Evening Reflections on my day

Ah! Parker is in bed, I have a glass of sparkling water with lemon that I am drinking out of a wine glass, my space heater is on and I am relaxed...reflecting on the past few days that I have been blessed to live with my husband whom I adore and my little baby man whom I adore.

This past weekend we went to Dallas to see some friends from college. We had a blast. Here is a pic of the crew: From left to right: Koy, Justin, Blake, Jon, Lindsey, Bethany, Cathy, Anna, then James is across.
Traveling with Parker was a task in itself, but the time we spent with our friends was well worth the work and lack of sleep over the weekend! It amazes me how Parker can be SO MUCH WORK and NOT SLEEP when we are staying somewhere else, and then when we get home he is back to his normal low maintenance sleep through the night, self! If someone can give me the key to understanding that- I would give them the key to my heart! :)

We got to go to the Fort Worth Zoo which apparently is one of the top zoo's in the country! I must say- compared to the Houston Zoo it was pretty fabulous!! Here are some pics from that adventure:This waterfall was still frozen from the REALLY cold days they have had!

We also went and visited Koy's new gym that he opened. It's a Crossfit Gym. James and I got a personal training session with Koy and I am still sore 2 days later! Even Parker got a workout!

This is Noah, Justin & Bethany's 3.5 year old.

Other highlights from the trip were Noah telling us about the "baby in mommy's belly"...Justin & Bethany are having their SECOND baby!!! We are SOOO excited about that news! We also enjoyed a night out with the whole gang where we walked to a nice restaurant in Dallas and enjoyed a dinner all 9 of us with the kids back at Justin & Bethany's house with a babysitter!

Whew! What a weekend! Good friends and good times!
