My mother had a
landmark birthday this last weekend, she turned 29! It was a wonderful weekend... It all began
Thursday when our dear family friends,
Richard and Jessie flew down for the weekend to cheer on
the mighty BYU cougars. We welcomed them to Dallas by treating them to some yummy
Mexican food at Chuy's. Friday morning,
David and his wife Cara drove down from Oklahoma to cheer on their
OU Sooners. We had some delicious
Texas BBQ from Rudy's for lunch!
Saturday morning, we had a big breakfast to prepare everyone for the day of
hardcore cheering they had in store-- it was during this meal I discovered one of my new favorite recipes:
Maple Pecan Bacon... Thanks Southern Living! While the bacon (and just about everything else) was a success, the peachy rice pudding wasn't quite hacking it. I've tried making rice pudding twice, and I've failed twice. Lame.
Richard, Daddy, and David have been friends for
30+ (ish) years. How great is that?!
This is a better shot-- one that shows better how the weekend was. It was filled with
jokes and reminiscences, we all had a lot of fun!Sunday, everyone left. and that's when we had
cake and presents to mark mom's
29th (ish) year on this planet!
"Happy Birthday to you..."There were presents...
Lots of great presents! The following pictures sum up the night!
(oh, and that's a laugh... not a sneeze.)
Happy Birthday Momma! Thanks for all you do- you are truly an example of truth and righteousness, and I am really glad you are my mom!
