Anniversary Trip

Well it has been a few weeks since we took a small trip to Mineola,Texas for our anniversary trip. Matt took me to Canton for the weekend and then we stayed in a bed and breakfast in Mineola,Texas. It was such a relaxing trip and we really enjoyed the quality time together. I got some yard art and some Christmas decor for the house so I am excited to get it up now that we are past Thanksgiving. The owner has such a neat story to go with the house and her grandparents are the original owners of the house. We enjoyed our stay and Mineloa is such a cute little town.

Art Love show downtown

This may look like some random pictures but they are actually pictures of my Dad at an art show showing off some of his work. Some of you know that my dad is very talented in his ability to draw.....I like to think that the creative side of me must come from him. He was invited by his neighbor to show his drawings in a small art gallery off Taylor street in Downtown. Matt and I spent Saturday night at the gallery supporting him and checking out all of the artwork of the other artists at the show. It was fun and my dad had a ball. This is not my Dad's job this is just his love on the side. A lot of his work just hangs in his house for everyone to enjoy. We were proud that we were there to be at his first show off party:)
