wedding

Joel was Patrick's best friend when they were kids. He got married in July 2010. We went down to Kingsville for the wedding.

All dressed up

Timmy danced with all the girls. He had a great time, although he got a little wild.

Aquarium Trip

We stopped at the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus on our way down to Patrick's friend, Joel's, wedding in Kingsville.

Timmy loved sea creatures. He really enjoyed himself.

The Lady Lex

Another stop in Corpus was at the USS Lexington aircraft carrier. I lived in Corpus for 18 years and had never visited it. Patrick had.

This is a tourist shop next to the Lexington that has the shark mouth door.

Timmy and Penny at Barton Springs

He really had fun. (I don't know why he was holding a ziplock bag on his arm...)

Big, Less Fat Loser

I'm the biggest, now lighter, loser. I've lost thirty pounds low carb dieting and jogging since January, only 24 more to go... It was so motivating. I didn't realize how competitive I am. It's been much harder to keep at it without the pressure and accountability of the weigh ins. Patrick has lost even more weight. He's doing so well and looks great. I hope we can keep the weght off this time. I won $190 which we spent on bills.

Birthdays

In July after Lexa, it's my turn for a birthday.

Next is Patrick's turn.

Looks like we had some cake eating helpers.
