Home Again

After a week in Burleson, Sage and I are back in College Station. I had to go up to Dallas on the 17th in order to attend the RISD job fair on Saturday morning then as soon as that was over, Sage and I headed to Fort Worth. She spent the week with Erin, Nick, and Samson, while I spent the week at my aunt's house helping her with this years Children's Advocacy Center Auction and Rodeo. We did a LOT last week - painted cute cowboys for the silent auction tables, painted a HUGE three-piece board for gift card donations, stayed up till 4:30 the night before the auction making sure everything was finished and ready to go, watched movies, ran errands, etc. It was a lot of fun!

Friday night was the auction. They had roughly 1000 attendees at $100/plate! Many celebrities were in attendance as well. Some of them included Reba McIntire's sister, Bandy Murphy (from toughest cowboy), Chad Eubank (toughest cowboy & CAC board member), Barry Corbin, Buck Taylor (from Gunsmoke & Tombstone), Walt Garrison (former Dallas Cowboys player), etc. Think there were around 30+ celebrities.

Saturday night was the rodeo in Cleburne, Texas at the Sheriff's posse grounds. About 5,000 people attended this outdoor event which was awesome! I love rodeo's! All of the proceeds went to the Children's Advocacy Center of Cleburne. It is such a good organization.

Anyway, I had a great week, as did Sage but we are glad to be back in College Station for our last two weeks of school before summer.

Craigslist Toys

So over the course of this semester, I have aquired a few new toys - some were needed, some were not. :) Oh well - I got REALLY good deals on all of it!!! If I ever need anything I always look on craigslist first - because someone is bound to be selling it. I LOVE CRAIGSLIST!!
