Wally at the Texas Tech Athlete Talent Show

So, as most of you know, Wally is really talented in the music department. This year, Texas Tech athletics hosted the second annual talent show to benefit the Special Olympics. Each team either nominates a teamate or performs as a team, and performances range from dances, singing, playing musical insruments, and other random things....anyway, the men's basketball team nominated Wally for the second year in a row (very smart I think ;)!) He ended up getting second in the show, but was definately one of the crowd's favorites! Enjoy the video of Wally singing "Hallelujah".

So the video wouldn't upload but its on youtube!!!

Happy Birthday to ME!!!

So I had my 23rd birthday this week (kind of a boring one if you ask me)....not one that you are really excited about or looking forward to anyway. I had a fun day though, but I had to start a new rotation in my internship this week, which meant I went to work around 8 and until 5 no one knew who I was, much less that it was my birthday....so that stunk.

But my amazing husband was super sweet and took me to lunch to my FAVORITE place, the infamous HOME CAFE....by the way, if you have not tried this awesome Lubbock local restaurant, you are truly missing out!!! Back to my birthday, my mom and I went after I got off work to Bless Your Heart, where I am way too obsessed with frozen yogurt, and it just so happened that "Dreamsicle" was the flavor that day, the best yogurt known to man!

After that, I went to the Red Raider game against Baylor. The game didn't turn out so well, but I did get to see one of my dear friends, Jordan Secord, who was my co counselor at Camp Travis in Eagle Mountain my first year as a coach....she is amazing! She works for the Baylor athletic department as an academic coordinator....AKA a team mom haha!!

And yes, best for last, Wally had gotten me an incredible pralines and cream ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins, where we are $1 scoop night junkies. I got the treat of him and Robert Lewandowski singing happy birthday to me with 23 candles burning on top of my cake (by the way, blow out candles fast on an ice cream cake, it melts rather quickly.) Our great friends, Brad and Tara Newton also came to join the party! It was so fun to spend some good quality time with the people I love!

I have been really busy lately, so I haven't got to write in a while, but I will get the video of Wally performing in the talent show soon, I promise (He did so good!) and also enjoy the pics of good ole Farwell High School Bball. My cousin Collin is a freshman on Varsity (go Coll, you're a stud). Both the boys and girls (my awesome cousin Laney is a junior on that team) both won two games into the playoffs! I also got to go skiing with Macey, and Laney, and we went to Casa Blanca and celebrated an early birthday the weekend before. I had a blast because the snow in Ruidoso was incredible....fresh powder....its glorious!!!

Anyway, its warm in Lubbock FINALLY, so I am so ready to welcome in the spring! May your day be filled with much JOY!!! Until next time.....
