Mother's Day 2013

This year I decided to treat my mom and sister Mandy to a fun girls weekend. Stacey was out of town with Jason and Jax so she didn't get to join :(

So before our "all girls" weekend, the family met for hibachi, and I was also able to give the girls their gifts tonight. I got all of them cute overnight bags that have their initials embroidered in them.
















We spent the day at the Dallas arboretum and enjoyed a lunch in the garden.









































































For dinner, I took them to Avanti in Uptown. After dinner, we headed back to our hotel, The Magnolia, because we knew we had a big day the next day.
Here are a few pics my mom took of the hotel:















Sunday morning I took them to Iron Cactus for unlimited mimosas and breakfast!
After breakfast, and a Starbucks run, we were ready for the 2013 Swiss Avenue Historic District Mother's Day Home Tour. These homes are absolutely incredible inside and out. 

5125 Swiss Ave - $778,000 built in 1917
Here are a few of the homes that were featured on the tour:






















This is my favorite home. I love this style!







5002 Swiss Ave - $1,095,000 built in 1915

5822 Swiss Ave - $784,000 built in 1924

5901 Swiss Ave - $961,000 built in 1925
To all the Mother's out there...Happy Mother's Day!

Love you mom, Mandy and Stacey!

Happy Cinco de Mayo

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!

To start our Cinco de Mayo celebration, Chance and I went to the Denton Mud Bug, to eat crawfish and listen to live music.



After the Mud Bug, Chance and I hung out with some friends on Fry and played around in these clothes. Chance even wore this outfit to work!









































On Sunday, my mom and I went to see The Big Wedding. It was so cute and I give it 4 out of 4 stars! After the movie we went to Blue Mesa. We had to eat authentic Mexican food and drink Strawberry Balsamic Margaritas on Cinco de Mayo. After a little fiesta at Blue Mesa we went across the street to NorthPark for a little shopping.

Hope everyone had a safe and fun Cinco!

Chance is graduating!

I am so proud of you Chance! The past year and a half have been so incredible. You are an amazing partner, best friend, and student. You deserve this because I know how hard you worked for it.

Graduation is just around the corner for you and you are now finished with school. Once you finish your intern you will be walking across that stage collecting your diploma. At that moment you will be closing one door and opening another. Your future starts now!

The other night Chance, his mom and I went to Sigma Chi Senior Dinner at the Sigma Chi house. We had such a great time and the Sigma Chi president, Collin Mock, presented Chance with a beautiful bible with his name engraved on the front. I love you babe!
