It's just so beautiful!

Yesterday was a complete blast! Rangers won in an extremely aggressive way, and I spent most of the day in the sunshine!!

This was my view while I laid out at the pool:

After some sun time, Nan Nan (our lake family next door) let me use their jetski! The winds were 40 miles a hour which made for a very bumpy and fun ride!

We went to dinner last night at the Rock'n S bar and grill. It was really good. Right on the water with a great view! Afterwards, we dropped Mom off at the condo and Dad and I drove around to look at some of the damage from the fires. We started at the dam. It was about 30 minutes from sunset:

Next we drove down the road a bit to where we put the canoes in when we'd go on our 3 day trips down the river. Some of my favorite Coady memories are from those trips!!!

We did see some fire damage not too far from our condo. It scares me to think how close they came!!! I am so grateful to the volunteer firefighters who tamed these fires. My heart goes out to the families who lost their homes!

This is the other side of the road where they were able to save some land:

We went back to the condo. This is a horrible picture but this deer was fearless! I was able to get really close! She was eating some watermelon and didn't seem fazed by me at all! Even when she finally decided I was too close, she just walked away... No big deal. ;)

Some sunset pictures of the property:

This morning we were on the porch and I was holding Whitney's little boy, Jack, and Macie decided he needed some loving:

Wonderful weekend! 4 more DAYS till SUMMER!!

Pk lake

This place is such a joy for me to come to! It's so peaceful and wonderful place full of family and friends! Honestly, it's my little version of heaven. If I can't get to Paris, France... And let's face it, that hardly ever happens, :) I'd rather be here...

Sunset at the condo!

The view from our pool..

Jetsking in 40 mile an hour wind can really take it out of ya! Time to relax on the porch with my book and watch the rangers win!!!

Happy Memorial Day Eve everyone!

Estate sale

Come on out to our estate sale at 2100 Prestonwood Drive in Arlington, Texas tomorrow!!!! Looks like they sold a lot today, but we have plenty more!!!!

Seriously....

I love my life! I really do! I have a wonderful husband, amazing family, the best friends a girl could ask for, and a job where I feel like I am really making a difference. What more could a girl want? A flipp'in baby, that's what!!!

It's like getting a new car, or someone you know getting a new car, you start to see that car everywhere. Follow me here, when you've got babies on the brain, they start popping up everywhere! This week alone, everyday, at some point during the day, I have one way or another found out about someone's pregnancy. I am serious, everyday, without fail.

So if you are trying to get pregnant, it's a good thing you know me... That may be all it takes! God says, oh, you know Alyssa... Well, here's a baby!!!! Don't worry, I'll give here one too... I'm just going to make her sweat it out...

Seriously!!!! :)

Ok, but really, I am so excited for the people that are pregnant! And so jealous it's ridiculous!

So, in the spirit of full disclosure, if I do not get pregnant this month, ha. Like it's going to happen on my own, we are going to start the game plan set forth by our doctor next month!!!

I am really excited!!!! Summer is almost here, and maybe it will finally be my turn!! God has a plan for me, I trust it! I have faith... Blind faith! Ugh, I hate not being in control!

4 school days until summer!

iPhone

So, let's see if this works. I am blogging from my phone! How crazy is that!!! School is almost over and I am very excited about this summer! It's going to be wonderful! We had our end of the year Speech Club party last Monday and one of the kids brought a cake! I love my students!

Seriously! This is so cool!!! Also, Kevin and I went to the Ranger game last Monday night. We had the best time!

And Pres. And Mrs. Bush were there!

7 school days till summer!!!!!
