"I am my beloved, and my beloved is mine"

This was the theme for my youngest sister's wedding that we had last weekend. I am not sure what is worse...knowing that I am old enough to have both my sister's married OR that my kids were just so cute and old enough to be a part of the wedding. We had a blast being a part and the kids were fabulous. I remembered what a blessing it is to have someone to spend your life with. Have you told those you love how much you love them? Being surrounded by family that weekend in that little country chapel, reminded me how special my famiy (and friends) are to me. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the wedding.

We're Back

Well, it has been a long time, but the O'Briant's have come back around to report.

We have been busy the last 8 weeks since Christmas. So many things, normal daily life things, going on to report. Most importantly two great things have happened. Keith and I found time (by the grace of my mom - THANKS A LOT MOM) to go on a cruise together. We had a BLAST !!!! We flew to New Orleans and sailed out with a group from Keith's corporate office to Cozymel, Mexico. We spent our days doing WHATEVER we wanted - laying out by the pool, eating what we wanted, and most importantly - sleeping as late as we wanted. The weather was beautiful. I even got a sunburn - imagine that - but in February. - WOW!!!!





Then today, like many other families in NorthWest DFW, we enjoyed a winter storm. After fighting a normal 15 - 20 minute drive home, which today took 45 minutes, we played out in the snow and loved every minute of it. Our front yard easily received 4 -5 inches of snow. Real snow..not just the slushy, wet stuff.
