Rachel and I with Martellus Bennett at the Ticketstock Convention. He plays for the Cowboys :) We got his autograph and our pic taken (obviously). He was really nice. Ticketstock was a bit over whelming...its put on by a sport talk radio station and has tons of vendors for fans to come visit, including us, the Cowboys, Mavs, Stars, etc. Very busy day of giving out free stuff. haha
Marc Grow was in town for some business and we got to go out in style. He and his friend/coworker Dave rented a stretch towncar and we rode around Dallas and went dancin :) It was really nice to see him.
For Valentine's Day I went to Little Rock and we had a really great weekend. The picture below is on Vday. Alex took me rock/wall climbing and man is it a work out. It was really fun though and I made it to the top of several walls. yay me! Above is us at dinner and Ciao Baci. It was really great Italian food and amazing wine...from Washington! We always get WA wine whenever its available.
I've been going out with some friends to concerts here and there. This is my friend Faith and I at a Johnny Cooper concert. The next week we went to Eli Young Band (they're on the radio) and it was really fun. I've learned to country dance, two step and half step. I'll be really good by the end of my time here in Texas haha
Some more Warden people came to town. The Warden football coaches came to a convention right outside of Dallas and on their last day in town I got to hang out with them, walk them around Dallas and be the tour guide for a bit as well as go out to an amazing dinner and Texas de Brazil. They walk around with all different kinds of meat on swords and serve it to you. Really fun! It was great to see all of these guys, esp. Mr. Wiggy, Joseph and Nano :)
My roommate/coworker Rachel got a new job (a real one!!!) at University of Texas at Arlington and will be starting on March 16. She's really excited and I'm excited for her. We'll still be living together for the time being because of our lease but towards the summer she's gonna find a place closer to work (about a 45 min drive right now) and I'm gonna live by myself for the first time. EEEEK! Congrats Rach!
Spring sports are well underway. Tennis and softball are keeping us busy as well as the end of basketball season. This week is the start of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament. Should be interesting. Above is our mascot Scrappy at a tennis match and below is Kadie Platt ready to steal 3rd for our awesome softball team.
My bosses family (Paul, Jen, Kalyn and Lane) are like my second family down here. I spend lots of time with them. They recently got a new puppy, a little black lab and he is soooooo cute! Above is Zepellin and Lane while Zep is passed out. Adorable
Alex came to visit this last weekend and we had a good time. He's done in Little Rock now and has made his way to Clovis, New Mexico for his first "real" station. He's bought a house (a couple posts ago you can see where) and is really excited to start flying with his squadron. He stopped here in Denton on his way to Clovis to visit me for a couple days. We had fun with tennis matches, shopping, going to drinks and dinner with my friend's Jana and Brad and then dinner with next night at my friend's Jill and Joel's. Very busy and fun filled couple of day. I'll be heading to Clovis for a short spring break here in a couple weeks :)Well that's my busy life. Enjoy!
