Zoey's First Birthday

It's hard to believe Zoey is one year old! It seems like just yesterday she was a puppy.

We celebrated with dog treats and toys, she even got a card from her family in Wisconsin. She is one lucky puppy!

West Side Story

 After falling in love with broadway last year at Phantom of the Opera I knew I had to get Alan to a show.  We went to see West Side Story in Austin and we both loved it!

Dallas Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon

I ran my first 1/2 marathon in San Antonio to get ready for the wedding, so when Faith and Sarah asked me to run another with them in Dallas I jumped on the chance to not be a one hit wonder. Running a marathon is not just something on my bucket list to mark off but rather something I want to do for the rest of my life. Especially now that I know I am capable of it.

Alan on the other hand while he has more miles under the belt than most people because of PT with the Army had never run a 1/2 marathon. I convinced him to do it, and he finished, but he was hurting. He had bought new shoes for the race and had unknowingly bought a pair of toners. We all had a blast and 1/2 marathon #2 is in the books!

Snowball fight!

Who says it doesn't snow in Texas? But when it does let me tell you know one is prepared, I'm pretty sure a few patients had a pretty scary ambulance ride out on these roads.

With very few Texas wanting to brave the weather our ER staff had plenty of time to let loose for a good old fashioned snow ball fight.

Superbowl Sunday

It was the ultimate show down of football supremacy when the Schano Steelers took on the Glasser Packers for Superbowl XLV. Unfortunately it didn't end well for the Steelers with the final score 31-25. But really who can complain when you're having fun with family and friends. Besides with the such good teams there is sure to be a rematch on the horizon...

Happy New Year!

Alan and I welcomed in the New Year for the first time as a married couple!  This past year has been one heck of a ride, from Alan coming home from Afghanistan to the wedding we sure have been busy.  I had to work the holiday weekend so we had a pretty tame New Year's Eve bash.  Alan took me out to eat sushi and hibachi at Nami and we were in bed by ten.  And, as always, I have made the obligatory resolutions.  Ladies and gentlemen in no particular order...

1) Blog more often (check)

2) Drink more water

3) Keep up the running

Sounds pretty realistic right?  Well we have an exciting year in front of us.  Alan starts taking Psychology courses at Central Texas A&M in a few weeks, and then we come to a cross roads and possibly a move when he starts the master's program in the fall.  No matter what the year holds we'll get through it with the support of our family and friends.

Engagement Photos

Here is a sneak peak of our engagement photo session with Sam and Ben from Essential Sunshine Photography.  They were absolutely wonderful to work with and the pictures came out fabulous.  We don't have many pictures of the two of us together so we are super excited about these!!!
