Happy Valentine's Day! ...okay maybe a day or two late :)

Clay and I had a fabulous Valentine's and I know you want to hear all about it!!  We started out the day in Edmond at the Frigid Five.  Clay did a 5 mile run and boy was it frigid!!  It's funny that the day before it was almost 70 and Saturday was in the 30s.  Clay and Chris froze their little tooshies off but they did a great job!  I sat in the car and watched  :)  Good job boys!

That afternoon we drove to Arcadia to eat at Pops.  It was an hour wait but so worth it.  The hamburgers were GREAT!  www.pops66.com  I definitely recommend it.

For dinner Clay picked up steaks and twice baked potatoes from LaBaguette.  OMG!  AMAZING!  I highly recommend buying steaks from the butcher at LaBaguette.  Just about the best steak I've ever had.  After dinner we decided to go up to the Waterford for a little dancing and drinks.  So fun.

I always enjoy a day dedicated to the one I love!!  It's really hard to believe that this was our second married Valentine's.  Time is flying by...I need to stop and take a look around.  

Have a great week!!  

Wow! Is it really February already?!

Where has the time gone?!  I have no clue.  Well....let's see.  What have the Holmboes been up to??  To start I have been working with my brothers - which is so much fun!  It's great being able to go to work and see my family.  I really love being a part of something that my brother, Tad, is pouring his heart and soul in to.  I'm doing the best I can to keep up.  :)

This past weekend Clay and I went to Vegas.  We go every year for the World of Concrete.  I just tag along for the weekend prior and Clay is there ALL week....blech.  I hated leaving him on Tuesday.  He'll be home soon enough, though.  We had a great time.  We saw Jerry Seinfeld at Caesar's Palace.  He is HILARIOUS!!  I highly recommend seeing his show if you can.  Too funny!!

Hhhmmm...I don't think much else has been going on.  Unfortunately we didn't take many pictures in Vegas.  I need to get better about taking pics!!  

Hope everyone is doing fabulous!!  Have a great rest of the week.  :)

Congratulations to the Leclercq Family!!

Happy Birthday Clay!!

Happy birthday to my sweet, sweet husband!  Today he celebrates his 33rd birthday!!  He doesn't look a day over 23, right?!  :)  I will never be able to tell him how blessed I am to have him in my life.  I love him so very much.  He means the absolute world to me.  I never knew true love until I met him.  Clay can always put a smile on my face and brighten the darkest nights.  He has stood by my side during everything!  I love you, babe!!  I hope your birthday was fabulous!  There are many more to come!

Happy Birthday Hubby!  :)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Can you believe it's 2009?!!  I can't.  AT ALL!  Time goes by way too fast.  

I hope everyone had a great celebration.  We had dinner with the Poes and Herdons at Flip's.  YUM!  My favorite.  After dinner Clay and I went over to Ben and Kelsey's for drinks and games.  We had such a great time!  I think definitely one of the best New Year's ever.  It was a great low key night with great friends.  We played on the Wii Fit, Scene It 2nd Edition, and Loaded Questions.  Loaded Questions was HILARIOUS!!  It's basically a game of questions everyone writes down an answer and you have to guess who answered what.  It's really funny....especially after a few adult beverages.  Thanks so much to Ben and Kelsey for hosting us!!

I hope everyone has a fabulous 2009!

Christmas!!

Well we survived hosting Christmas Day lunch!!  I made my first turkey and hosted 20 people in our home!  YIKES!  

Our Christmas celebration started Christmas Eve going to church with Karen, Luke and Kathryn.  We then headed to the Burgess house for Christmas Carols and presents.  It is always so fun hearing our out of tune family belt out carols!!  :)  Our nieces definitely have a great time helping everyone pick out songs.  Afterwards we came home and exchanged our gifts to each other.  This year we decided to do stocking stuffers and Clay out did himself!!  He's always so worried he'll get the wrong thing but he always gets exactly what I want!  

Christmas morning started off with me putting my first turkey in the oven.  Let me just tell you...that is not a one person job.  I had to wake Clay up to help me get it in the oven...that sucker was heavy!  20 pounds of bird isn't easy to maneuver!!!  After the bird was settled we went to Karen's for Jesus' birthday cake and presents.  Chocolate chocolate chip ice cream at 8:30am is always fun!  Haha.  At 11:30 Clay's dad came to our house to exchange presents.  Then at 1pm everyone started showing up for lunch.  I think everyone had a great time!  I'm still kicking myself for not taking pictures.  Gggrrrr!!  Hopefully someone took some.  Send them my way if you did! 

Don't worry....after that we still had one more stop.  It was off to Sugar's at 6pm.  We had chili dogs and played some Dirty Santa.

This was definitely the best Christmas yet.  We hope to make Christmas at our house a tradition...and maybe one day we can invite more people....we just need a bigger house!

Phew!

Well I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!!

Enjoy the last days of 2008.... 

Wedding Weekend

We just wrapped up our last wedding of the year! Our friends Shelley and Ryan were married Saturday night. I just love weddings! It's such a wonderful way to bring friends and family together. Speaking of bringing friends together...our favorite guests came to town...Jenny and Scott (and baby Jackson)!!! We all had such a great time spending time together and being with Shelley and Ryan as they became husband and wife!
Can I just tell you....Jenny has the cutest baby bump EVER!! So looks so amazing! AND! I got to feel Jackson kick. It was a little tiny kick. I can't WAIT to meet sweet baby Jackson....YAY!

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!

Oh and I'm hosting Christmas Day...so I'm sure there will be a blog to follow that event! EEEK! Wish me luck....
