Pecan trees are Falling down, falling down..

Got home from work this week to find this in our backyard:


And you can see in this photo that big patch of sky which used to be covered up by tree:


This is the third limb this tree has dropped. We don't really know why, but think perhaps it could be that there are *so* many pecans this year, its just getting too heavy for this old tree to carry. I guess this is one way to make room for an addition out back!

Wedding Cheer


A few weekends ago we went to a gorgeous wedding - Kyle's close friend from high school, CJ, and his long-time girlfriend Nicole were married in San Antonio at the Cathedral (the oldest in the US!). They had a beautiful (full mass!) ceremony, with the Monsignor that gave them both their first communion officiating the ceremony. Afterwards was a very packed, fun, and tasty reception at a nearby hall. And at the end of the evening, they drove away under showers of rose petals. We'd have more photos, but lost our camera right after the rehearsal (therefore, the photo above is during the rehearsal, and doesn't show everyone all decked out in their wedding attire). Thankfully it was found after the honeymoon in someone's car!
