6 pack not a keg!

My husband gave me the best gift I have ever received from him the other day, and I don't think that he even knew it. During our entire dating experience I told him that I wanted to be an active couple doing outdoor stuf together and working out together. We go to the gym together often but have never done a class together. So on Monday we went to an abs core class together that is an intense 25 minutes long. He was only one of the two guys in the entire class. It was so great to be able to share that with him, as we walked out of the class red faced and stomach aching together knowing that we did something hard and intense together. Crazy I know, but I really am easy to please. So we are on our way to the 6 pack abs, well keep you updated :) ha!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend

So this past weekend my little sister came into town. She rolled in on the bus on a Friday around 11 , was promptly picked up by her bro and I, ate lunch, did some shopping, took in a movie and then finally laid our heads down to rest. And that was the slow day :) The following day we woke up early and started to get ready for the lake. A friend of ours has a family house on the lake and invited us to spend the day on the lake, so we made a spur of the moment decision to go for a few hours and then come back to go to church. So the day was fantastic, I still have images of 4 girls on a tube holding on for dear life and laughing hysterically! It was absolutely a great day. So we went to church that night, went home and made a fast dinner, I mean we were eating in the car, just to make sure that we could make it to the Beer Garden to watch the UFC fight. The fight was great, the location was quaint and the company was wonderful. The next day, I went to work, the sibling Tiddens slept in, picked me up from work at 3 and off we went to another family gathering, this time with the Hilton Family. Together we all made a healthy dinner of shrimp scampi and enjoying the time together. The time with my sister was too short but all together it was a fantastic whirlwind of a weekend.

Coastie Girls Unite

So at my wedding my great friends Christina, Regan, Kristie and I mentioned that we needed to plan a girls trip since we keep meeting up at weddings (Hawaii, Texas, etc) and now we are all married so there isn't anything to meet up for anymore. So Christina, our personal planner, started the reservations and we found ourselves in a cute little cabin in the Edisto Beach, SC for a few days and then spent a day and a half in Charleston, SC taking in the town and visiting Roxy for awhile. It was fantastic, yes I missed my husband, but getting together for the girls, doing outdoor stuff, sitting on a tin roof porch reading and just spending time talking was absolutely fantastic. We all got caught up with each other lives and only once turned on the TV to find out if we won the lottery (we all pitched in and bought a ticket) The trip was perfect, the company was excellent and the timing was excellent, I couldn't have asked for more and I am so blessed to have these girls in my life.

Next trip: Kodiak Alaska and we will bring our husbands with this time!

The Aramburu's Arrive in Texas

My brother lucks out by having his Navy Training in San Antonio so in April we got to see little Annabelle for the first time. Let me tell you she is gorgeous, nothing short of perfect. Of course she cries, spits up and have explosive poo but she is still the cutest little angel anyway. We lucked out double, because my In-laws were able to come over to San Antonio and spend some time with all of us as well. Micah and Tylar doted on Annabelle and JT and I couldn't keep our eyes off of her either. We were so blessed to be able to see all of them and so excited! Just thought we would share a little!

Cirque Du Soleil - SALTIMBANCO

This weekend, my amazing husband took me to Cirque Du Soleil (yes their was much begging involved to get him to go) but he got us tickets for my Easter gift and it was amazing. I thought I was doing really well with my ab workout but seeing some of these acrobats that support themselves with only their arms and lift up their entire body parrallel to the floor, is just amazing! The colors, the sounds, the dancing, the skills, the excitement, the laughter and the enchantment was more then I could take in at one moment, it was just fantastic. Check out this clip to understand what I mean! Oh and of course Kuddos to the hubby!

Corpus Christi: Windy City of the South

So last Thursday was one of the windiest days I have ever experienced in Corpus Christi. I think they said the wind was around 30 mph. So we could hear the wind rattle the windows throughout our office and we also saw the front door almost take off a few hands. So Amy and I thought we would give you guys a few examples of how windy it was down here! Enjoy!

Fixing up the Bedroom

Well as we said earlier in a post, we had to get a new bed and the timing kinda worked out nicely. We got a great bedroom set at a killer deal! Therasa helped me out tons putting it all together while Jonathan was at work as a bit of a surprise. So tell me what you think!!! :)
