The Montgomery Clan






A week ago yesterday I picked up my three favorite Montgomery girls from the airport. I was lucky enough to get to spend 6 days with them at my home all alone! Despite the fact that 2 minutes after walking through the door it looked as though a tornado had blown through I love having them here. It is amazing to watch the girls grown and turn into people with their own style for life. We did a lot of activities while they were here including the Fort Worth zoo, dinner with an ex step mom, dinner with an aunt and cousins and some time with uncle Curtis. It has taken me two days of house cleaning to get my house back to normal and laundry done. I am sure I will continue to find splattered milk and what not for weeks to come! It is my understanding they are moving back to Texas and should hopefully be back by mid Aug. I am sad that I did not make it to Canada this year to see them and the beauty up there, however I am so happy to have them back and close. Blake will be home this week and then my siblings and I(for those who know all three of us know that means me) are throwing my parents a 25th anniversary party. It should be a good time and hope to have lots of family gathered. I know the Montgomery girls will have lots of fun that weekend hanging with their Uncle Blake!

Floating the Guadalupe





The weekend after Memorial Day we decided to go New Braunfels and float the Guadalupe River. Friends Josh and Jenna went along with us and Buck, an AD on Blakes old rig(yes old, I will get to that too). We pulled our trailer down there to avoid having to sleep in a tent and to allow for ac :)! Anyhow, it started a little rocky with the camp ground not giving me all the information I asked for and costing an additional $60. The first night we went to the Grist Mill for dinner then dancing at Gruene Hall. The next day we went and floated the Guadalupe River, this is a day I will never remember. Seriously, I don't think I have ever been so intoxicated that I absolutly can't remember a section of time but this day I did it! Thanks Buck for the new drink, you are right you can't even taste the Vodka in it! Anyhow, I woke with a pretty bad sunburn and some stories that are never to be mentioned! All in all, a good weekend though!!!!!

Blake Birthday!






I honestly thought I had already posted about Blakes birthday but apparently I have not. So, back in May(early May) Blake turned 30. I was able to pull off a fantastic surprise party with most immediate family members and good friends! He was genuinly surprised but what I had put together. We had a fantastic dinner at the Reata in Fort Worth and then went on to Pete's Piano Bar for a little more fun afterwards. I am attaching a couple of pictures from our weekend!
