surprise!

Well hello there strangers! I am sure that you had all just about given up on me ever writing here again. I don't really have a good excuse for my absence, but I will do my best to not let it happen again. I have LOTS to update all of you on, but I'm going to start with the most recent blog-worthy experience, Trent and Andrea's wedding!

I flew home to Texas last Friday so that I could be in Houston for the big day. My graduate student wasn't able to join me because of finals and although I missed him dearly, I was able to have some wonderful time catching up with some of my sweet friends. 

Andrea was an absolutely beautiful bride and I am so thankful that I was able to watch her marry Trent. They are honeymooning in Napa right now and I hope they are enjoying every minute of being newlyweds!

Now for a few pics...

Kels, moi and Meredith.  We raced to the reception to get a good table and do some picture taking. It was such a treat to spend time with these two again!
 
 


Holick roomies with the stunning bride. We have quite a collection of these pictures from weddings!

After the reception a few of us decided that we just weren't ready to go our separate ways. The reception was just down the street from Escalante's so we headed over there for a little after party. Our waiter was kind enough to bring Charlie this fancy calculator for figuring out our bills...


My Texas weekend was quick but very worth the effort. I cannot put into words how wonderful it was to be around such wonderful friends again. It was great to hear about everyone's adventures lately, to hear familiar voices, dance with my girlfriends and laugh about old stories. I am incredibly happy that I was able to be a part of the day.

That's all for tonight friends! I promise to be back very soon with pictures from Easter, a first birthday, a 24th birthday and the long-awaited pictures from my weekend in Miami!

    I hope you're having a decent drive home- I know it is long and tiresome, but... it's all worth it!
