What a Weekend!

Our LONG weekend at the river was wonderful. I really love that place. We stay in the Frio River Cabins and the whole place is wonderfully beautiful. Six nice and secluded cabins. Trees everywhere! Beautiful. The river was up due to all the rain so floating the river was really fun. Last September when we went we walked and pulled our tubes through a lot of the river but this time very little walking and lots of floating.

I enjoyed watching JD float this year. He loved it and did it like a pro as did his sweet cousins, Nicky, Lexie and Lezlie. Those kiddos love the water which is really nice for us adults because we do too!

My digital camera was killed at our cook-off when the bad storm came through so I didn't get to take pics except when we were floating with my disposable water camera. Now I have to take it to get the pics developed so I'll post those when I get them (probably in a year or two - which is why I LOVE digital cameras). BUT, Steph has posted a few on her blog so check it out.

Well, Eric left on Sunday and finally made it to Phoenix yesterday. I think he is going to enjoy working there. He was telling me over the weekend about all the places he wants to visit while he is there.......Grand Canyon, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, etc. Here in Texas we have to drive long hours to go anywhere!!!! Fortunately he'll get to fly home every three weeks!

Maybe tonight I can finish unpacking everything!! Last night was dedicated to my sweet man. Matt's at his dad's this week and Shan went to spend the night there too :) so Tim and I were ALONE! We sat on the couch and did some good talking then watched our very favorite show 24. Next week is the two hour finale. GO JACK! What am I going to do with Monday's now?!?! I guess I could start working in my flower beds since they have been a little neglected!!!

Steph is fussing again because it has been over a week since a post. Well, I haven't had much to blog on about. I guess I can just tell you that we as a family (along with some good friends) are headed to the Frio River tomorrow for a long weekend! Looking VERY forward to that. We went last year and had a blast. This year we have a big group going and are renting out all 6 cabins.

Eric will be heading to our Phoenix office to work Sunday so it will be nice to have a long weekend with him before he makes the drive out there. It will be sad not having him work from Houston office this summer and getting to spend a lot of time with him. SO, we'll enjoy and treasure the three days we'll have with him this weekend.

Dustin has been working with Baker for almost a year now but has had a great opportunity in Beaumont so tomorrow is his last day. When we return from the river he'll be moving out and moving back with his mom in Saratoga. SO, again, it will be nice to spend this long weekend as a family before he isn't around as much!

Other than trying to get ready to head to the river..............LIFE IS GOOD. WE ARE BLESSED!!
