lol, it is the 1st Thanksgiving I don't have to worry about what to wear, I am loving it! Hope everyone had a great day the work week is almost over and then its great food, family time and relaxation! Love Ces.
I am finally back in the big ATX and I am so HAPPY, I really missed home! When I got to the front door I found a sweet note from Adolfo and Tay, they were up to no good as usual, it was so nice just being able to come home and relax in my own house and my own bed.....Thanks for the note guys, lol....
This weekend Adolfo got the chance to go hunting on one of our family friend's property, so that meant down time for me at home. He called and killed an 8 point, so he had a good weekend! All I did this weekend was relax! Tonight as I sit here watching the AMAs with Tay I am at peace because my laundry is done, my house is cleaned and my close are ready for work tomorrow, it is a short week and I can't be more ecstatic. Tay and I are going to the Hex Rally tomorrow and I can't wait to get fired up for the big game this week, it is our year, Hook 'em Horns!
So since my camera is working at this moment, I thought I might post some of the beautiful, sweet gifts I got for my 26th Bday! I love them all.....
Tay got me this cute angel, she said it is so I can always be reminded of her, lol, sure Tay....
Adolfo got me a new coat just in time for the beautiful weather....
Well, I hope everyone had just as an amazing weekend as I did! See yall tomorrow! Good night and sweet dreams, love Ces.
A note from Tay, Part 2
I don't have anything to say besides this: "Fishy, WHY are you sleeping?"
Lots of things have happened in the time that has passed since the last blog. For starters, my camera is acting up, and we don't know what is wrong. It might be awhile till it is fixed so there might be a lack of photos for awhile. I am still at a client's in Kerrville until Thanksgiving, it is nice getting to get away for awhile, but I do miss my home. I miss spending time next to Adolfo, just being on the phone doesn't cut it anymore. I miss my bed, yeah the one here is fluffy and nice but it is not mine. These past few weeks and weekends I have put in alot of work hours and that means I am sacrificing personal and family time, so I am ready to get things done so I don't feel like I am neglecting all the things I love, its hard but it has to get done. Last night Adolfo was setting the timer for his morning coffee and it made me miss the mornings I wake up to the foldger aroma in the air. I just miss home.
Well this past week Adolfo and I turned 26, It felt so weird! It was one of those moments where you sit back and think, wow the next 5 years are going to be some of the biggest years in our lives! We have alot of goals and now is the time. Our family celebrated us this past weekend on Friday and Saturday.
I got to my parent's house on Friday night, and Adolfo met us for dinner. I was showered with lovely gifts and sweet cards, cards are my favorite. If you know me you know there is nothing better than receiving a sweet heart felt card, remember I am the girl who can stroll Hallmark for hours!
So Friday after my birthday Dinner with the Family, we all decided to help Miss Heather complete some of her Christmas Joy shopping. We had so much fun, Thank you Heather for letting us be a part of such a special project. My mom and I got to shop for a little girl and boy, it was so fun, but stressful because you know what you like, but that does not mean that is what they like. You should have seen all of us matching outfits and playing with toys, we had such a great time. It reminds me of a quote I read for the Holiday season, and it these current times we need to be reminded what this Holiday season is about, "In the gift of giving we receive", yeah its as simple as that. We are blessed and very fortunate and I believe it is our duty to help others not as fortunate.
Saturday Morning was Suzy Q's 1 year anniversary. If you don't know this is one of my favorite boutiques in JC. It is the place Adolfo and I registered for our wedding, and I got a bunch of my Thank you gifts, this place is amazing, I feel like if I had my own store this is exactly what it would be like! So anyways my Mom and I were on the look out for a cute overnight bag for me for my Birthday and Adolfo and I had plenty of generous gift cards to spend on our home. This place never lets me down. I got a cute green over sized tote with a dark brown border that my Mom had monogrammed for me in chocolate brown, love it! I also left with cute magnets for our fridge, a black and khaki apron, a sweet coffee table game, and our first Christmas Ornament as a married couple! Oh yeah, and with our present money I bought this beautiful antiqued white round mirror that I imagine will one day dress up a dining room. It was one of our splurge items and she called my mom to let us know it would be on sale at this big event. Thanks Susan! After our great shopping experience my Mom, me and my sisters all enjoyed lunch at the old Soda Shop. I love these days!
