It's been a while since I've updated this thing, but not because we've been idle. During the week, Mitch stays busy with his job (oh! I haven't told you! He's a Landman--does land and mineral rights research for oil and gas companies), and I stay busy looking for jobs and being frustrated with my lack of luck. Since being back down in Bryan, we've been doing something every weekend. I'm mad at myself for not having pictures from all of our recent events, but I suppose I have enough to fill up a page for now.
We went to the Great East Texas Hot Air Balloon Race.
We floated the Guatelupe River with Josh (friend from high school) and Bugsy.
We enjoyed Dad's company on his trip down here.
We joined Becca (a good friend from college) and friends in Austin to celebrate her 25th birthday.
We went wine tasting with Becky (Mitch's mom) at Messina Hof.
We joined Andrew (a good friend from college) and friends in Dallas to celebrate his 27th birthday after which we stayed with Dillon and Alex (friends from college, Mitch's friends from high school) and got to hear some of his new and awesome songs.
We took Jax (Mitch's nephew) to the park then played in the water with him back at our house.
We canoed all day on Caddo Lake in East Texas. I didn't take my camera out on the lake because I was nervous about the possibility of dumping the canoe, but I got this picture from this website so you can see how beautiful this place is. It's the only natural lake in Texas, and the Cypress trees are unbelievable.
We've been on the go since being back, but it's been wonderful to see good friends and cool places. I missed my friends and family so much while I was away from Texas, and now that I'm back for a bit, I'm going to enjoy them as much as possible.
