Man was it a busy weekend! FUN, but busy. So much to blog about. I will start at the beginning and see how far I can get! Luckily I took some pictures.
First things first. Aunt Debbie finally was able to meet Archer. They bonded over their love of UT and each other.
Aunt Debbie, Uncle Jack, Abigail and Emilie all came to town to see Archer's dedication...oh yeah and A UT FOOTBALL GAME. Hook 'em!!! Way to go horns!
Jack and Debbie went to the game while the girls stayed at the house with Us, Memaw & Dodaddy. There were lots of games of "I'm gonna get you!" with Abby and Christian. There were lots of movies. 101 Dalmatians, Little Mermaid...
Everyone was dressed in their finest burnt orange to cheer on Texas. I'm sure that is why they won!
When Christian work up Sunday morning he was chanting " Go Texas!". He grab some marachas and started shaking them saying "Go Texas!"..then gave one to Chris and said "Shake it Daddy! Go Texas, Daddy! Where's Texas Daddy?!" Uncle Jack gave all the kids Longhorn stickers to wear too. They loved them.
Chris and I left the kids with Memaw and Dodaddy and headed off to Cory and Jordan's wedding. It was at this amazing place on the river.
It was beautiful ceremony right on the river. We ran into some of Chris' friends from Kingwood...Chris and Amber, Darrin and Denise. We all had a great time visiting. Cory and Jordan had a great band called the Gourds play their wedding. And to quote Cory (the groom) the reception was "BAD A$$". We all had a great time. We both have sore feet from tapping out feet to the music and dancing..yes we even danced....and if you know Chris well...you know he really must have liked the band.
It was a long night for us, but so worth being able to hang out with old friends for Chris and new friends for me!
Sunday was just as busy as Saturday. We had Archer and Lily's dedication at church, then everyone came over for a BBQ lunch.
It was a special day for both our families. Presenting out littlest ones to God. Pastor Wyles always gives the best speeches at this time. I looked at him while was talking about what a special gift we have been given as parents and what an important job we have. As I held my youngest son and looked at my oldest, I know this will be my most important job ever! This was a special day for Grama Nita too. Lily is her 11th great-grand child and Archer makes an even dozen.
After lunch we were lucky that everyone at our house had a chance to take a nice nap. Christian was the only one that protested on taking a nap, but his was much needed too.
Well that is our weekend wrap up. Now off to get ready for an equally busy Halloween week. And another wedding this weekend....
