Summerzcool....


The Demeres

This weekend we went to the Jimmy Buffet concert in Frisco. Tooo much fun! Mom, Dad, and Codi were scheduled to fly in at 8:30 on Friday night, but Southwest decided to be fickle and 8:30 turned into 10:30. When they arrived we went to eat at Hector's on Henderson near our apartment. It was delish.
Saturday morning we got an early start, heading to Northpark bright and early. We shopped alllll day long, stopping only for breakfast and lunch. No complaints here, I got some fun stuff.

We headed to Frisco around 5, to join all the other "parrot heads" at the concert. It was a blast. We had seats on the floor, so I spent the majority of the concert on Chris's shoulders :) Jimmy made me have island fever... bad.

Hoppy Easter!

My baby sister is a Canyon High cheerleader... I cannot believe how old she is. For her tryouts this year her friends made "Team Codi" t-shirts and wore them to school the day of. I went back to watch her/visit, since I haven't been back to the Panhandle since Christmas. It was a quick visit, but great to just be at home and relax. It felt like I barely spent any time there during Christmas since we were torn in 8 different directions.

Me and Codi @ tryouts

I felew back to Dallas at 6:30 on Friday morning... just in time to go to work. Boo. Friday night I'm pretty sure I fell asleep at 8. I was tired.

Saturday night was spent catching up with an old friend, Collin. He was in town for Easter, and since his family lives in Southlake we could't go without seeing him.

Yesterday was Easter Sunday. We went to church and then to brunch at Cafe de Brazil... best crepes EVER.

On our way to church I had my first near death experience. It was rainy outside and we were running a little late (big surprise). We were on the highest overpass on 635 when my car hydroplaned. We spun in 2 complete circles as Chris tried to regain control of my car. I was sure we were going over the edge. We must have had angels watching over us, because we ended up without a scratch on either of us or my car. For the first time in my life I was completely speechless....

Jonesin' It.

The Joneses arrived in Azle on Thursday... However, Chris and I didn't head over until late Friday afternoon. Friday night we grilled out and played a game, a very typical night with this family.

Saturday the boys had an 8:40 AM tee-time. After the guys headed off to golf Ellen, Liz, and I took Carter shopping for an Easter outfit. We then headed to the mall to shop around and kill some time. Liz and I ended up getting dresses for Vintage Amarillo (The Amarillo Symphony Guild's fundraiser in May).

Later that evening Liz, Eric, Chris and I headed back to Dallas for a fun night out. We had sushi at Kona and then went to some fun little places within walking distance of our apartment. Such a fun night with a great couple.

Sunday the ENTIRE Jones family invaded our Engaged/Newly Married class at church. ha. Sunday afternoon was very uneventful for us... naps, cleaning, and preparing for the week ahead. Oh, and a venture to PF Chang's for some dynamite shrimp :)

I'm heading to Canyon at 8:30 tonight. I am very excited to be at home for a couple days!

March Madness...

Not just on the basketball court, in our household. March has been crazy busy! Where do I start? Since my last post:
Ashlee came to visit. It was great to have her here in Dallas. We had dinner on Friday at Old Monk near our apartment and crashed early... we are getting tooooo old. Saturday we shopped, sprinkles-ed, and starbucks-ed. It was great. Oh, and we have a new favorite, reverse happy hour at Kona Grill. It's ama-zing.

She flew back to Amarillo at 7:50 on Sunday morning, so by the time she left I was broke and exhausted. Good times with a good friend.

This past weekend Chris and I went out for sushi on Friday. It was delish. Saturday we went to the dog park w/ Livi Bear and relaxed around the house. Saturday night we had our March monthly event at church. Before the actual event we went to dinner at John & Bobbi's. After dinner we headed to Allen for dessert and game night. I made a yummy cinnamon pound cake for the event.
This weekend the Jones family invades Dallas... duh duh dun.
