Greune, TX

So, I'm a few weeks behind on the timeline. Oh well...It's here now!

The Roebuck's were quite disappointed after having to cancel our much anticipated beach get-a-way to Gulf Shores, Al. Due to the oil spill (thanks BP!) the beaches were closed and according to the rental property owners "there's a funny smell in the air but you can still come and enjoy the pool!" We decided to scrap it all and make our way south to Greune, TX and enjoy the hill country! It was much needed and a great little weekend retreat. I have so many pictures to share so I'm thinking this may be post 1 of 3 :)

On our way! Kris took this picture and at what angle...I'm not so sure! I love the HUGE smile and just had to share :)


Our first morning there we enjoyed coffee at a little shop down the street from our house. Elly decided she was going to head out into the great unknown...sans mom and dad of course!

"Ya'll go on without me. I'll blow you a kiss to remember me by!"


Our first full day, we made the trek to Fredericksburg. I have ALWAYS wanted to go. I usually envisioned a romantic weekend away, enjoying the wineries in the area. With a toddler in tow and a bun in the oven, it wasn't quite the romantic wine sipping weekend I had always had in mind ;) I did enjoy every minute and can't wait to go back!



Elly doesn't SIT in the stroller...she prefers to PUSH it!


Loved this!


Well...that's all I've got for now. We're off to celebrate Kris's big 3-0 with some great friends. I'm going to leave you in suspense as to where we stopped on way out of Fredericksburg. I'll give you a clue...we went to hang out with "Willie and Waylon and the boys"

Don't Worry...

...I'm still alive! I'm a little ashamed that it's been so long since my last blog post. It was brought to my attention that my Grandmother pulls up my blog every morning while she drinks her coffee. She has been a little disappointed with my short hiatus from the blogging world! So this one's for YOU Grandma! I'm actually working on a monster post from our family weekend getaway to Gruene, Tx. So, until then, here's a little something to tide you over...Cutie with Pigtails! Does it get any cuter? I guess a couple pink bows would top it off :)

Hey Elly...

...do you have a secret?



I do, I do!


Are you ready for this?


That's right...a B*I*G sister!



Oh! Is that an ant?


That's right friends and family...Baby Roebuck will be here mid April! We are very excited and very eager to add on to this house!!! 1,200 sq ft just won't cut it anymore ;)

Big Girl!

Elly has officially mastered the spoon! She's been using a fork for quite some time now, but I've held off on the spoon due to my own selfish reasons...the MESS! I decided to give her the reigns the other day and she took to it like an old pro. She loves her cereal and eats every last bit!


B*I*G girl bite!


Sometimes the spoon gets a little sideways action :)


Oops! Don't worry mom...I've got this under control!


**These pics were taken on the same day as the post below. This is not the only shirt my girl wears :)
