Congratulations

After Ty proposed to Hannah, he surprised her again when we were all waiting at dinner to celebrate! (I would LOVE to share the proposal story with you all, but that is Hannah's story to tell SO... Ahem. Hannah. A blog update soon. Please.)

We met at the Riverside Grill in Glen rose and it was SO good. I couldn't help but take a picture of the food.

They had a gingersnap ice-cream sandwich over a strawberry puree with whipped cream and strawberries... It was SO good!

     I am so incredibly excited that my sister will be getting  married! Ty is such a wonderful compliment to the woman that Hannah is. I cannot wait for them to begin their lives together as husband and wife. I am so glad that Ty included us on such a special night. We had a great time at dinner celebrating both of them.

Congratulations Hannah and Ty. We love you both!

A Cowboy Named Sam

Once upon a time, a long time ago, (about 5 weeks ago) a special cowboy celebrated his 3rd birthday. 

His name was Sam.

 The party was complete with "cow" cupcakes with sherif badges! There was "cowboy chow", hay bales, a waterin' hole, and we even had campfire roasted hot dogs!

One of my favorite birthday "traditions" is to have family and friends leave birthday notes and wishes. I look forward to reading them each year. 

We gave Texas Trail Mix to all of our friends that came to play.

This is one of my favorite photos! (thanks Cait) He got to wear his daddy's belt for his Cowboy party!

     We had a great time celebrating our little cowboy! Sammy boy continues to impress and surprise me. We were all set and ready to have a pirate party when Sam boldly announced that he wanted a cowboy party. Ever since he got a pair of boots, he has been SO into his boots, hats, and guns!
    I am so thankful for the little boy that Sam is. He is so full of adventure and loves to make people smile. In so many ways he reminds me of Ryne, and that makes me love him even more.
