Wicked; Up close and personal

We got to go see our friend Kevin Jordan in Wicked last weekend. It (and he) was amazing. We have seen the show before, but it still is incredible.

We met Kevin early and he took us on a backstage tour of everything, which was very cool. It is always fun to see how it all really works. Also, we won the lottery (well really one of Kevin's friends won it for us) so we got to sit on the 3rd row for half the price of the cheap seats; so, not a bad day at all. We took Kevin out to dinner and then headed back to the theater to see the show (thanks to Aaron and Haley for watching Julia). It was a very fun date for us to go see something we both enjoy.

Devin Williams, CPA

Although Devin has been a licensed CPA since last November, they only do the ceremony once a year. We were happy to have Devin's mom Linda, and Peter in town for the occasion. So, we rented a mini-van and all drove down to Austin for the swearing in ceremony. So, now Devin is officially official.

Julia did pretty good in the car, but we did figure out that three hours is above her limit these days as she did get pretty restless. The fact that our portable dvd player did not work on the trip did not help the situation at all either. We ate some great food and enjoyed the quick trip to Austin. Also, while Linda and Peter were here, we got to do lots of fun things. Devin took them for a tour of the new Cowboy's stadium (it is ginormous)!

We had a great time while they were here. Come and visit any time. We love visitors.

Two Cookies = One Happy Daddy!!!

This is Devin. So, I am a happy daddy. We are potty training Julia this week and giving her little treats as rewards. Yesterday she went in the potty, so we gave her a little bite-sized cookie (she loves cookies). She really wanted two, but the rule was one - she really asked nicely and REALLLY!! wanted two cookies. She was very polite, so we gave her a second cookie. As soon as she had it, she came right over and gave it to daddy! I love my little girl!

We are getting back into blogging so stay tuned.
