We met at Baylor our freshman year but didn't become friends until right before our Junior year and have been together ever since. We got engaged in Jamaica in March 2001 and married in June 2002. We spent the first six years in The Woodlands and had both of our girls there, bought our first two homes, and made it home. Then we spent the next 9 months in Beaumont (we got out of there as fast as we could). In August of 2008 we moved to Austin and have made it home. Bought our fourth home (and hopefully our last for a long while) and have loved it since we got here.
We did a Halloween theme since no one could come up with something to go with the Chaparrals!
Everyone got a gatorade and a bucket filled with snacks and goodies with good luck notes on them.
The moms decorated the bus for them
and set them off in style (it was raining so we had to improvise and do it in the hallway)!
Sadly, we lost in 4.
Kendall drove in to watch as this would be Taylor's last volleyball game ever. 😥
I will say I got teary eyed watching the girls come out of the locker room (some crying and some just looked sad), volleyball has a been such a huge part of our live the last 10 years.
Kylie and Dani came out to cheer/watch the girls.
My girls 😍
Tuesday I had to drive to San Antonio to pick up the brick for the laundry room floor and had lunch with Mom.
Then I went out and had a great visit with Papa.
That evening when I got home Marley was NOT ok. She didn't get up off the couch when I got home, she was shaking, and wouldn't open her eyes. When I finally got her up she couldn't walk straight, kept bumping into things, her legs would go out under her and she was glitching- like she was having little seizures. She scared the crap out of Ryan and I. It was Halloween so naturally all the emergency vets were not accpeting any new patients or had a really long wait. Finally we found one and got in the car and headed there. We learned that she had a huge ulcer on her that was causing her a ton of pain and sensitivity to the light which is why she was twitching. Got her some pain meds, antibotics, and eye drops and we were out of there. I was honestly so scared that it was something big and we were not going to get good news.
She did come home with a collar so she couldn't hurt her eye anymore and lets just say she is not a fan of it.
