Texas Two Stepin

We headed out to Graham Central Station for some Two Step Lessons with our new buddies, Carrie & Casey.  It was fun because we're all able to laugh at ourselves.  We stuck around afterwards to see the pro's at work and let's just say we have a way to go before we'll be wowing anyone with our skills.  It was a really fun night though and the boys confirmed their talents lie closer to the football field than the ballroom ;)

First Sonogram

We've been waiting a month for this day and it couldn't come fast enough!  Today we finally got to see our baby for the first time.  We're only 7 1/2 weeks along and the baby is about the size of a blueberry but already the center of our universe! 

New Year's in NOLA

The gang all reunited in New Orleans this year for New Years, it was a fun weekend filled Shots & Sightseeing!

We arrived on Sunday, December 30th so we had a night to warm up on Bourbon Street.  Unfortunately, I think Shaun jumped the shark and almost had himself down for the count on NYE.  He rallied though and was able to join us for the swamp tour after all.  We spent the day tracking gators and then turned around and ate some gator for dinner, sorry guys!

New Years was a memorable one, we enjoyed a five course meal at Jacques-Imos followed by hurricane's and champagne at Pat O'Briens.  It was the perfect way to ring in the New Years and we look forward to many more with our fabulous friends!

Surprise!!!

Looks like 2013 is going to be an exciting year for us!  We couldn't be more thrilled for the adventure ahead!

Thanksgiving Round Two

My parents came into town again this year for Thanksgiving, just a little delayed so it gave us the perfect excuse to celebrate my favorite holiday twice!  It was also my Mom's 70th so we had lots of excuses and opportunities to celebrate.

Wink

Shaun surprised me with an amazing birthday dinner at Wink, it's one of the top restaurants in town and now we certainly know why!  We enjoyed the chef's selection with wine pairing and everything complimented each other so nicely.  I feel like a M&M commercial but the food just melted in your mouth!  The meal, the experience, and the company was truly amazing!  This will certainly be a birthday I don't forget ;)

The Big D

The Browns bring the Johnson's to Town!  We got lucky this year as the Brown's were scheduled to play the Cowboys for their out of league game.  As soon as we saw the schedule we started plotting with Steve & Susan for a trip to Dallas.  I'm so glad it worked out as we had a blast exploring a new city and getting to spend some quality time with the family!

We tried to turn them into true Texans by spending the first day in Ft. Worth at the Stockyards.

We even got Susan to ride a Longhorn, or pose with one at least ;)

Practice Round

The Real Deal

Then Sunday was strictly dedicated to the Browns!  We got up really early for a breakfast of champions and then arrived at the Stadium to tailgate with other Brown's Backers.  It was a great experience and boy is the new stadium impressive!
