Memorial Day Weekend 2009

This past weekend was Memorial Day weekend and we celebrated by going to the lake with my dad. I took Friday off so I could have an extended holiday. I spent most of the day visiting with Roxy, who just gave birth to her first child. Theo and I went down to the lake on friday night. My brothers and their kids joined us down there on Saturday afternoon. We went out on our boat, which has been broken down for the past year or so. I don't know but it feels like forever. it was running pretty good and we went out fishing and we also went swimming. We also took the kids riding on the dune buggy my dad has. The kids all had a ton of fun. I had a good time even though despite my efforts I was unable to catch any fish :( Oh well hopefully next time. With summer coming up we will be spending tons of time at the lake and fishing.

It's a Girl!!!!

Last Thursday, May 21st @ 4:28 pm Roxy gave birth to a little girl. Isabella weighed 7.2 lbs and was 19 inches long. We all had our guesses as to the sex of the baby and we finally learned the answer. Mom and baby are doing well and are at home resting. My Matt is in love with Isabella already. He can't say her whole name but he loves his new little cousin Bella. They let him hold her on Friday when we went to visit and I didn't think he was ever going to give her up. Everytime I would ask if I could hold her he would tell me NO! It wasn't until she started crying that he finally decided to give her up. We are all super excited about the new addition to our extended family.

Introducing Mr and Mrs Green

So two weeks ago on May 2, 2009 our family friends Mike and Erica got married. They have been friends of the family for a really long time. My brother and Mike have been friends it seems like forever. Anyways they got married at Beaumont Ranch in Grandview. My brother was the best man, my sister n law was a bride's maid and my little niece was the flower girl. They all looked really good.

Arevalo. Yep my dad and step mom Mary officially got married on April 25, 2009. They have been together forever and it was nice to see them finally tie the knot. The had a very nice ceremony down at The Shores. The reception followed afterwards at the clubhouse at Pelican Isle. It was a small ceremony with mostly friends and family. We all had a great time and it turned out to be such a beautiful day.
