Aggies & Longhorns

I had camera issues around the time of the last Aggie/Longhorn game, so I never got around to posting pics from the game. This was the last matchup between A&M and UT and let's just say we think that's a good thing! The fans from both sides were horrible and it was a terrible atmosphere. I was hoping to show Matt & Dean what a great place A&M is, because I really enjoyed my time in College Station. I don't think they quite saw the A&M I knew. We were expecting a really fun last game, but left with a pretty sour taste in our mouths. Matt even got pushed twice by (different) Aggies while just walking around (wearing orange). And I heard a LOT of really nasty talk from the Longhorns (we sat in the UT section). BUH BYEEEEEEEEEEEe to Texas University. So long to the orange and the white (and I know they feel the same)! It was fun while it lasted.

My hubby and I under the century tree! This tree is the traditional spot for engagements at A&M. We're a "few" years late!

This was the class gift from my Granddaddy's class of '38
We went looking for it and I was really shocked that it wasn't there! I couldn't believe they would've taken it out! Then, we looked a little further and they MOVED IT! I thought I was losing my mind there for a minute!

We rode a rickshaw over to North Side! Too bad they didn't have these when I was a student!
Best family pic we got with my camera! Drew stayed home with my parents (yay for grandparents)!!! Drew was wearing a longhorn tshirt and an aggie hoodie! Baby divided!

Drew is Two!

Our sweet boy is two years old!! Happy birthday to Drew!! He is such a blessing!
I love this picture because it captures Drew's real smile, which is hard to catch with a camera.

We tried to recreate this pic from last year...

Drew is Two - Can you Dig It??

The birthday boy LOVES all diggers and dump trucks - well, he actually loves anything with wheels (including airplanes)!
I think he was looking for cake....




Thanks, Pinterest!

Best Mimi and Pops, ever!









Ice cream topping -- crushed Oreo "dirt." Matt just HAD to add a bowl of real dirt to the table too! LOL

South Carolina!

Drew and I went out to South Carolina to meet baby Levi and hang out with the rest of the Poth family. Levi is a cuuuuutie patootie and is such a good baby! He is going to have some gigantic baby blues! He's precious and I'm so glad we got to meet him. We had a great time hanging out with cousin Katelyn and her parents too.
These pictures are all out of order, but we had fun going to the zoo, out to lunch, sisters night out, Cindy and babies night in (KP and Lex went out), and a bday party for Drew. I forgot to take my camera (crazy, since I got a new one for Christmas!), so these are all of Kristi's pictures! We also took the cousins for a photo shoot, so we'll have to scan those pics to post them here. If you want a print, let me know...we have plenty!

Levi!!!
Drew LOVED Gino...a little too much! HAHA


Feeding the Goats!



You like this, right, Gino?? :)

We had a few rough nights with Drew not sleeping well/getting pretty sick, but we still managed to have fun! I'm soo glad Drew was well for the flight home!




Early Birthday in SC


We celebrated Drew's birthday a little early while we were in South Carolina. Kristi made Drew this cute Dump Truck Dirt Cake. It was sooo good (and cute)!

Drew used 2 spoons to eat his dirt cake! I think he liked it....!




Those Poths sure know what this boy likes! A new backpack for MDO (with his name and diggers and dump trucks!), a belly button book and a construction puzzle. He was pumped and he actually enjoyed the unwrapping (unlike Christmas)! Thanks, Poths!

Pilot





For Matt's birthday, I bought him a "discovery" flight at a local airport. They had a great deal on Living Social - so keep an eye out there if you want to do the same! He loved it! Now he thinks he's going to be a pilot! Drew loved it too. He got to run around and touch a lot of airplanes.
