Happy Day of Love!

I have got to take this opportunity to big-time brag on my amazing husband! He totally spoils me more than I deserve! He made this one of the most romantic and special Valentine's Days EVER!

He started off the day by getting up early and making my favorite coffee... it was so yummy and smelled so good that I couldn't stay in bed much longer.

Then we spent the whole day relaxing and watching movies, enjoying each other and this great day of love :)

My man then treated me to a fantastic dinner at Giovanni's...yum! Then we went to a piano bar and enjoyed some live music! It was the most romantic evening! He always does such a great job of making me feel like a princess!

Just when I thought our perfect Valentine's had come to an end...my hubby had one more surprise for me...
You see, Blake and I don't normally do gifts for Valentine's Day. It is so close to Christmas and birthdays, that we have always just said that flowers and a nice dinner is MORE than plenty. Well, Blake didn't exactly follow those rules this year. When we got back to the house, we exchanged cards and inside my card was a several-page letter that listed 100 Reasons Why I Love You!! Blake read me each and every one of them... so sweet and so special. I love him so much... it meant the world to me!

And then...the final surprise... was this...

A GORGEOUS David Yurman ring!!! He completely picked it out all by himself and I LOVE IT!!! I was totally surprised and could not believe he did that! It is beautiful!!!!

So there you have it!!! My fabulous husband and how special he makes me feel every day!
Blake, my love...
I love you more than I could ever express to you! You make me a better person and you have taught me so many things! You are the first person I have ever truly loved and I feel so lucky that you chose me to spend the rest of your life with. I love every day I spend with you... Thank you for making me feel like a princess!

Man's Best Friend....

How amazingly cute is the this guy?? Meet Chance!! This is my parents' adorable labradoodle! We have been keeping him the last couple of weeks and he is the BEST dog ever! Blake and I have been talking about getting a dog in the near future and I think Chance might be spoiling us lately. He is the best companion ever... never disturbs anything and always wants to be close to you! He is so much fun and had definitely made us want a dog to add to our family as well! The problem now is determining WHAT kind of dog..... I would love to have a labradoodle; Blake would prefer a golden retriever or lab...hmmm... maybe Chance will help me convince Blake to get a 'doodle!

Mavs Game!!!

For Christmas, my little sis, Amy gave us tickets to a Mavs game to welcome us back to Texas! She also gave some to my older sis, Melissa and her hubby, Ryan... so we all got to go together! It was so much fun.. Mel and I mostly talked the ENTIRE time and the Mavs won! Couldn't have been a better night!...Until some really terrible storms came through TX and OK and by the time the game was over the announcer was telling everyone to stay inside and not leave the building due to high winds and dangerous weather!!! AHHHHH....so what did we do? We proceeded to LEAVE the building and RUN to the car!!!! IN HEELS!!!! Not easy or fun... but we laughed our way through it and had some interesting pics afterwards :) Haha! All in all, we had a BLAST and all got home safely!! Thanks Amy!

Breckenridge 2009!!

Blake and I just got back from our first annual Holman/Cavazos ski trip! We had a blast with one of our favorite couples (Peter and Tara) in Breckenridge! It was just a short little trip.. but we were able to get in 2 1/2 days of some really fabulous skiing. The first 2 days were absolutely beautiful! Sunny skies, little wind, and not too cold... Day #3 brought a blizzard that was extremely cold and very little visibility. It really was a great trip with great friends and we can't wait to do it again next year! Blake and I hadn't been skiing in several years, so it was nice to know we could pick it right back up and we came home with NO injuries! I think snow skiing is one of those activities that you forget how much you like it until you do it again! We loved it!

We had a fantastic location that was ski in/ski out and walking distance to Main Street where all the restaurants and shops are! We couldn't have picked a better place and enjoyed some really great food while we were there as well.

I LOVE GIRLS NIGHTS!

Not too long ago, all my best girls got together for great food, great drinks and really great convo! It is so nice to be back closer to these girls and be able to catch up with everything that is going on in our busy lives! Can't wait for many more nights like these! Love you girls!
