Cruise

My motto is "better late than never!" This is the cruise we went on in June for Grandma Galloway's 80th birthday!














On the bus from the parking lot to the ship! We're ready for some fun!






















Chris & I on elegant night. This was my high school prom dress :D Never thought I'd get to wear that again!

And doesn't Chris look so handsome in his suit?!





















Family pics!
















I bought an underwater camera right before this trip! It was awesome!!




















We played a Family Feud game on the ship and although we didn't really all win, mom made sure we all got medals! Fun!

4.24.10

The day Chreph officially became Chreph...














My cake














Chris' Whataburger cake. Everything was made of cake except the cup and the container the fries come in. The burger was actually a brownie!

My step-mom made both our cakes and she did an amazing job!! Oh, she also decorated the whole place, made the bouquets, organized everything, and got me a hair and makeup person when mine didn't show up! :) Thank you Peggy!



























The weather was beautiful!! We got so lucky! We really could not have asked for a better day.





















Our first dance was to an Aaron Watson song called Sweet Contradictions. Aaron Watson is a Texas Country singer, and is one of Chris' favorites! Randy Rogers is the other favorite...just in case you were wondering.





















We did our fake exit with sparklers! This obviously isn't the best picture, but it shows how fun the moment was!

Okay, so maybe I was the only one jumping for love...but still, too cute of a picture!
















I never thought about the fact that unless you have a fancy, expensive camera, you'll have an uncountable amount of lag time between pushing the button and actually taking the picture. Many laughs were shared, and we gathered quite a crowd, but stayed determined and kept our eye on the goal!

The wedding weekend finally arrived!
















Cute shirts all the bridesmaids had...on the back it either said Bride, Maid of Honor, or Bridesmaid.
















The soon to be Mr. & Mrs. in the beautiful gazebo.

















The whole bridal party!















Just a handful of the Galloway side of the wedding















Making s'mores! Chris' saying that was on the bags: Apart we are nothing, together we are s'more. And that's why he helped me a write poem for my third grade class each week during my student teaching :)


The newest addition to our family is now about to be 6 months. Chris guesses he weighs about 65 pounds, all I know is that I definitely can not pick him up! He's a Bullmastiff and his dad weighs 165! Wow!








When we got him, at six weeks, he weighed 12 pounds and was adorable! He loved to cuddle :)






I truly feel sorry for my future children! They WILL dress alike at any opportunity.




...and at 3 months weighing 32 pounds.
We're proud to say he graduated from training camp tonight (he got a diploma and everything). Although he can walk on a leash, sit, stay, lay down, and heal, he has yet to master the "no potty in the house" thing. Ugh! Maybe he's just too smart for us and has figured out it's much easier just to go whenever he wants, wherever he wants. We're still hoping Bandit will rub off on him a little!
More recent pictures of Sir Maximus Galloway to come...
