brothers

These two little guys absolutely adore each other. Sam always greets Wade with a huge grin in the mornings and Wade always gives Sam a big hug and kiss before he goes to bed.

Wade wanted to help me this morning so I let him feed Sam a bottle, and this picture just made me happy.

remodel

When we bought our house a little over 2 years ago, the one thing I could not stand about it was the kitchen counters. If you remember, they were sage green formica...not very pretty. (I didn't even take a before picture because I don't really want to remember them). Well, they are gone and I have a lovely new kitchen in it's place. I absolutely love the way it turned out.

Now, where is your favorite place to shop for decor/accessories so I can add some color to my new fabulous room?

Reunion

We spent a few days down near San Antonio for the Broadbent family reunion. I was so busy enjoying myself, that I completely forgot to take pictures. Here are a few of my favorite pics (stolen from my sisters-in-law) from our trip.

We saw the Alamo. It will be remembered.

Sam enjoyed being held by everyone.

Wade enjoyed spraying everyone with the hose.

He also got to feed some goats.

And we all enjoyed spending some time in the pool.

Not pictured is all the time we enjoyed sitting around visiting and catching up with all our family we don't get to see often enough, but who we adore.

Playoff Basketball

Not covered on any of the cable channels or major networks were the playoff games played in Seguin, TX.

Phil and Mark took on Steve, H and Jeff (Pete played a little as well).

The other guys are up 2 games to 1. Stay tuned for when we bring the series back to...

my first race

I ran my first 5k (and first race since elementary school) this last weekend as part of the Broadbent family reunion...more pics of that to come later.

My goal was to complete it in 35 minutes, I made it in 32:08. Yeah, I know it's not super fast but I'm still pretty proud of myself. It was harder than I thought it would be, but my cute husband ran with me and kept cheering me on.

I do plan to keep on running, though by no means is a marathon in my future.

My little half-pint is half a year old today! My favorite thing about him right now, as our family will attest to, is he will readily grin at anyone who smiles at him.
