Time may change me ... but I can't trace time ..

So i feel like the last time i wrote summer was just beginning ...and so much has happened since then... i bought my first BMW!! To say the least it has been an eventful summer ... and i think i am quite ready for fall and what it will bring ...... i leave you with a picture of my new baby :D

Everybody's workin' for the weekend..

A 3 day weekend that is! I know I'm late but here is the Memorial Day post. We rented a beach cottage (for 2) in Port Aransas for the weekend and had a blast ... hanging out on the beach, watching dolphins, riding around in a beach buggy that maxed out at 15mph, riding jet skis, playing putt putt, meeting monkeys and taking pictures with them ... you know the basic beach/weekend stuff :)

The only 2 story Whataburger (Corpus Christi)

we got a flat ... :( bummer ... luckily phil knows about that tire changing stuff!


Our beach buggy!



Mama and baby dolphins!

Amazing Grace...

This past weekend was my little sister's communion ...for those that may not understand this concept it the first time a child of the congregation accepts the body and blood of Christ and officially becomes an active member of mass....it's pretty cool stuff ... on a side note phil and i saw mr. klepac who so brilliantly played at my sister's mass .. too cool for school :) ...

The Cavazos

how sweet ...

my mama ordered a bounce house for the little kiddos ... it was sooo hot outside!

One of the 50 million cakes my mom had ... why?

favors that we made for the guests ... candles from scratch with the help of my sweet mother in law :)

just another sunday...

Even though Sunday is bittersweet because it indicates the end of the weekend and the beginning of yet another work week ..... i like to think that sometimes it's more sweet than it is bitter :]

Phil surprised me by taking me to the Houston Urban Market ... awesome! i cannot wait to go again in October! It's a collection of designers and shop owners that sell really cool things (most of them at a discount) ... i had my eye on a matching set of chairs for my living room, but they were snatched up before i could make up my mind ... oh the tragedy :(

This is a giant letter C made of brushed aluminum ... the dealer told us he bought these letters from a business that went out of business before it even opened .... sad day for them .... happy day for the Cavazos!
this is a cheese stone from India ... who doesn't love cheese and stones!? :) when i saw it i immediately started day dreaming of dinner parties or family gatherings and my cheese serving stone being a conversation piece ... wrap it up, i'll take 3! (just kidding i only took 1)
These are wooden horse figures from India .... not quite sure what to do with these fellows ... i tried it out on the wall b/c it had a hook ... hmm ... i don't know if he will live there ... i'm sure that i can work them in somehow


These were unframed prints taken by a photographer based out of San Antonio...i am in love with these. i am pretty sure they will live in our bedroom over our nightstand dressers (another story) ... i just need to find frames. This dealer also had antique aggie boot spurs ... so cool!
okay so i brought it home and wanted to use it immediately ... not to shabby i could eat my cheese like this everyday!
Sunday dinner
i was impressed by my salad ... spinach, strawberries, pecans, feta cheese, balsamic vinaigrette
so i wanted homemade dessert ... but one that didn't take forever to make or an oven. this is cheesecake pudding (jello - no sugar mix) mixed with milk instead of water above a layer of graham cracker crumbs and topped with blueberries .. delish ... happy Sunday!
