BIRTHDAY WISHES AND AGGIE FOOTBALL!


Having a long weekend was the perfect time to see
Son #3!
He will be celebrating a birthday this month,
so we took advantage of this time
to celebrate!
How about a White Chocolate Raspberry Anything Bundt Cake?


Oh how I love seeing him home....
Mae Mo' loves her Robbie!


Both Texas and the Aggies played
on Saturday night,
so it's always going to be
the Aggies on TV at our house.
Jenn met friends over on Greenville Avenue
to watch the Longhorns....
lose! 


Nope,,,,,giving the Longhorn sign just doesn't work here.....
Gig Em' Aggs!


Ah....
as you all must be ushering in September with cooler temps,
we Texans are experiencing some of our hottest days yet...
triple digits! 


It's finally here.....
college football days!


I was able to capture a moment of love......


We discovered yet another fabulous dining spot
in Plano thanks to No. 1 son....
Shell Shack...in Plano!
Great seafood and great service!
This is now one of our favorite places! 
We had a ball........and a darling waiter!


It was a great weekend to celebrate a birthday...
he was able to see friends and family
and...
get his laundy done! 

Now, lets jump over to Atlanta and get an update on Piper......


Looks like Piper is a big part of the bedtime routine


Bathtime, reading books and saying prayers


Goodnight sweet girl......

Hope you all had a lovely Labor Day!

  8. Aah yes, football season is upon us...I know this because my hubby has been having "Fantasy" drafts for his teams! Me, I'd rather bake and this cake just looks luscious!! I don't have any sons, but had plenty of brothers that would have loved chocolate cake--round, square, or upside down:-D XOXO
