Football, Wurstfest, and Halloween.....

Our weekend started out with quite a bang on Friday night with a ROUGHNECK WIN against the Sweeny Bulldogs. I am so proud of our Roughnecks (and especially #52) for going into Sweeny and kicking their tails, to become DISTRICT CHAMPIONS!! My voice is still hoarse from cheering so loudly :) :) :) We cannot wait for playoffs.....I have a feeling I will be running the roads of south Texas the entire month of November. Ohh the Boys of Fall......

Then on Saturday, we ventured out to New Braunfels for the 50th annual Wurstfest.... which is by far one of the best festivals in the area...where else can you have a 10 day salute to sausage and beer? We went out to get our fill of fried pickles, funnel cakes, potato cakes, fried crab balls, and pork chop on a stick... yes on a stick!! And let's not forget about the polka music..... I was raised on this music, my Daddy taught me how to dance to this music. It felt like I was at home among the tuba and accordion players. My grandpa played the accordion, and it always brings back a happy memory to hear this type of music. What great fun it was to eat, drink and polka the our Saturday away!! It was a wonderful time with great friends, and THANK YOU Martha for taking pictures.

What a great group to experience Wurstfest with....fun was most certainly had by all!! 

 FRIED PICKLES!! Seriously, this is my all time fave food, can't you tell??

 The "Wurst" Clown, I'm sure he has a name....but you know how that goes, but this was a fun picture!

 My sweet friend Martha, we are becoming regulars at festivals together!!

On Sunday, Matt and I had a lazy day, which was so nice, because these days are few and far between. We ventured out to the Lake for a nice lunch, and just spent the afternoon hanging out and relaxing. Sundays are usually hard for me, I hate when he has to leave to go home, I usually cry a bit, but then Matt always puts it into perspective, saying that everything will work out on God's plan, and we will be together, in the same city soon enough. He is seriously the best, and I can't wait to spend all my days with this wonderful man (in the same city)!!

Once Matt left, I went to visit my family. MPK is now 6months old, and I wasn't going to miss his first Halloween. How precious is he??

He was the little jailbird. His Daddy (my cousin) is a police officer, so this costume was quite a hit when cousin was holding him! This little man has my heart!! I love that they live so close and I am able to watch little MPK grow, laugh, and learn. I will be extra lucky in December, when I move into their little guest house. I am sure there will be much fun to be had between MPK, his parents, and his new sister!! Stay tuned for those updates this week....when introduce his older sister LK.