Saturday evening was the monthly family birthday celebration at my Aunt Lydia's house. We had fajitas, rice, beans, chips, salsa and dips, and lots of desserts, YUM! It was great just getting to relax and watch football together. Heather brought the DVD version of Family Feud and we also played that, my team lost but that is ok, we can't win them all.
Sunday I worked and got ready to come back to Kerrville, as soon as I got to my parents, I started to not feel so great! Monday I felt horrible, I was drugged up on meds and cough drops, but I am gradually getting better so that is positive. I would rather be sick now than the Holiday time. These past few nights instead of working all I have been able to do is take medicine and go to bed, so maybe tonight I can finally catch up on all I need to do by Friday, so I can enjoy my weekend and prepare for Thanksgiving!
As busy season approaches so does the travel bug. I am at a client in Kerrville for the next two weeks. I must say I enjoy this client because I get to be in the beautiful Hill Country, such a special place in my heart!
You can take a girl out of the Hill Country, but you can't take the Hill Country out of the girl, lol.
It just does something to me, its like a permanent smile is on my face, and I can't get rid of it. Everyone is so polite, and seems to just take the time to slow down and enjoy the life that is happening around them.
Anyways, so as I have grown accustom to packing for these great outings, I sometimes occasionally forget things, ha. This time I seemed to have forgot my conditioner.
So after a long day on the road and working, I decided to take a hot shower, relax in the room and just catch up on some work before bed time. Well, you know how hotels have their little favors in the bathroom, just in case people like me forget something. Well, here is my question.
Why would they put shampoo, a shower cap and lotion together. The shampoo said shampoo, the shower cap said cap, so I just assumed that the bottle that said moisturizer was conditioner. I mean what else would you put with Shampoo and a shower cap! Well, I missed the memo because the obvious answer to the Hampton Inn is lotion.
Yeah that's right, I was confused, I put a hand full of lotion in my hair! Well life goes on, but let this be a lesson. Take your time planning and packing to ensure you have all necessary items you will need, cause if you forget you might get a hand full of lotion in your hair, lol.
Well, hope everyone had a great Monday! Bring the cold weather already, Sweet Dreams, Ces.
Monday has been a great day, I woke up really early and got to work early, I love it when it works that way. I worked late tonight, and well, am still here spread out on the bed getting more things done. I want to get ahead so I have time tomorrow night to follow the election.
I can't wait! Ever since we were little it was our favorite thing to watch, we got to stay up later. It was so much fun watch the polls close in each state and see all the states change Red and Blue. Lol, we would fight our sleep to take it all in.
So not much but work went on today, Hope everyone had a great Monday and jumped back into the swing of things, sorry for the boring post, now back to work.
Until tomorrow, Ces.
November is finally here, it is the beginning of my most favorite time of the year! It is time for me to start the holiday planning, from outfits for Christmas parties, mailing lists and shopping lists! I can't wait.
This past weekend was pretty fun and relaxing I must say, Adolfo and I stayed home in Austin this weekend, because we had plenty to do!
This year we were able to receive Trick-or-Treaters at our apartment, so this meant a trip to the store on Thursday night for Tay and I. We had a Halloween party Friday morning at work, and I had wanted to carve a pumpkin, but let this be a lesson to myself, lol, you can not try to buy a pumpkin the night before Halloween, there are no more....Also, Wal Mart on 620 doesn't sell fabric, learned that too....
And of course I couldn't leave the store without getting treats for my sweet. I surprised Adolfo with his favorite Treats...sour patch kids and brownies, for our Halloween movie night coming up... 
So that was our Halloween, lol, eventful I know. We had dinner at the Roadhouse and watched a great movie. It was so cute to just see all the people out and in costume, never really been into that seen myself, but I do love people watching. There were so many cute little kids who will probably be sleeping and wearing their costumes till Mom and Dad give them away, so Fun!
Us sporting our Team Captain hats, love the Red.....they gave me two so I let Adolfo wear the blue...I had never done this race before so it was all new, there were people everywhere...
The race started, on our way to the Capital. It was so refreshing seeing everyone in great spirits and up early in support for such a great cause, we had Team members walking and running, we were all over the place....
Thank you again to all my co-workers and friends who came out and made the race a success for Team PSCO, I can't wait to do it again next year, it was such a treat to see all your sweet smiling faces outside of work so early in the morning, lol.
