So excited!!!

Since I was little I've always wanted my dad to take me to a NASCAR race and he finally is! YAY! My dad happens to have a work conference in Dallas the week after the Dickies 500 here at the Texas Motor Speedway so he's coming early and we're gonna go to all 3 races of the weekend and have a blast. I'm so stoked I can hardly stand it and I'm glad I get to see my daddy right before my birthday :)

Rest in Peace Grandpa Zeiler

My friend CJ's grandpa passed away this week. He was a very special man to me and he will be missed by all that knew him. He's in a better place now, with Grandma and Cousin Adam, and away from pain. Rest in peace and God Bless Grandpa. Love you!

4th of July

Alex came to visit in Denton for a week and we spent the 4th in Dallas with his friend Tim, Tim's friend and Tim's Mom. Alex had to head back to Corpus for the week but we met up the next Friday in Austin. I've been begging to go there ever since Alex moved to Texas 2 years ago and I finally got to go! It was really fun :)

Waiting for the fireworks
A smooch before going out ;)
This is Austin's city motto...they do a really good job of keeping true to their motto
Having lunch at Shady Grove. It's a really cool spot we saw on a Rachel Ray show. The dining is all outside and they have great burgers
We walked into a shop on 6th street and Alex really wanted this shirt...I said no ;)
