New Addition to the Family

This weekend, Mat and I were able to drive through Bryan, to pick up the newest member of our family, George. He is a beautiful 2 month old yellow lab puppy. George did great on the car ride and has enjoyed exploring his new home.


I think he is missing his mom and sisters right now (and also reacting to the shot he got this morning) because he has spent a lot of the afternoon sleeping.

Mat and I are both excited to have a dog, but Mat has been talking about it for a long time. After we got married, Mat told me he wanted a house, a dog and a kayak. We're 2 for 3 on his list, but I think it will be a while before he gets that kayak!

Our Weekend

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Mat and I have been busy trying to settle back into normal life after the holidays. We finally have the house back to normal, and I think we're both glad to be back in to our routine.
We spent this weekend in Houston. It was a busy weekend and we had lots of fun! We got to meet our new niece Cameron Kay Koteras. She made her debut a few weeks early. She spent a few nights in the hospital trying to coordinate her eating and breathing, but she is home now and doing great. She's tiny and big sister Kadence isn't quite sure what to think about it all!

We spent Sunday morning cheering on Marilee and Carrie at the Houston marathon. We had fun chasing them around town and cheering for all of the runners. I think part of Mat wished that he was running with them, but I think that he also enjoyed getting to see the other side of a marathon. We are so proud of them! After the race, we celebrated the girls' accomplishment and Mat's dad's birthday at Lupe Tortilla! Yum!

The Marathoners and their medals


We left Houston Sunday evening and drove to College Station to pick up a special package...more on that in a later post! It was a wonderful weekend, but it went by WAY to fast!
