September 11th
As I surfed facebook today, I noticed that everyone is posting where they were on September 11, 2001. So here is my story for that day.
It was my senior year of high school and I was 17 years old. My dads cousin had passed away just a few day prior, and my parents and grandparents were in Arkansas for the funeral. I was left at home to take care of my 11 year old little brother.
That morning, I dropped off my brother at school, and was driving back to my grandparents house (who were out of town) for breakfast when I heard on the radio, that one of the towers was hit. By the time I walked into there house and turned on the TV, I watched the second plane fly into the tower. I stayed glued to the TV all morning, I remember listening to the news reporters talking live to someone at the Pentagon, and then you hear an explosion in the background.
The rest of that day was a blur, but I made it to school by second period (I had 1st off), and we still had marching band practice that night.
10 years later I still think of all the people who lost, a child, mother, father, sister, brother or friend on that day.

Abby's first geocache!
We have enjoyed geocaching for several years. Ben and I would cache all the time in Lubbock, and even after we moved back to Dallas.
Today the weather was wonderful (especialy after 60+ days of 100+ temps), so we went out for a afternoon of geocaching. We had some travelbugs that we needed to drop off, and so we hit up a few caches.

Here are a few pics from today!
