Reunion...

This passed weekend was a reunion of sorts. Stacey and I had not seen each other since my last night in Dallas, which had been exactly 15 weeks to the day! (I just looked at the calendar so no I'm not psycho woman) Almost 4 months! I've missed Stacey so much and her silliness a ton!! I miss our Potbelly lunch dates and grillin' nights at our place, but most of all just missed knowing I had a great friend just 10 minutes away to go hang with. Ok, dry the tears...it's only 3 hours now...well...not for Stacey & Josh --- they seemed to have managed to turn it into a 5 hour haul! She and Josh, her fiance, arrived Friday night and silly girl that she is, parked on the street so that we could run up the driveway to give each other a great big hug -- I know, dramatic, but it was funny. Anyhow, we had fajitas awaiting & had a great time visiting and getting to know Josh. Saturday morning we headed out for College Station to the A&M vs OU game, which was part of the reason for the trip (hate to admit that, but when we bought the tix, we didn't really know the extent of the horribleness that would be the Aggie season this year). But forget about that, it is about the experience of being at Kyle Field with the 12th Man and hearing the famous Fightin' Texas Aggie Band at half time, right! We stopped in at Southside in Elgin for lunch on the way to introduce Stacey & Josh to some of that great Texas BBQ that we have been finding around here. It was yummy! And for a West Texas country girl, I gotta say that I couldn't believe how grossed out Stacey was at eating meat off a bone! It was hilarious. She is so silly and that is why we love her. ;) Then on to College Station we went. I'm not going to go into anything about the game here except that we enjoyed the company we were with, getting to see my brother and some of his friends, watching the band and eating kettle corn. We also got to go onto Kyle Field after the game, which I had never done before so that was fun. Here are some pictures at the game.


On Sunday, Stacey & Josh went to Hill Country Bible Church with us. We are really growing to love this Church and haven't been anywhere else since we tried it. We visited many others before we tried it, but none of them were as alive as this church. I can just sense God moving among the people there. After church, we took Stacey & Josh to one of our faves where we take every guest that visits, Z Tejas, and it didn't dissappoint. The view was great and the food was even better! It was a great weekend! We had a great time hanging out. I didn't want the meal to end b/c I knew that meant they would be heading back to 'Big D'. I'll be there in a few weeks though, so it was just "see ya soon"!

Glad to see Jarrod is sticking to his roots and wearing the right t-shirt at the Aggie game!
