Spring has definitely hit at the Holman house! We have loved the past few weeks of beautiful sunshine and warmer temps! We have been busy busy the past couple of months and LOTS more fun events to come in May, June and July- so be on the lookout for more posts on the 2nd Annual Holman Family Beach Trip, Memorial Day at the Parker lake house, Stephen/Erin's GA Mountains wedding, Noelle/JT's NC Mountain wedding, my 10 year high school reunion, July 4th at the lake house, etc, etc, etc! It will be a fun and busy summer - can't wait!
For now, check out what we've been up to the last couple of months...

Blake and I went to the Rangers' Home Opener in early April - great game, great day!


In late April, we were invited to the Dallas Museum of Art - Art Ball 2010! SO.MUCH.FUN!!! We had a great night getting dressed up and going out with Luke and Lisa Henderson and Dan and Caroline (soon-to-be) Hatton!


My sister hosted another fabulous Mother's Day luncheon at her house! So much fun to spoil the mammas in our family! (Note: Blake was at a bachelor party in Atlanta that weekend, so he is not in the family pic)

Mom and her girls...Melissa, me, Mom, Jen, Amy

And we just got back from a BEAUTIFUL wedding at Wildcatter Ranch by Possum Kingdom Lake. Blake's cousin, Carol, got married outside on a beautiful ranch - we all had a fabulous time!

Cooper wanted to be in a pic with Aunt Heather and Uncle Blake - too cute

The beautiful background for the ceremony

A sweet picture of my nephews and niece - Cooper, Hallye, Mason

Meet Greta!

Greta, our sweet little black lab, joined our little family on March 13, 2010!! She is so precious and we have been having a blast with her! She loves to go on walks, she knows how to sit, stay, lay down (sometimes) and is so playful! We love her to pieces and have been amazed at how quickly she has been growing. Enjoy the pics!

Little Blessings

So many sweet little blessings have entered the world the past few weeks! Blake and I have been fortunate to have been there for most of them and can't wait to cherish all these little ones!

Cason Keyes Burdett, Jr. - Feb 23, 2010 (with mommy, Regan)

Hallye Paige Holman - Feb 23, 2010 - OUR NIECE

Griffin Thomas Fitzhugh!

My perfect and adorable nephew was born today!!! He is amazing and probably the cutest baby I have ever seen! Congrats Melissa and Ryan! You will be amazing parents and I cannot wait to spoil this little boy every single day!

JUNIOR!!!

One of my dearest friends, Regan, is about to me a mommy VERY soon! (March 4 at the latest!) So we had a great reason to shower this beautiful mama-to-be and her precious little bambino, Cason Keyes Burdett Jr! He will be one loved little man and we CANNOT wait to meet him!





with my precious mom- she will soon be a Gigi!!

Hostesses - Elizabeth, me, Mama, Chelle and Noelle

Celebrity Look Alikes

So there is a trend going around on Facebook right now, that asks everyone to replace their picture with the celebrity that people tell them they most look like. I thought it was kind of fun and decided to post it on here as well. Let me know what you think. It is interesting to say the least.

I actually get 2 look alikes on a regular basis:
Kate Bosworth

and Elisabeth Hasselbeck

Personally, if I really did look like either of these women, I would be very flattered. Not sure if I see it, but that is what others tell me.
And Blake gets the same one almost every day. It is pretty funny how often he is told he looks like a young Brett Favre! (i agree too)

Hello 2010!!

Many apologies in the delay of this post... clearly 2010 started several weeks ago. However, 2010 also brought 3 weeks of icky-ness to me. Seriously, 3 weeks of an upper respiratory infection, 2 rounds of antibiotics, 1 round of steroids, countless nights of coughing and no sleep. I also passed this loveliness to the hubs and we are just now starting to feel normal again! WOW!

We started 2010 off with a BANG at our house for our first NYE cocktail party! Such great friends and family were there to ring in the new decade! 2010 is going to be a FABULOUS year!!!! I CAN.NOT.WAIT to see what is in store for the Holmans this year :)

The Dessert Table

The Party Favors


Dad and his girls...3 out of 5 of his girls (Mom was probably in the kitchen helping me with something, and Amy couldn't make it to the party)



Yes, those are Riedel champagne glasses... I got a little stressed about them ALL breaking! But how do you stop Peter, especially when he was dressed up like that.

Happy 2010!!!
