House's First SNOW!!!

Our house got it's first snow on December 4, 2009. It was the earliest snow to fall in Houston on record! We had an early dismissal from school at 1:40. There was way more snow that had fallen at school earlier in the day, but this was the sight when I got home.

Claire Elizabeth Kopriva

Claire Elizabeth Kopriva arrived on December 6, 2009! We got to meet her a week later! Brian and Shelley are amazing parents and Claire is so precious!!!

Train Ride and Bethlehem

To celebrate Chris's mom's birthday the family went on a train ride from Cedar Park to Burnet. In Burnet, we walked through a re-enactment of the city of Bethlehem. It was a neat experience. We spent the night at Greg's apartment in Austin and celebrated Debbie's birthday too!

My 27th Birthday!!!!

I got to celebrate my 27th birthday several times with the people I love! I celebrated with Chris's family the weekend before, family and friends on my actual birthday, and then with my family the weekend after. I am lucky to almost share a birthday with my Dad. His birthday is the day before mine! So needless to say...I partied for a week! :)

Shelley's Baby Shower

We had a baby shower for Baby Kopriva on Saturday, November 14th! It was lots of pink, yummy food and a great time! I made the diaper cake for the registration table. It turned out really great! She got lots of exciting things!

Scarlett's 1st Birthday Party

Sweet Scarlett turned one on November 9, 2009! Here are a few pictures from her adorable Ladybug birthday party! My mom made her ladybug cake too! It was delicious, but Scarlett wasn't quite sure about it! Miranda made the labybug pinata! I was her project helper! It was a fun day for their family! We are glad we were a part of her special day!

Halloween 2009

We celebrated our first Halloween in our house by having a little Halloween party! It was spook-tacular and we hope to make it an annual event! I dressed up as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. I have always wanted to be Dorothy. Chris dressed up as Billy Mayes! :)

London & Paris (a few months overdue...)

This blog post is WAY overdue, a good 6 months ago...YIKES!!! So this summer we headed to experience London and Paris. It was the trip of a lifetime. We did so much in the 6 days we were there. It was definitely not a restful trip. We were on the go every day. We wanted to experience and do as much as we could. And we did. Here are a few of our favorite pictures and moments. Where to go this summer? Hey, it is only 6 months away! ;)
