Birthdays and celebrations!

I can't believe it's been so long since my last post...actually, I can.  But the main reason is that I haven't moved all my pictures to my computer.  And the computer that I will be loading is not online...so we need to go buy a router for wireless internet.  Until then, I will have to beg, borrow, and steal other people's pictures to show what we have been up to or use the not-so-great pictures from my I-phone.

We moved at the end of January to Spring and we are living with my parents for a while.  Kevin and I are so thankful to have such amazing parents - my parents for letting us stay with them and for my in-laws helping us with the actual move!  Neither one is an easy task!  Living in Spring has been nice - we are back near some old friends, the house is perfect, and it's fun to have family around.  The hard part is the COMMUTE - it is long!  We know it's only temporary, but the sooner we can build the house, the better!

Cooperman had his 3rd birthday recently and I will do a whole post on that alone soon! He LOVED, LOVED, LOVED his party at the Little Gym and he was glowing the entire time.

 We went to Austin last weekend to celebrate Kevin's mom, Karen, who was a recipient of a "Top Ten teacher in Texas" award! What a huge accomplishment and it is well deserved. We were happy to be there to support her and see her acceptance speech (which she did fantastic on!).

While we were in Austin, we also had an early birthday celebration for Gordon.  We ate at a really cute restaurant called Chez-zee.  Although, it didn't quite live up to last year's Vegas birthday, it was still a good time!  Happy birthday, Gordon / Dad / G-pa!!!

For a late Valentine's day celebration (and just because it was MUCH needed), Kevin and I stayed another night in Austin with just the two of us.  We went to the Duchman winery, had dinner at the Oasis on Lake Travis, and stayed at a little bed & breakfast, and enjoyed this... 

I have to say, it was SO nice just to be with my husband - we don't have enough time to do that as often as we would like.  Thanks to my parents for planning a fun filled weekend with our kids while we were away!
