Baxter's Pinapple



Tonight Bradley and I were throwing away a pinapple that we bought and never ended up eating. But, when Bradley went to throw it in the compost pile, Baxter thought it was a toy. His other favorite toy is an empty plastic milk jug. He's such a fun dog!

Happy Birthday Ember!


For my birthday this year, Bradley took me to Nacogdoches, which is where I went to school. It was a blast showing Bradley where I lived and took classes. We stayed at a quaint little cabin about 15 minutes from campus. It was only about 300 square feet, but it was the perfect getaway from the busy city life. In the mornings we cooked breakfast and sat in the rocking chairs on the front porch.


This is the view from the front porch. The cabin was on 46 acres of land. To the left of us was a small creek. In the evening we sat out on the porch and listened to all the critters that lived by the creek. Saturday night we went down the road to an interpretive trail that is maintained by the university. It's an amazing place in the middle of the woods that you can walk around and enjoy nature. The only problem was that 2 minutes into our walk I spotted a 6 foot long black snake crossing the path. That did it! I was done. Sorry Bradley!


On Saturday we spent the day walking on campus. This is a statue of Stephen F. Austin in the center of campus. I spent a lot of time here hanging out with friends in between classes. I just loved being on campus again. I had a wonderful time taking a trip down memory lane. Thanks for the great getaway Bradley!

Sleeping Beauty


A few weeks ago we babysat our nephews, Charlie and Jake. One minute we were watching Monsters, Inc...the next, we looked over, and Charlie was completely zonked out. Aren't they so precious?
