Sight Seeing

I love road trips. Short or long, I love them. I like to get in the car and go places I have never been. That is what Bo and I did on Saturday. We went back to Howard Payne's Homecoming. There was parade, a picnic, and the football game. We met up with Bo's parents just before the parade started. I loved meeting people that knew Bo and his family from way back when. After the parade, Bo showed me around campus. Then we went to the picnic, which Underwood's catered, and it was of course....amazing! After that we drove around town and I got to see the world's smallest block. It literally is one building and that is all. Pretty cool! I saw the church his dad worked in, the school his mom taught in, and the high school Bo and Kris attended. The best part was going to see the house they lived in. I have heard so many great stories about that house and the land they had. You can tell a lot of happy times were had there. On our way home that afternoon Bo showed me the first church he worked at in Goldthwaite. I am glad Bo took me back to his old stomping grounds! Someday I hope to get him out to Arizona, and show him all my favorite places.

Meet the Bridesmaids

For the first time since Bo and I got engaged, I was able to get together with my 4 bridesmaids. We met for lunch at Teriyaki Park Sushi, and then went to make jewelry at Got 2 Bead. I had something so specific in mind for what I wanted them to wear; I knew I would never find it, so we made them instead. The nekalces turned out beautiful! It was a great day filled with laughter and love.


In the back we have Charis Echterling, the Matron of Honor, and my oldest sister. On my right is Lyndee Tucker. I have known her for most of my life, and although she hates to be called it, she really is the other sister! To the left is my very best friend Jenna Lane. If you can't find me check with Jenna, I spend as much time with her as I do with Bo. Down in front is Candace, the Maid of Honor, and also my older sister. And, in case you wondering, the bride is the one in the middle!

There you have us! I look am looking forward to many more fun days ahead with my girls!
