The next few posts will be about....

our trip to ArIzOnA!!!

It may take me a little while.. but they will be rolling in=)

Who would have thought...

there would be SO much excitment on our plane ride from ATX to Phoenix???

What 5 exciting things could you possibly see in route from Austin to Lubbock to Albuquerque to Phoenix??? (keep in mind most times I fly there is usually nothing but clouds or water to see outside the window....hence the excitement!!)

1)view of Lake Travis...

2)It's another plane... WAIT... it's the plane that is carrying the space shuttle back to earth!!! I kid you not. The pilot announced over the loud speaker that this was indeed the space shuttle getting it's piggy back ride back to earth!! Few people on the plane were able to see this, because of the location of it, and excuse the blurryness, I had to zoom in a lot to get it viewable on camera...

3)Crop circles over Lubbock!!!

4) Wind turbine farms..

5) AND snow covered mountians!!!!

If you are looking for an exciting plane ride, I highly reccommend the southwest route from ATX to Phoenix! You may not get to see the space shuttle though.. that might have been a once in a lifetime.. maybe I should have played the lottery that night???

Calender Gala

The annual DSACT Calender Gala was held September 19th at the Rough Hollow Yacht Club in Lakeway. It was Awesome!!! The purpose of this calender fund raiser is to show that individuals with down syndrome share the same passions in life like you and I!! My sister Ashley is Miss August, and is photographed with Olympic swimmer and medalist Brenden Hansen. We celebrated by arriving in a stretch hummer limo, had a red carpet arrival, drinks, dinner, and dancing!! Please contact me if you would like a Calender for $12! They make a great stocking stuffer or Christmas gift!

Happy Fall Y'all!!

I LOVE fall! I love when the cool fronts come thru and the air is fresh and crisp. I love the changing of the season and how it's evident with the changing of the foilage. I love the pumpkins, Thanksgiving, and all fall decor. I love aroma of my pumpkin spice candles I consistently have burning. I love the fall season so much we got married in the fall. Did I mention I love fall?
Our casa is ready for fall!

I did not put out all of my decor however, but here is a preview for those who won't make it by for unfortunately the three months it will be on display=( WELCOME FALL! Bring on the cooler crisp weather!
