Alec and his wonderful white chocolate cake from McKay's!

We had such a great weekend with our families! Friday night our families got into town and we went to Lytle Land and Cattle for dinner...it was so good. Then we came back to our house for some coffee. The next morning at 11:00 was Alec's graduation. Then we came back to our house for cake and ice cream and we entertained everyone with Rock Band. My Dad even played some with us. Then we went to dinner at the Beehive...one of our favorite restaurants in Abilene. 

Alec worked so hard these past 5 years and I could not be anymore proud of him! 

He is so glad to be done and looking forward to these next few weeks of no work or school!

People let me tell ya bout my best friend...

It all began in 3rd grade at Memorial Drive Church of Christ.

I met this incredible girl...

We shared each others weddings together.

And wedding showers
She even spent my exciting 21st birthday with me and my parents :)

These are just a few of the many, many pictures of us but unfortunately the majority of those were taken before the digital camera came into existence :)

So many great memories and many more to come!

Congrats Grads!

A party/cookout for our favorite MAcc program guys!

They worked hard these last 5 years so we decided to throw them a little party to celebrate their graduation! 

This is the calculator cake that me and steph made for the guys.

Their accountants....they've got to use calculators a lot...right?

A banner I made them...then taped to siding on a house

probably not the best idea

The guys grilling their meat.

Me and Steph both made two pies each...I wish I would have gotten a picture of them they looked good and tasted even better!

No school tomorrow! Woohoo! And its Cinco de Mayo...go celebrate and eat some mexican food!

7 Random Things...Tagged by Kenz

1. I am a HUGE homebody. I never really realized this until I married Alec, who is the biggest homebody I know. So this basically means if you want to hang out with us a great place to find us is our home and chances of getting me to leave it is actually pretty hard especially after a long day of work.

2. I LOVE coffee. I have to have a cup of coffee every morning, sad I know. Its so bad that one day we were out of coffee at our house so I didn't have any to take to school and my kids were freaking out because I didn't have my green coffee mug. Let's just say that only happened once :)

3. I want to be a photographer. I love teaching and know that it is one of my God given gifts. But I love taking pictures. It doesn't matter what it is I love to take pictures of it. One day I would love to pursue this professionally, but who knows what the Lord has planned.

4. I LOVE to travel and see new things. I think there is just to much that God has created not to experience it! I hope that I get to do a lot more of this in my future...as for now traveling is a distant dream.

5. I like to burn candles my husband on the other hand says that its like burning money (I guess that's the accountant in him). But he seems to be coming around.

6. I am always early. Not much more to it. I hate to be late....and if I think that I am going to be late I get extremely anxious and a little nervous. I've always been that way. I was the kid in high school who got there 30 minutes before class started...I know dorky...I just can't help it!

7. I used to play golf...a lot. My Dad loves golf so as a child/teenager I spent a lot of time at the country club. I even have a few trophies from golf tournaments...I might have been pretty good if I would have kept with it...who knows maybe I'll pick it up again.
