And then there was love.

Leslie already did an excellent post about the love sac, so I wont show most of my pictures, but I liked the one above. It looks like a skull of an animal. Below is a video of our vacuum packing. It was really cool to watch the bags shrink so much!

Continuing on...

Our next adventure was to Ryan and Leslie's! They took us to the LBJ Presidential Library. It had fun flight simulators. Here is Ryan and his girls trying to make a safe landing.

The Ryan's both play guitar so they played a few songs together. I love listening to the guitar!Here are the guys hanging out with their bottle of pop.
The twins sang a story to me. It is about the picture we drew, getting married in the castle and temple, and a dragon. Pretty exciting stuff.


Hmm, sadly I don't seem to have a picture of Leslie. I will have to work on that next time I go down. Be prepared Leslie.

Segment #2

We spent the night at Nathan and Mindy's (Ryan's sister) on the way down in Mesa, Arizona. We had dinner at Gecko grill which Ryan has been ranting and raving over since I started dating him. It was pretty good and it had different things on the menu than your basic Mexican restaurant. My Chimichanga had jalapeno cream cheese sauce. We also had a shrimp mango Quesadilla. Yum!! In the picture is our niece Emma and my wonderful mother-in-law.We had a ton of fun at James and Lonna's! The kids kept us entertained with toys.

They took us to fun parks for a train ride and mini-zoo.



We also ate at some really yummy places! I got to enjoy even more jalepenos with a great jalepeno burger at Phill's, mmm. I think my favorite was the breakfast place. I had a huge chocolate chip pancake that was absolutely divine.
Thanks for the fun time James and Lonna!

Trip to the Texans

I have lots to post about our trip to Texas, so it will have to be done in sections. 1st section: The drive.
The drive was really pretty at first (around Arizona). Here we have the Grand Canyon.
Here are some really cool red rocks.

Here is saguaro cactus all over by Mesa.Then we come to Texas.

10 hours later, we have the same landscape...I like Austin because it is a prettier part of Texas. We didn't get pictures of our arrival since it was dark.

New Camera!!!

Ok, I actually got this Monday, but I was going to wait to post with a picture I took from it. However, there has been no time to do so, so instead you get this.
I have only played with it a bit, but it seems to work great and I am excited to have our first camera finally! Look forward to better-quality photos from now on.

Ryan's pride and joy

This is Ryan's tiny paper crane. He had to use a push pin to help fold it because it was so small! Good news, hopefully(cross your fingers) after tonight, I can take pictures with REAL camera!! No more blurry grainy pictures. I think we are going with a Canon Powershot. Thanks for everyone's input! It was very helpful.
