Fun weekend!!!!

Friday night, 15 of Kayla's good friends went to Terilli's to help celebrate her birthday and I had a Celebrity keep Cam! Lauren Parajon, a girl I've gotten to know and become friends with was introduced to me via her blog about a year and a 1/2 ago or so. Lindsay Hodges, my friend Heather's sister-in-law, came across her blog and forwarded her story onto some of her friends to read and I've been hooked ever since. Its about her life...She was living in NYC at a very young age, met her soulmate, dated long-distance, and is now engaged to be married to him! She has a tremendous gift and that is writing. The gift of being able to express yourself through words is a quality I've always dreamed of having and knowing someone who WILL be famous in this arena is so fun and exciting to me. And she was IN MY HOUSE!!! ;) She's beautiful, smart, loving, and hilarious!!! After reading her blog for some time, I read that she was moving to Addison and very close to me. Her email is on her blog so i just emailed her one day back last February. My husband thought I was crazy! Ha! My sis was coming to stay the weekend with me, is just as fascinated by her as
I am, we were dying to meet her, so I just asked her to have a drink with and and she did! She went to OU and nannied/babysat while there as well as here in Dallas so when she offered to keep Cam for us sometime I took her up on it! I will certainly use her again and thoroughly enjoyed getting to visit with her. She loves Cam and Cam loved her. She will be back not only as my babysitter but as my friend. Thanks for helping us out Lauren!

The beautiful birthday girl!!! Love you friend

The girls!!



We had Gary and Pat Coleman over for dinner on Saturday night and Brian and I attempted to make chocolate eclair. He did the bottom part and it turned out great. I did the topping and weeell.... Epic fail! The recipe calls for 2 SQUARES of chocolate and me and my Betty Crocker skillz just didn't think that sounded right so I went with 2 BOXES. Epic fail. B and I made a quick trip to Babe's for some banana pudding to serve. Thanks for coming out, Lin. Better luck next time.

We dog sat Debra's dog, Tucker, on Saturday night and Cam has a new BFF



Gary practicing for his new bundle of grandkid joy coming this fall! Their son and daughter in law are expecting a little girl and they are elated.

She is about to start cruising. Slow down baby girl... You're not supposed to be doing that yet! Makes me sad. :(

Thanks for a fun night, as always, Gary and Pat. The ciabatta bread was OFF THE HOOK!

Sunday morning we met my sis, Justin, and the Arrington's for brunch at Smoke and it was so good seeing them! I hardly are my sis anymore she's so busy with school so it was wonderful hugging her neck. They were in Dallas for the Coldplay concert. Miss and love you lots sis!!!
Cam and her Aunt Melly

Brian and I took a little drive after brunch and drove over our new Margaret Hunt Hill bridge. That thing is massive and pretty impressive!!


Heather and Brad asked us to the Rangers game on Sunday and boy did Brad have the hook-up!!! His company has season tickets and every once in a while he gets lucky. We were thrilled they asked us.... We had a great time! Little toasty but we were in the shade thank goodness! So fun ya'll!!!
This is how close our parking spot was to the ballpark! I've been to many Rangers games and NEVER parked this close!

Our seats. They did not suck! ;)

You can't see him buy George W Is down on the 1st row there sitting next to Nolan. Pretty cool!!! He had 2 Secret Service men by him 24/7.

If u look closely, there is a little old lady in a pink T-shirt holding a drum. She played that thing like it was going out of style. She would get everyone clapping and it was just the cutest thing ever! I wanted to squeeze her. ;). She was probably 85!!!


Thanks again y'all. Good times had by all! And thanks, Deb, for keeping Cam. You are the best!!!


Have a good week everyone!
Cheers,
Lindley
