DIRTY THIRTY

Happy Birthday to my best friend - and MOH - CHRISTY!

She just turned the big 3-0 on Friday and to help celebrate, Megs and I loaded in the car and headed north to El Reno, Oklahoma for some serious girl time and celebration. I'm a little bummed though bc we were so excited to see each other that we forgot to take pictures!! We did manage to get one pic of the three of us...well after dinner when we got home. We convinced Steven to take it on our way out to the back patio for girl talk and vino. Steven was also the man of the hour this morning when he made a special trip to Braum's to pick up our greasy, tasty breakfast! Yum scrum. After we filled our tummies, Megs and I had to say our goodbyes and head home. She had to get ready to leave for a week long work trip and I had to focus on getting mi casa up to par since all kinds of parentals are headed to us this weekend!

I will admit that I went a little wild this morning photographing Christy's little man, Jackson! The soon-to-be 1-year old has grown SO much since the last time I saw him!! He eats cereal and bananas now and loves to "work" on anything around the house. I've only posted a few here but believe you me, there's a whole slew of photos from Jack's breakfast this morning. Here are some cuties...

We had SUCH a great time with Ms. Christy and can't wait to see the VonTungeln fam again on Friday when they come to Dallas for our first shower! WHOOHOO! Can't wait. The bridesmaids are hosting a couples shower on Saturday and I'm getting so excited to see all of our special guests like my parents, Patrick's Dad, Christy and Steven and SHERI D AND JUSTIN from Boise!! It really means the world to Patrick and me that they are all traveling such a great distance to help celebrate with us. My cup runneth over.
