Day 2

Well Day 2 was Tuesday which meant it was time to hit the slopes. I was alittle nervous at 1st since I had not been on a pair of ski's in 10 years. But it was like riding a bike, I remembered everything I had ever learned. And for that matter so did Shelly and Jeff. This was basically Jeffrey's 1st time snowboarding, it was alittle slow going at 1st but he was doing pretty good by the end of the day. It started snowing mid-morning and lasted all day long. It was also pretty windy which made for a cold day. But with all the layers we had on I actually ended up HOT. Go figure! We ate lunch on the mountain at Ten Mile Station around 1-1:30 made 3 or 4 more runs and called it a day. Me and Jeffrey caught the bus back to the condo and Jeff and Shelly went to the top and skiied all the way down to the front door of our condo. We were all pretty tired from our day so we decided to stay in and eat left over pizza for dinner and play monopoly! And by the way incase your interested I suck at that game!

Here are a few pictures from Tueday. Enjoy!

Day 1

We woke up Monday morning bright and early at 4:30 am to catch our 7:20 plane from Houston to Denver. The flight was pretty uneventful until the last 30-45 minutes. Which is when we unfortunately had to begin circling Denver airport so that they could clear the run way of snow and ice. This is also when the turbulence began. I have never had a problem flying before but this time I honestly thought that I was going to need to use the barf bag. (No Kidding!) Anyhow we finally got on the ground, grabbed our bags and rent a car and headed for Golden, Colorado to tour the Coors Brewery. Not only was that a pretty fun stop but it was very interesting as well. After about a hour and a half there we started our drive west towards Breckenridge. We got all checked into our condo unpacked, freshened up and headed to dinner at our favorite place. Down Stairs at Eric's. The best pizza in town. Me and Shelly have been going to eat pizza here everytime we are in town since we were little. Its so Yummy Delicious...
Here is a few pictures for our 1st day.

We are headed out tomorrow morning at 7:20 for our week long vacation in Breckenridge. We are going with my sister and brother~n~law, and cant wait to get there. Lots of things are planned so check back next week for updated pictures.

Try not to miss us while were gone... :)

Another Waco Weekend

We headed to Waco again this weekend to see family and friends. We didn't do anything to exciting. On Saturday I went to Shelly's for Jessika's bridal shower. And Jeff went to the lake and spent some time with his folks. I did not bring my camera so I don't have any pictures to share with you. However Shelly did take this really cute picture of me and my favorite little girl....

ABBY Ca-dabby

Not only did we get to spend time this weekend with Benjamin, but we also got to see Miss Abby as well. She is growing like a weed, well I dont know if she really is that big or if she just looked that way with her 5 pound cousin. Either way it seems like we have missed so much with her. She is constantly moving so we were only able to get a couple of pictures with her. Most of them not looking at the camera but pictures none the less. Next month is her birthday so I am sure I will be able to get plenty then.

This is my favorite:
Auntie M, Uncle Bubba and Abby

WHO TAUGHT YOU THIS?

Benjamin Heath

We woke up bright and early yesterday morning so we could make the trip to Austin. We got to spend the whole day with all the family. But more importantly we were able to meet and spend the day with our new nephew Benjamin. He is by far the tiniest thing I think I have ever seen. And such a sweet snuggly baby. It will be a few weeks before we are able to see him again and I'm sure he will look completely different. But until then here are a few pictures to enjoy.

Uncle Bubba, Auntie M and Benjamin

What a LONG baby

No babies were harmed at this visit. I PROMISE.


Us with Abby and Ben.... You cant always have everyone looking at the camera!

There's a New Kid In Town

That's right.... There is a bran new member to the Herring Family. Jeff's sister Jennifer delivered little Benjamin Heath around noon today. He weighted in at a whopping 5 pounds 15 ounces. He was 20 inches long with a head full of dark hair. We have only have a couple of pictures of him right now but and from what we can tell he looks just like his momma. We are going to Austin this weekend to meet our new little nephew and cant hardly wait.

Spencer's Surgery

We noticed about a year ago this small growth on Spencer's left shoulder. Over the past few months it has seemed to get alot bigger. So after his visit in January for his apparent seizure problem and talking to the vet about it we decided that it was time to have it removed.
So this past Friday we took him in for his little day surgery. I dropped him off at 8am and Jeff picked him up around 4pm. He came home with 2 stitches that we have to go back in 14 days and have removed. Which means NO bath until then. And since it has been raining now for 4 days this is really bad news. UHH!! He seems to be feeling better today, he seemed to be pretty sore Friday and Saturday. But I think he's gonna make it.

I dont have any before pictures, but if you are interested here is a couple of after shots.

1 Month

Well as many of you may know and for those of you that don't. I quit my job with Texas Children's ObGyn as of January 20, 2009. And started my new job with Care for Women ObGyn on February 2, 2009. On Monday I will have been with my current employer for 1 whole month. And I must say I LOVE my job. It is so nice to say that since I have been so miserable for the past 3 years. I miss my co-workers with TCH but not the physician I worked for or the managment team. (If you really want to call them that) Since being here, I wake up every morning and I am ready to go to work. And dont mind being there while im there. I go home at the end of the day basically stress free. And i have not been able to say that in a LONG time. And I am pretty sure my husband even likes me a little more since I dont tend to bring work stresses and drama home anymore.
So if anyone of you out there is not happy in your current situation. My advise to you would be to make a change. It deffinantly was worked out for me. I feel like I have literally went from Hell to Heaven. Instead of the other way around :)

Jump for Joy

Do you think she had a good time... I do.
