Catch-Up Part IV: Thanksgiving

While we celebrated Thanksgiving day with the other Lee's in Houston. The girls and I were in Dallas for a a short trip at the beginning of the week... it was a whirlwind!

First: I got the chance to celebrate my friend Kristin as she prepares to have baby Paxton... any day now. I also got to see Danielle and Heather and meet the famous Will Clark.

Beth got to meet her cousins... Perry and Hampton Edgar. Here are all of the proud Edgar/Langbein grandparents with their biggest fans.

Beth also took her first visit to El Fenix! Even Uncle TT came to see the Lee girls.

Catch-Up Part III: Crazy Hat Party

Bennet's Birthday Party was so fun! Since Bennet changes her "head-gear" every 5 minutes or so, we decided to have a party celebrating her love of HATS! (ironically she was not interested in wearing a hat at the party). Lots of family and friends were there to celebrate Bennet, her birthday, and her new status as a big sister. Here are some scenes from the festivities...

Happy Birthday Bennet Bear. You bring us such joy every day, and we are so thankful for each minute of these past 2 years.

Catch Up Part I: Guess Who's Engaged

I know that this is a little "so two-months ago"... but it is such an exciting time! My lifelong friend, Angela Torn, accepted Stephan Shaw's marriage proposal on November 7! The cool thing about this engagement is that Angela and I have been friends since we were 8 years old, and Bryant and Stephan have been friends since they were in preschool! So, pretty much, this could not have worked out better for US!

(Stephan after picking up THE ring)

Stephan and Angela crossed paths many times- they were a groomsman and a bridesmaid in our wedding in 2005, lived 100 yards from each other during college at aTm, and even had a very wise person (ahem) suggest they date a couple of years ago. They finally "MET" in Novemeber 2010 at Angela's birthday party... and the rest is history!

Bryant and I have been so blessed by their friendship throughout our lives, and love celebrating their happiness and future together!

A Fairy Princess and a Pumpkin Stem

I am not sure what has been keeping me from the blog... hmmm it seems I started trailing off around October 3rd. So, fasten your seat belt for a serious catch-up time.

Here are some pictures from Halloween (that's right, like 3 months ago)...
