Lilypie First Birthday tickers

Our newest addition: Parker

Friday, October 30, 2009
We got a puppy!!! Ross wanted to surprise me for Christmas with a dog and we got him a little early! Parker is a Coton De Tulear and all boy! We drove to Trenton, Texas to get him Friday Oct 30 and he is 8 weeks old and full of personality!
Parker's first adventure to Target! We had to get pet supplies right after we got
him so we snuck him inside my Coach bag! He was a little unsure at first
but once we were going along he got very relaxed!

Enjoying his new home!
Parker and I before we go on a short walk....for right now he just sits in the grass and looks up at me wondering what the heck are we doing..then walks to my feet and looks up...I am pretty sure he is done with the outdoor event at that point! :)
Ross and Parker hanging out on the couch! Parker slept on Ross as soon as we got home!

So there have been a few fun events so far in October! Britt celebrated her 25th Birthday and we ran Race for the Cure for Cathy!! Yea!! The weather is changing and the sun is shining!!
Britt, Allison, and I in downtown McKinney enjoying a girls night out!


Britt and I all dolled up for her big birthday!! love you!!


Early Saturday morning....Cathy,Richard,Carly and I traveled to Northpark Mall to walk in the Race for the Cure! It was early and a little bit chilly but overall a gorgeous day! It was amazing seeing the huge turnout for Race for the Cure and seeing all the survivors at the race!
I was really excited to be with Cathy at the race because not only is she an amazing woman she is also a breast cancer survivor! She has been cancer free for 1 year and continues strong! It was a wonderful experience being with her on race day! love you!

There were over 30,000 people at the race Oct 17,2009!
Carla, Cathy and I before the race!
We all made in celebration bibs in pink for the back of our shirts for race day...
mine said In celebration of Cathy T. We love you, Carla's said Cathy T., and Richard's said My Wife!! We were all so excited to wear them in celebration of Cathy!!
After the race we snagged all the freebies and water and bananas we could find...right along with free massages by massage envy!! loved it!
Here are my new running laces...
they have NB in pink with 20 which stands for the
fact that New Balance has been supporting Breast Cancer research for 20 years!

Two little rays of sunshine in Florida!

Wednesday, October 7, 2009
Vacation continued....so as soon as we landed from California I boarded another plane for Florida to see KC, Kinley, and Chance! We had a great time playing in the pool, going to gatorland, shopping, walking, seeing shamu and the chik fil a cow, and so much more! It was great to spend time with KC and the twins in Florida since the last time we all got to hang out was in April!!
Wow time goes by so fast! Here are a few of my favorite pics from my vacation in Florida!


Everyone with Shamu in downtown Orlando at a walk for preemie babies


Kinley showing me her scary face before bedtime! They both have so much energy and talk non stop either to you, to eachother, to baby, or possibly themselves! They are growing up so fast!
ok so this was really cute...one day after swimming we need to go run a few errands and I didn't have any more clean shorts or shirts so kc dressed me and as you can tell by the photo above she dressed both kinley and i the same...pink top blue shorts! kinley was hooked to me since we were dressed the same that day as we ventured to Sam's for grocery items!

Riding the train at gatorland! we rode it twice of course!

looking at one of the biggest gators in the park!
the little florida family
kc and i got a girls night out to a local restaurant were they had a live band!
swimming!!
and of course more fall decor...ross bought more candy corn to fill up my candy jar so that it too will be festive in our home! neither one of us really likes candy corn so it is truly for decorations purposes only! happy fall!
