Smile

This past weekend Alex and I took a short trip to my hometown. I really needed some relaxation, and to see my nieces.   They bring me such joy, and help me to remember what life is really about. Ella, the youngest, is growing so fast, and I hate missing out. She loves taking pictures and videos on my phone, so we had a short photo shoot on Saturday. I just love that when I say, "Make a funny face!", and her little personality comes out.  Her faces are much cuter than mine, that's for sure.

Katie is pretty cute as well : )



On the way back to Austin, we just HAD to stop at the Apple Store since Alex's work discount finally came through.  He couldn't wait any longer to get his precious iPad, which he has been begging to buy since the day the original iPad was released.  He is now a happy man, and his attention span will soon begin to deteriorate...yay for me. (Please hear the sarcasm in my voice)



Happy Birthday

Today we're celebrating Alex's 24th birthday and his first official day at Apple.  He had to chug some NyQuil before bed to sleep through the night...he's a bit excited. We're going to celebrate with some Greek food & a store bought cake ; ) Here's to a great week!




Ich liebe dich!

Proud Lady

I'm extremely proud of my husband Alex, because he chased his dream and it finally came true.  If you know Alex, you know that he's obsessed with Apple, Inc.  He pretty much wakes me up every morning with a new Apple fact.  Anytime anyone has trouble with their Mac or iPhone, he's the one to call.  We own their stock, read their books, and love their products.  Now, he can officially say he is an Apple employee.  He's applied numerous times this past year, but nothing stuck....but then one day it did.  He met the right person at the right liquor tasting (Yes, that's right...we've both gotten our jobs through meeting someone at a liquor tasting).  So, if you need a job, I highly recommend you hang around liquor stores ; ) I truly believe that hard work pays off, and Alex works his butt off every day.  He would get discouraged sometimes when he tried so hard and nothing good seemed to come out of it, but I always reminded him that we reap what we sow.  Be honest, loyal, and loving to people and the Lord will one day bless you.  I'm not saying that God is always going to give you exactly you want, but he will bless you in his own way at his perfect timing.  


In celebration of Alex's new job, and his 24th birthday we decided to take a quick trip next week.  We wanted to go to Mexico, but my passport needs to be renewed, and planning a trip in week can be difficult.  So, we're off to Vegas!  I have never been a huge fan, and haven't desired to go (except to see Garth Brooks Live) but I'm pretty excited.  Unfortunately Garth won't be performing, but you know Celine Dion will...haha, I don't think I could put Alex through that.  We booked our trip last night, and watched Vegas Vacation in anticipation.  I plan on sitting by the pool most of the day, enjoying a couple of shows, playing the slot machines, and going on a damn tour ; ) Any tips? Must see casinos? Restaurants we can't pass up?
