God, Love, Money, Food!!

I have been blessed tremendously over the past few months for so many reasons...Let's rewind back to this summer!

Mat and I made multiple trips to Dallas this summer for some really great fun with friends.  One of our first trips was to see our friends Michelle and Justin get married on July 16th!  It was a lovely wedding and we had a lot of fun seeing two wonderful people join together under God. :)

Then I had an amazing birthday party with some of my Dallas girl friends! We had margaritas, makeovers and mexican food! It was so much fun and Mat was kind enough to be the designated drive on our way back to Houston!!

Next, Mat went to San Antonio and I carpooled to Dallas with Claire for Stephanie's Bridal shower/ Bachelorette party in Sherman.  It was so much fun hanging out with all the girls and seeing Stephanie so happy :) Her sister in law and mother in law threw her a really nice bridal shower at a nice golf course in Sherman and then Gigi, her maid of honor threw an awesome bachelorette party at Choctaw casino in Durant, Oklahoma!
