50 Miles per Gallon

I don't know about you guys, but these insane gas prices are killing me. Had to fill up the Honda Rebel 450 today...used to only cost me a cool $5 bucks, but now...$7!?! Insane. Thats about what I pay on insurance for the bike every month. The $7 bought me only 1.843 gallons, but that got 93.4 miles on the Rebel.

50 MPGs is sweet!

Mommy's Day

Happy belated Mommy's Day to all the mums out there. On the 9th we drove out up to Oklahoma to go visit my mum. Side note, this would be the last trip in the Raider Tacoma :( don't worry, it was replaced with Raider2. More on that in the near future. Friday afternoon traffic was heck but we eventually got to Ok okay. On Saturday we went to check out Myriad Botanical Gardens and Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory. Pretty cool place. The rest of the weekend was spent gorging on stake and fajitas and so much other goodness that Roy and mommy cooked up. Delish!

Mari is getting big...the pic of sweaty momma in front of the fan is the best! Holly and I feel in love with Deanna, she was a cute little bugger. Mari and Louis seem to be doing great and have 3 AWESOME kids with one on the way. The last 2 pics in the Photo Album are more funny if you there. Bella wanted to take our pic...the short stack needed 3 tries but finally got a good pic. We enjoyed the weekend...

Thanks guys!

Sad Goodbye To A Great Friend

After about 3 years, close to 73,000, one wreck, countless trips to El Paso, Oklahoma, Dallas, San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Mustang Island...Holly and I said goodbye to our 2004 Toyota Raider Tacoma. Driven off the lot with about 5 miles, she took great care of us all the way up until we traded her in. We'll miss ya girl. :(
