"We Miss You Betho" birthday trip day 1

My inlaws stopped in before my mom came and we had a super quick, but really fun trip with them!! They are heading to Sedona Arizona and we were on the way! They got me the CUTEST dress I have ever seen and I can't wait for it to warm up so I can wear it!! They will hopefully be stopping back by on their way home this weekend. We always love having them here!!! We miss family. :)

So first and foremost, WE MISS YOU BETHO!!! We aren't going to be together on our birthday for the first time in 25 years!! I am SOOOOO sad!! But luckily my Mom is here to visit for a few days, and besides mourning the fact that Betho can't be here we are having a great time. I miss my Dad too by the way! I love having the whole family together and wish it could happen more. But anyway on with the post.

So the weather has been BEAUTIFUL around here lately. Sunny, warm, and no wind. Well, mother nature decided to change it's mind and it is freezing, flooding, and going between raining, sleeting, and snowing! Welcome to west Texas Mom!! But of course, we did our best to make the most of the day. However, considering I have a Volkswagen Beetle and 99% of the cars around here are massive F350s, the flooding roads turned into a nightmare for us in my little car. At one point we were sitting at a stoplight and giant cars on either side of us flew through the flooded streets and we were so drenched it was like my car was at the base of the "Tidal Wave" water slide at water world where all the kids stand at the bottom waiting be get soaked and knocked down! That was us. So we decided to cut our shopping trip short and go to a movie where we were safe and warm.

Tonight we are going to make taco soup and stay indoors. It will be fun to have a cozy night in with the fam! I am going to post a picture only blog of me and Betho in memory of her b-day, which is mine too but she is all alone and I don't want her to forget me! :)
