Skiing in the Desert

While Austin is fast asleep on the other side of the world, I thought I would post the 2 pictures he emailed me today. This is Austin and his coworker, Billy, skiing in Dubai's indoor ski facility. How fascinating is that?!? Looks like they are having fun.

"Doo-Bi"

I am in Dubai for a week with work. Today was our first day here. I have included a few pictures of my hotel room and the street that we walk down to get to work. I will have more details later.

Big Dam Loboes

This past weekend Austin and I traveled to Cisco to visit Moms and Pops (Pepper's parents) and go to a Cisco football game. It was the big rival game.

Cisco Loboes vs. Eastland Mavericks

Yes, that is field turf on a AA high school field.

You can see the press box right over our heads. Thats where I sat the remainder of the game.

Andrew also drove in for the game. He and Austin braved the cold and sat outside. We were disappointed that Brittany wasn't able to come with him due to her work schedule, but we understand how tough those auditing firms can be. Next time, Brittany!

The Loboes certainly did not disappoint. With over 1100 yards of total offense for both teams, Cisco beat Eastland 75-47.

Here is the plaque that is dedicated to Moms and Pops. It is just outside of the stadium. It's really special.

Pops is the announcer, or "The Voice of the Loboes!" It was cold that night, so I sat in the press box with Moms and Pops. It was awesome!!! I even did some spotting for Pops...letting him know who caught the ball and who made the tackle. If this optometry thing doesn't work out, I think I've found something that will. Spotting. =)

And here they are, watching the Loboes!

Moms, Pops and Austin outside of the stadium.

We had such a fantastic weekend in Cisco. We love you Moms and Pops!

*If you are offended by the title of this entry, take it up with Cisco ISD. They are the big dam Loboes. Referring of course to the dam in Cisco. *

Urban Garden

So I do my best to grow things on our little patio. Right now we have mums and a small herb box that includes thyme, cilantro and basil. They are all easy to take care of and they really add a lot to our concrete paradise, as we like to call it. I would HIGHLY recommend growing your own herbs. It's really inexpensive and can save you a lot of money if you typically buy herbs from the grocery store. And it's fun!! Enjoy!

Navy vs. SMU

Siblings.

We got to watch the Tech game with Katie!

John, Max, Dad, Andi, Mom (not pictured), me (not pictured) :)

We were cold!

Navy wins!

Just a few pics from last weekend. Blogger only uploads my photos when it wants to, and I just never know when that is or what pictures it will accept!

Error 400

I am attempting to post, but when I try to upload pictures it says "Bad Request. Error 400." I will try again later!

Eight years ago today, the Haley Huffstetler/Austin Puryear official relationship began. Here are some old photos to refresh your memory of how good looking we were. =)
P.S. We don't have a scanner, so we just took pictures of our pictures! Haha
