our weekend in austin

The A&M Softball team played Texas in Austin this past weekend, so Chris and I decided to make a weekend of it! 

We watched some softball...

Went to IKEA!!

Got some fun goodies there

Can you tell which scrubber I've had for much too long?? I loove the IKEA scrubbers!
I also got some storage buckets for our office.

Then we spent some time at the Outlets in Round Rock. I found some jeans that fit me! Haha, I know that sounds so silly, but being 5'10" has its challenges! Thank you Banana Republic Outlet! 

Saturday night we spent some time at the Red Poppy Festival and listened to Cody Morrow play.

Sunday was Chris' 30th birthday!! We celebrated at our favorite mexican food restaurant, Posados. We don't have a Posados in College Station, so it was a nice treat.
(anyone else love butter in your hot sauce??)

The Sunday game wasn't until 5pm, so we had a few hours to kill. We ended up just parking in a parking garage near campus and hanging out/napping/playing on our phones.
You can see I got some sun! 

It was a great relaxing weekend! Happy Birthday to my sweet husband! :)

National Champions!

I'm sure you've heard by now that the Aggie Women's Basketball team won the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! (If not, WHERE have you been hiding???)

After the game last Sunday night that sent them to the Championship game, Chris decided he was GOING to Indy.
So that's exactly what he did.
He and our friend, Hayden left at 11pm on Monday night and drove the entire 15 hours that it takes to get to Indianapolis, attended the game, cheered the team to a victory, immediately turned around and drove 15 hours back home. Craziness if you ask me. Just one of the reasons I love my husband!

I sooo wanted to be there, but I had to work...bummer. So, here are some pictures from their time in Indy.

Also, the local news station caught wind of Chris and Hayden's journey and got them on the news. Be sure to watch the video in the top right corner.



Here are a few from the welcome home celebration the day after the game.


Does that say NATIONAL CHAMPION??? Heck yes!
This is the Aggie's first time to ever make the final four, national championship and of course, hold the title of National Champions. So it's kind of a BIG DEAL!

People are selling NC apparel like crazy, ads all over the place, Chris even talked about getting a tat of the team! (Just kidding!) Just cool to be a part of history!
