Welcome!

This little blog started on our wedding website, which kept family and friends up to date on the planning and details. Of course this is where we will provide all of the recaps of the wedding and everything after. We look forward to keeping family and friends up to date on our lives here in Texas and all of the adventures we share as newlyweds!

2012 Goals-one more!

Add it to the goals this year!  I want Rene and I to Volunteer more!  

I would really like Rene and I to find some additional events where we can volunteer this year.  In 2011 we volunteered at a district track meet to spread awareness about Breast Cancer with Susan G Komen, and then also with Hearts and Hammers for Dallas with Deloitte.  

I would like to see us double that next year!  Now where we are going to find the time to do this I am not yet sure but it's something to work forward to for sure!

Help Us Raise Some $$ for the Cure!


Rene and I weren't going to be able to walk/run in the Race for the Cure this year because we had planned on going to the UCF vs. SMU game which was scheduled to start at noon this Saturday....

Now things have changed and it's a 2:30 start so we have plenty of time to do the 5K and still make the all Texas UCF Alum Tailgate.

Help us raise a little money for a great cause before we walk!

Manual Labor

That's right this past Saturday Rene and I worked our butts off putting in some quality community service. We were painting and scraping the exterior of a house here in Dallas along side other Deloitte employees for their annual Hearts and Hammers event.

Each year Deloitte works with the local Hearts and Hammers group to help fix up the home of a local person who has fallen on hard times. We spent from 9am on Saturday until around 2pm scraping old paint and then re-painting the exterior of the house.


Even though my arms and legs were feeling it by the end of the night on Saturday and even worse on Sunday it was great to be able to donate some time to the community. Even if it meant that I didn't get to sleep in this past weekend :)
