Suck it up Princess, this is Boot Camp!

I recently started going to a summer boot camp and WOW! It is tough! I have been doing Zumba for about 8 months now and I love it! My Zumba instructor Candice is awesome! She used to be Miss Texas---so she is motivation for me! You should see her...2 kids later and she looks AMAZING! I'm jealous! Anyways she started a boot camp that is for 4 weeks, twice a week. Let me just say that for the first time in my life I can say that I drug a tire up and down a field! I don't think I have ever worked out like this...at least not in years! Here are some pics!

Mom's Wedding

I've had a very busy week! I had to drive to Waco every day last week for GT training that lasted Mon-Fri from 9-4. It was exhausting driving an hour there and an hour back every day! Then my brother and his girlfriend came to stay with us on Friday night so I had been so stressed making sure the house was clean and they would have everything they needed!

Yesterday was my mom's wedding. I am so happy for her!! She hasn't had a lot of luck with men! But I think she found a keeper! Of course there is always a catch and his happens to be that he is 48 with a 3 year old! Yep! Crazy and he has full custody! So I now have a 3 year old step brother! Anyways their wedding was so pretty and intimate and again I cannot say how happy I am for them!!

Here are a few pictures...

Catching Up!

Where have we been the past month or more? Well...let me tell ya! The month of May was so busy for us and I wish I could find the camera so I could have got some pictures! I will do my best to post some visuals to go with this post so it isn't too boring.

My birthday was at the beginning of May so a group of us went out to dinner at Buzzard Billy's--YUM! And then we went to see Rodney Carrington. Let me tell you about this guy! Well....Rodney Carrington does stand up comedy and is known for being completely vulgar and gross!!! I was expecting way worse than what it was! He was soooo funny!!! He told us that as his kids are beginning to get older he is beginning to clean it up. His jokes were all jabs at being married, and then he told us all about his family, he told us about a recent trip to the zoo with his son's class, and he told us how he feels going to church with his reputation, etc...sooo funny! It was great! We definitely plan on seeing him again!




Below is a little clip of Rodney Carrington in Dallas...I'm reminding you it's for Mature Audiences Only. Do not play this with kids around.

And on my birthday May 9th, Cody found the time to finally get Lasik Eye Surgery. I so wish I had a picture of him wearing the goggles they gave him! It was so funny! He joked that he was a Professional Raquetball Player. Sooo funny! But he would never let me snap a picture! He is recovering quickly and was back to work the very next day and back on the lake the very next week, where he won a Working Man's tourney.


The following weekend my neighbor/good friend Jessica graduated from Tarleton. Congrats to her! She has worked her booty off since I've known her. She works full time at the bank in town, raises 2 kids and was taking a full load at Tarleton and going through the I Teach Texas program to become teacher certified! Can you say WOW!!!?? So we all went to Stephenville to watch her graduate. We enjoyed some great food at Bull Nettle and then watched her walk across the stage! Now she can take a breather and finish up I Teach Texas! She is hoping to find a job teaching around here for the upcoming school year---so PRAY for her...we all know teachers are struggling to find and keep jobs right now!!!

Aren't they a cute little family!! Wish Dudley would grin once in a while! Hahaha!


Next....Memorial Day weekend! We went to eat at Pappadeaux and see the Rangers play the Royals. AWESOME game! I wish we could see the Rangers once a week! We kicked booty and hit home run after home run! We won! That Sunday we went out for some time on the lake. Thank goodness we have a boat now! We went out with our neighbors and went tubing and cooked out a few days! It was fun! I don't know how we made it through last summer living a mile from the boat ramp and boat-less!!! It was horrible!


Please excuse this horrible picture! I was a Sweaty Betty! We had been sitting in the 100 degree heat for a few hours!!!

And NOW---School's Out for Summer!! Woohoo!!!! Our last day of school was June 3rd. I got to start off the summer break with Strep Throat! Ugh! I haven't been sick one time this year and then the last day of school it hits me! Boo! It was horrible! All of the kinder teachers went out for margaritas and to see Hangover 2 (don't pass judgement!! : ) ) and I missed it all to be stuck at home in bed while they celebrated summer time! When I got to feeling better Cody took me to eat at Caddo Street Grill and to see Hangover 2....I was so disappointed. Don't waste the money. Wait for it to come out on PPV or rental.


And yesterday I went to my high school best friend, Stacey's,  for her little girl Kinzey's 4th birthday party. Bless her heart...I showed up at Stacey's a little over and hour early and she answers the door in tears freaking out because nothing is ready! So I jumped in and helped out! Stacey is an RN and had got home at 7 am, took a little nap and got up to get everything ready and nothing was working out for her! It came together great and she finally got to relax a little!!

That's it for now! I think I covered everything! Now that I am off for the summer...maybe I can stay on top of our blog more often.
