I agree that we aren't so young anymore...10:00 p.m. has become "past bedtime."
Good night!!!
