Like Colbie says "I've been runnin' around"

May has been BUSY! I remember when Mom first bought our rooms for the cruise and it seemed like it was so far away! Now it is 3 DAYS away! So Pumped to the Max! And so ready for 10 days of relaxation with my family. I have been so busy lately that I usually forget what day it is.

I did remember to attend the Mesquite Rodeo when EYB was in town :) Love those guys and their crew. It was a pretty interesting evening too. I knew in my head it was supossed to rain but that was the last thing I thought about as I stood outside for the show, and also as I parked my car in a dirt field. No grass. Just dirt. Then came storms. Heavy rain. Hail. Thunder. Lightning. Folding chairs rolling across the stage. But the show went on! It was acoustic but awesome. And I got to see one of my dear friends Philip. Then I got stuck in the field...it was a mess. A very muddy mess. My tiny car had no chance. Luckily a kind boy with a very large truck pulled my car to the road. So grateful for him.

Mother's day weekend we ended up doing a VIP tour of Cowboy's Stadium. It was pretty awesome. You get to see Jerry Jones's "perch" where he sits to watch the games and then the locker rooms and press room. They even take your picture on the star. They tell you that you can spend as much as time you want, once the tour is over, on the field and you can throw the football or play around. They did not, however, tell you that they do not want you on the field goal posts...
Haha. Always causing trouble.

Here are a few others from that day:

Dad and I in Jerry's chair for the games.

Me taking questions from the press.

Nate in the area where the Cowboys run through to get to the field.

Lu and I on the star :)

And that is my father... he is special lol.

The following weekend I boarded a plane to San Antonio to spend a few days in Poth with my cousin Brittani, her neighbors and her State Trooper buddies. She has to go back to Afghanistan for the Army so of course there was a going away party! It was a great send off for her and I pray she comes back safely.

Here are some pictures from the party and that weekend:
Yep, Britt got a bounce house to keep the kids occupied... it really was for the adults to make fools of themselves inside!

We made Cake Pops! We even made CLR dice (such a fun game!)

The neighbor kids made these posters for her. Sooo adorable!

It was such a great weekend, that turned out to end on an opposite note. I got word as I was boarding my flight home that my grandma, Momo, went to the ER overnight and was now in ICU. She was not doing well. The past few days have been scary. The worst feeling I have ever felt in my 28.5 years of life. But today is better. She was moved out of ICU and Mom said she is doing much better! The Lord sure does answer prayers.
