Boy Behind the Blog, New Year's Edition

In an attempt to stay up to date with blogging (meaning blogging more than once a month), I figured involving Robert would be a fun way to keep things interesting. He's my best friend, and my number one, and most of the time all of my experiences are with him, so it's only natural he gets to have some fun too.

I now present, the boy (aka husband, partner, baby cakes) behind the blog, New Year's Edition. My responses to his answers are [in these cool things]:

What are you looking forward to this upcoming year?
Spending more time with family and friends along with seeing the Mean Green go to a bowl game. 
[Okay, so it's a given that we will obviously make time with family and friends because it's one of our most favorite things to do, but let's not jinx our North Texas football juuuuust yet. We JUST got a new coach, but I do have to admit that I do have high hopes for the Fall. 1 win is just not enough for this tailgating family!]

What was your favorite memory from New Years past?
New Years at the deer lease when everyone and their spouses were there. 
[Yall-epic fail on my part. I don't remember what year this was for-maybe 2011? Wait, no it was 2010 going to 2011 because one of the wives was pregnant. It was really neat being out in the middle of nowhere with all of our significant others and bringing in the new year gathered around a camp fire. And then I needed to wash my hair.]

What is your proudest accomplishment from 2015?
Marrying my beautiful stinky wife. 
[Good answer. And he calls me stinky as a term of endearment, not because I actually stink. We are weird.]

What Is one resolution you'd like to try and keep this year?
Be a better Christian. 
[This is a great resolution and something we could probably both benefit from!]

What is one resolution that Danielle should have this year? 
Be a better practicing Christian. 
[I'll be honest, I didn't grow up going to church every Sunday-my church pews were on the soccer field, but with that being said this IS something that I've been interested in, and I think it would be great for us both to achieve this resolution together!]

Ta-da!

Honeymoon Part 1

Where to start, where to start? It's surreal to me how we've ALREADY been married over a week, AND that we've already been to the Bahamas and back :( The Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact) is such a beautiful place. It's the same island that has the Atlantis Resort on it, which we could see in the distance down the coast from our resort. We really picked the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We left cloudy, rainy Dallas and Atlanta to sunshine and white sand, blue water, and 80 degree weather! It's so crazy to me that we've already been back from there after spending the week out of the country.  Obligatory newlywed plane selfie Monday morning came dark and early at 4am to catch our first flight out of DFW. I was proudly wearing my super comfy new "wifey" sweatshirt that my friend/bridesmaid Shohreh got me-thank goodness she stalks me on Pinterest ;) along with our brand spankin new wedding bands. Robert's ring looks so good against his ...

Happy 2015!

Cheers to the New Years! Hope it was lovely and celebratory and filled with lots of hopes and motivations for this upcoming 2015. I know this year is going to be the best one YET! We spent our New Years at a friends house, who had a great set up (including a DIY photo booth) and festive decorations! Plus a champagne-tasting contest, so we got to try a lot of different kinds of bubbly!  The best is yet to come! And it's so true. Each chapter that we embark on as a human being brings a new day and a new goal and new "best" days. When I was in high school, it was all about graduation it being the "best day," then we got to my 21st birthday, then my college graduation, then one of many relationship's anniversary, then getting my first big girl job and then turning 25, then to being proposed to, and now my next "best day" will be April 11, 2015. And from there on it keeps on and on. Isn't that exciting?  Each day I'm workin...

Fiesta! Fiesta! Fiesta!

Viva Fiesta! Viva San Antonio! Viva la Alamo! This past weekend we spent a (short) day squeezing in all of our normal Fiesta activities since Robert and I thought last minute that it would just be too weird if we had missed out on our annual Fiesta trip that we've gone on the past 5 years. So we road tripped it out on Friday afternoon (BIG mistake) and finally made the 4 hour journey in about 6 hours-thank you Dallas traffic and thank you 18-wheeler for hanging off the bridge in Hillsboro; I just love being stuck in your traffic for an hour and a half while we watched a thunderstorm rapidly approach going 0mph on the highway. Goodness gracious. But we made it! And Jessica was there, amongst her peeps for the first time ;)  Saturday started out pretty slow. I had all of these expectations for Jessica to see and we get to the Market Square and it's pretty empty. THEN we tried to hit up our annual photo booth spot and they were closed. So we went on a walk and ended up down b...
