Helping The Hale Family

The Hale family is amazing.  
You know when you meet people and instantly know that you will be lifelong friends?!! 
That is how I feel about this beautiful family.
Aaron and Rob went to dental school together and when we found out we would all be going to Baylor for specialty residencies, we decided we would share a big moving truck! Mercedi is such an amazing wife and mom.  I have learned so much from her and am grateful for our friendship these last few years. They have been the best friends to us since we have been in Dallas.  We even moved into the apartment diagonally below them over a year ago because we knew it would be fun to live so close together. During Aaron's first year of Ortho school Rob drove Aaron to school every single day since we only had one car.  They are such loving, and giving people. We feel lucky to be able to call them our friends.


Ten days ago Rob suffered from a brain hemorrhage and has been in critical condition in the ICU. He was just about a month away from graduating from Baylor as an Endodontist after 10 years of schooling. Their whole world has been turned upside down in a matter of seconds.     
Medical bills are starting to come in not to mention all the student loan debt she will have to face. Please pray for them and go to the donation blog for her updates. This family so desperately needs this help.  Thank you.

Sneak Peek!

This picture is just a sneak peek of her Royal Cuteness on her 3rd birthday!

She was so sweet and happy (as always) all day!  I will post lots more pictures of her day... soon! :)

Our flight back to DFW

We got to McCarran Airport with not too much time to be at our gate (Aaron was moving our BBQ from our rental home out for the next renter- driving time was killer) so we rushed and ran through everything we could and we got to the gate, sat down and looked out the window and it started raining. It. was. so. weird.  This was such a HOT HOT trip- I can't express that enough- no sign of any weather for the ENTIRE 2 weeks that we were there and all of a sudden we were at the airport and it started to thunder, lightning and pour down rain.

Our tired girl- it was waaaay past her bedtime.

 And... a VERY tired boy!

The rain... this picture stinks but the rain was insane looking- for Vegas, that is! The flight attendant kept coming on the microphone saying that due to lightning being within 5 miles of the airport they were unable to unload any planes or do anything. Two hours later we were still sitting there waiting and they finally let the poor people waiting on the runways get off their planes.  A little bit after that the rain let up and we were finally able to board.  We got into TX around 2 am. It was madness- especially since we wanted to get up early and do something the next day for the 4th of July.  That didn't happen.

As always, we were sad to leave our families and can't wait to be able to visit again.  It was a great trip.

I will update with posts on the most recent happenings, including the 4th of July, our move, Aaron's trips (AAO in Chicago & High Adventure to Arkansas), Aubrie's birthday, and Luke's 9 month stats.  How is my baby boy 9 months??!!!!

Pretty.

Now that's what I call beautiful! :)
