Mother's Day

We spent Mother's Day in Lubbock and we had a great day just the 3 of us. We enjoyed our free continental breakfast at the Embassy Suites then we enjoyed a day out and about....including lunch at Jason's Deli, shopping, & take-out from Bigham's BBQ for dinner. My sweet hubby & precious Mallory treated me like a queen. I was showered with sweet cards and some cash to shop, get a pedi/mani or do whatever I would like! I'm so blessed to be a Mommy to my sweet Mallory and wife to my awesome husband:)

Jeff & Barri

As I mentioned earlier we went to Lubbock for a wedding on the weekend of Mother's Day. Our dear friend Jeff got married to his beautiful bride, Barri on May 10th. It was a beautiful wedding. Kevin was asked to be a groomsman and was honored to do so. Jeff is one of our favorite people and we are so happy for him & Barri. Barri is wonderful and we can't wait to get to know her better. We were also able to see Scott along with some other old friends. It was great to catch up and visit!

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Jeff Whitaker!

New Backyard!

We recently got our backyard landscaped and we absolutely love it! We had just rocks (which is very common for El Paso) in the backyard before and now we have grass. Mallory loves to be outside and now with grass, I can let her have more freedom than with the rocks. We also extended out the porch and bought a new grill. We are really enjoying it out there and look forward to a summer of many cook outs!

Grandma & Grandpa G

On May 9th we set out for Lubbock, Texas for our friend, Jeff's wedding. On the way we stopped in Hobbs, NM to visit Grandma & Grandpa G aka Kevin's parents. We weren't able to stay long but we had a nice visit and Mallory enjoyed seeing them. And of course, she enjoyed rearranging all Grandma's picture frames.

Family Pictures!

While my mom was here, I had her take some pictures of the me, Kevin, & Mallory. We rarely get a picture of the 3 of us (if we do it is with the timer and it is usually not that great) so I figured while I had mom here, I would take advantage of it. So here are some random family pictures of the 3 of us.

First Haircut!

On Friday, April 25th, my mom & I took Mallory to get her first haircut. I had a mine done first and then Mallory sat in my lap to get her hair trimmed. Gina did a great job and literally just took off a little on her bangs and on the back. I was sure that Mallory would flip out but she did a wonderful job. She got a little upset at the very end but pulled through like a champ! Here are some pictures from our day at the salon!

Oma comes to visit!

My mom aka Oma came to visit us for 2 weeks. Wow, did we have a great time as usual. Mallory adores Oma and loves playing with her. Of course, my mom is head over heals for her and treasures every second with Mallory. While she was here we enjoyed playing, reading, going to the park, and of course shopping. Mallory has a whole new wardrobe and lots of new toys!

Thanks, Oma for coming to seeing us! We had a great time!
