Here are the rest of my favorites from our time in Texas! We spent our last days at my mom and dad's. We had a great time in their cozy-newly-remodled house....the house I grew up in! Santa found us there and Mama D and Pappa Terry made it extra special for us. Here are some shots from the last days we spent at home!

I will close with this picture of my cousin Amy and I. Amy is the closest thing to a big sister I had growing up. She and my mom are sisters and best friends. Growing up she was my idol...the cooleset person I knew. She is why I am an Aggie..why I was on drill team...the list goes on..If Amy did it, I was doing it! Amy is not super crazy about me being over here but grins and supports me always! Amy is going to close this blog as my first guest writer! Look out Dubai! She has some words for you! How blessed am I to be so loved. She and my family are a big part of the reason I sometimes just want to go home! I miss miss them! However knowing they are home cheering me on is my fuel! I know so many of them have been worried about us being in The Middle East right now. Just know we are safe and sound. Dubai is a very safe place and should that status change we will be on the first plane home. Cheers from Dubai! |
LOVE IT!!! Don't mess with Texas...women!!!
ReplyDeleteHow did I not know your Mother was a hair stylist?!! Love all the pictures of the family. And girl, everytime I see you, you just get more beautiful! You still look like that 18 year old I once upon a time knew. Oh, and is that Star Wars playing on the tv in those pics? Yeah, I'm a Star Wars Dork! Jealous!
