George Strait Concert @ NEW Cowboy Stadium

I surprised Mom for Mother's Day with Geroge Strait Tickets at the new Cowboy Stadium. I gave her a gift bag with a Cowboys Scarf and a Curious George Book. I took her a minute to put them together and then her face lit up! I had told her I was going to try and get tickets the day they went on sale, but I told her that they sold out before I could get them. We had really good seats, especially with the new HUGE screen they have.

Walked right past Troy Aikman signing autographs

Lee Ann Womack sang first - love her, she was great!

I had just got back from a 17 day Europe Cruise and felt like crap, but had to go to the concert!!!


Blake Shelton was Awesome

Jerry Jones & Jimmy Johnson



The stadium was packed!


The effects when George sang were amazing


The King of Country, Mr. George Strait!!!

Christmas at Disney World

Beth and I had the most Magical time at Disney World in December. Everything was decorated for the Holidays and it was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen. I can't imagine going back to Disney World when it's not decorated for Halloween or Christmas now! Good thing I'm going next Fall... We stayed at the Beautiful Grand Floridian. I, of course planned the whole trip with an Excel itinerary and all. I have just as much fun planning as I do actually being there! Planning the parks we were going to be at each day (always 2 parks a day), planning the ADR's (Advanced Dining Reservations) and what activities we'd do. The most special of them all was the "Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party". It's an extra ticket you buy in addition to the park admission to the Magic Kingdom, but worth the $50! You'll see video of some of the Parade that night as well as the snow and the amazing fireworks. They handed out Hot Cocoa and Gingerbread Cookies - I know it sounds cheesy, but we were just in awe every moment of that night.
I have quite a few videos here, but it's nothing compared to how many I took! Over 160 clips!
Enjoy!

December 2007 - Admin Christmas Party

Every year, the admins in Technology "try" to get together during Christmas and have a little get together. Anne-Marie was out of town and couldn't make it this time, but Katherine, Beth and I all met at Beth's house and had a great time! Beth had 4 different Christmas Trees decorated around her house - looked Awesome! We all brought food and chowed down! :)

Me & Beth

Beth's beautiful table setting - it looked great! We had some good fondue!
