My favorite band comes into town and my husband is out of town, who do I take?? my mom! Luckily for me I have a very hip mom that loves the Dave Matthews Band as much as I do. My older sister Maria first introduced me to the band when I was about 17 or 18 years old and I have been to about 2 concerts a year since then. (I'm part of the reason why that man is so rich now!)When I was in college my awesome mother would stand in line for me for hours to get concert tickets for me if I was in class. After I graduated my friends and I would use Dave concerts as an excuse to meet up and travel all over the US. Now that I'm married I drag Kemper all over to see him, he doesn't mind and I know this because on several occasions I have found one of my CD's in his car player! So if you have only heard them on the radio you are missing out and you have to see/hear them live to appreciate their talent.

Last weekend we all headed over to the Chenault's house to help finish painting. Well that was our original intention, but because it was so hot we all got into the pool and the painting was put aside. Even baby Nolan and Raider took a dip. Later to end the fun day Zach cooked us ribs for dinner. I think we all need to go over and paint more often!!

Let's just say that Kemper and Raider don't always get along. Seems like they are always annoying each other like children. Kemper is annoyed by the fact that Raider follows me like a shadow and gets panicky when he can't find me. Kemper says if Raider had an Indian name it would be Two Feet from Helen. Raider on the other hand is annoyed by the fact this giant man moved into his house stole his spot in the bed and takes him away from his mommy. So I get really excited to come home and see that they are spending time with each other and getting along.
July 2008
Happy Anniversary!! Kemper and I celebrated our 1st year anniversary on the 7th. We both couldn't believe that it was here already. I guess time flies when you're having fun!
We had so much fun in Jamaica on our honeymoon so we decided to go to the beach again to celebrate, but this time we decided on Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. We stayed at The Vallarta Pallace, an all inclusive resort. They greeted us with champagne and flowers. Our room was beautiful with views of the ocean and the pools. While we were there we ate great food, spent lots of time in the sun, went bike riding around the town, did a little shopping, went dancing, ate great food, we even did a little boogie boarding in the ocean. I became a master at it, I rode those waves all the way in. I was so proud! Did I mention we ate some great food? In all we had a wonderful time together in Puerto Vallarta. Because all good things must come to an end on July 8th exactly three years to the date we met, we headed home. We arrived home that night safe and sound, but just about eight hours later than we expected. We were almost home when the pilot told us we had to stop in Austin because of rain in Dallas! We were annoyed but then we just laughed because rain in Dallas was what brought us together three years earlier. Now we can't really get mad a rain delays but we will try to avoid flying on July 8th for now!!
