Joshua David

I've been traveling so much lately, both for work and personal reasons.  I can't tell you how excited I am to stay on the ground for an entire week in a row.

This past weekend we all went down to College Station to celebrate the wedding of my closest cousin Josh and his bride Heather.  It was a great party and we all were very excited to be a part of such a special event.  Here are some pics.

Mr. & Mrs. Isenhour

 Groom and Ring Bearer

He was so good in church, as soon as it was over he was allowed to make as many crazy camera faces as he wanted!

Babies, babies.

Sweet Emma is next on my list to meet. 

Hud the Stud (muffin)

I got to meet this lil' muffin top this past weekend.  Sadly, we didn't get a photo together... but we did get lots of snuggle time in.

And his world is forever changed.

More G2

Here are a couple of better pictures of our baby!  So SWEET!  I'm dying by not being there.

I think he looks like Richard in this picture: his eyes and maybe the mouth.  Although he does have our Interwicz chin!

G2 - He's here.

He arrived this morning and I can't wait to meet him.

DIY TV

As James and I work toward renovating our home, we've (I've) developed a little concept towards those DIY home renovation shows.  Let me explain the differences between those shows and REAL life renovations.

1.  You don't have some tv personality telling you how much money you SAVED by doing it yourself.  You just have to figure you saved something, anything.  Anything?

2.  What you don't see in the background is 50 other people helping on this project.  When James and I are lucky... my dad is helping and my mom is eating Red Mango in the background.

3.  They always have the right products, materials and equipment.  You never see them wasting an hour running to the flooring store for more grout.  And if they do, it's one of those 50 other people who are just standing around waiting to order everyone sandwiches.

4.  No project is complete in a weekend.  None.

5.  Everyone's happy.  (Lies)

This photo has nothing to do with renovations, but is still awesome in itself.
