at least we aren't the marlins

This weekend was all sorts of fabulous. Mainly because we woke up on Friday with the news that we were moving to Houston. And so I did a happy dance all weekend long. And got home to this text from my sister. (I probably annoy you all with how much I talk about her. She just needs to get her own blog. When she becomes a stay at home mom I will make her.)

Reid gives the sweetest kisses.



After we got the good news (oh and thanks to you all for the congrats and good wishes! we are so excited) we decided we needed to celebrate.

We met my friend Haylie and her boytoy (that sounds more fun than boyfriend) at BJs. We hadn't been in a while and it's always fun to get a pizookie!
Above:
1. Mac and cheese. At Jus Mac. Lifechanging, people. Go to the heights and get some, like yesterday.
2. Started my Chi-O t-shirt quilt! It's taking way longer than I thought but I am so excited :)
3. Hands down the BEST skinny-rita I have ever had in my entire life. Who knew? At BJs! Seriously - I could have had 10. A would have loved that, tequila makes me insane. Ha.
4. Said pizookie. Oreo. GIMMIE.

On Saturday we drove around Houston to see where we wanted to buy. As soon as we drove out to the burbs we knocked that off the list. We will for sure move out there once we have kids, but it's just too far right now. So inside the loop we will go! Wish us luck through this process, I hear it's no fun. When we finished that, we decided to be super aunt and uncle and make super bubbles with Reid - the kid is obsessed. Unfortunately they didn't work out...but Reid still had a BLAST. We got back from the park and he smelled so fresh and clean from all the soap. next time we will achieve greatness! I promise.

And then it was time for the much anticipated blate! But it is no lobger a blate, it's just a fun time out with a great friend :) Right, Ashley?

We may have left the game early while we were down 19-6...but we had TOO MUCH FUN.

1. Roof open. The perfect weather!
2. We were on the big screen and didn't realize because we were so caught up in conversation! It was really depressing. Next time we will document this!!
3. Home run train! Odd that we got to see this twice for such a crappy game.
4. Orbit! But I miss the rabit.
5. No, YOU ate that foot long hot dog...
6. The MOST awkward proposal I have ever seen in my entire life. He put the ring on the wrong hand...that poor girl.
7. Passed out pat! He sat there for the entire game like that. And the little kid behind him kept trying to wake him up.
8. I lied when I said the whole game. He woke up! ALSO - it was nighttime, AKA no sunglasses needed you idiot.
9. I don't like the clear one so I am showing you the blurry one. :) We had SO much fun and I am so happy that I will be super close to her now. Yay Houston!!

Sunday we had lunch at my parent's house for my dad's birthday and my sister and brother's birthday. (twins!) Reid had to blow out everyone's cupcakes himself. And then light my dad's five more times and blow it out again. And then he had a mini-meltdown because he's approaching two and that's what they do at that age. Good thing he's adorable! And ADD. He can be crying but if you ask him what sound a rooster makes he will laugh and say "cockadooooo!" Oh how I love that kid!

Now I'm going back online to continue my house search. I might be a TAD obsessed.

  16. You are making me so jealous that I'm missing baseball season!! I want nothing more than to go to a game, eat that giant hot dog, and drink tons of beer, but I'm studying abroad in New Zealand at the moment, and I don't think baseball is a thing here! I will just have to go to twice as many once I come home.
