On to New Mexico!

Alex is moving on to the next venture in his career and it is taking him to New Mexico. He went there last week to check it out and find a place to live. He bought a house in a new development where a few other pilots have bought houses. The house isn't built yet but the pile of dirt is his! The blue prints look great and the area is really nice. I'm excited to go see it over Spring Break in March, it might be almost done by then :)

Taking over :)

He's really excited to own his own place and I'm excited for him (plus I get to decorated it hehe :))

Home for the Holidays - Part 4

For New Years we went to Tri Cities and spent it with a bunch of our friends at Neilan and Katie's place. It was great to see Neilan and Katie and fun to spend time with everyone. Then we went over to the west side to Federal Way, where Alex's family lives and spent some time with them before we both had to had back south.

My trip home was a success! It was great to see my family and friends and spend time with the people I love the most. Can't wait to go home in April for Neilan and Katie's wedding :)

Christmas Time in Texas

I LOVE the holidays! This year I'm not working at the Wild Ivy in the land of Christmas so it makes me even more excited because I haven't been subject to the same Christmas music for a month and a half already haha! I decorated my apt a little bit for Christmas but I'm so ready to go home and spend the holidays with my family and friends (3 more days! yay!) Here are a couple holiday events I've enjoyed in Texas this year.

Thanksgiving Cowboys Style

Alex got Cowboy tickets for my birthday because they were playing the Seahawks here in Dallas. It was a pretty fun and different way to spend Thanksgiving (we ate Thanksgiving on Apple Cup).
