Lunch with the Ingram Clan

Hello all.   Today we had lunch with Mother Ingram, Betty, Big James, Little James and Little Man (Reid) at Olive Garden.  Little James and Reid are going back to Texarkana on tomorrow so we said our goodbyes.  

For those of you not familiar with the Ingrams, Betty is Mark's sister and her boyfriend's name is James, but her son's name is also James, hence the "big" and "little".  Then there is "little man" who is Betty's grandson.  Got all that?

Here are some pictures.

James and Reid come to visit

Mark's nephew James and his son Reid are here visiting from Texarkana this week. They belong to Mark's sister Betty who lives here in San Antonio.

We took them out to eat at EZ's. It was great. We had burgers and milk shakes. So much for watching my cholesterol. I'll be eating vegies for a week to make up for that.

Here are a couple of pictures


Here is James and Betty, and Reid is look at the aquarium.

Welcome Back To Blogspot

Hi Everyone,

I know it's probably frustrating that I keep switching back and forth, but I think I've finally decided that this is the most user friendly blog.

Some of my friend with Windows Vista were having trouble viewing portions of the other website so I'm back on here.

I will be posting all of the major photo albums on http://web.me.com/trentboarnet so don't delete it from your bookmarks. I will announce when I am posting new photo albums.

I will have the Alaska pictures up by this weekend.

Vacation Plans

The Real Estate business is going ok.   June was a pretty slow month but July has proved to be more fruitful.  Overall, I'm doing better than some, and worse than others.  I'd say, for my first year, I did pretty good.

Mark and I are taking our summer vacation in August.  We're leaving Aug 14th for an Alaskan cruise.  We'll fly up to Seattle and spend a day there before we set sail.  We'll be cruising for 7 nights.  We'll spend another day in Seattle when we return and then we fly home.

We haven't chosen any of our tours for the cruise.  The only thing I really want to do is go whale watching. The rest of the time i'll be content to lay around and look at the scenery and read.  It's been pretty hectic having two jobs for the past year, and even though I don't show it alot, I do get pretty stressed. (if only people would do what they say they are going to do, my life would be so much easier!)

Other than that, not much has been happening at the Ingram-Boarnet household.  I like the status quo.  No drama!  Ok, there was a tiny bit of drama.   I bought a new high-def camcorder for our cruise (without asking Mark first) and he threw a fit.  Luckily for me, it was a short fit.  He obviously still doesn't understand my desire for new gadgets.  He's happy with a library book and a quiet living room.  I need electronics to keep me pacified.  =)

I'll check in later.

A Rainy Day 1

I am making up for lost time by putting up a few posts in one day.  

The salon I work at took a "work trip" to Las Vegas in June.  The actual purpose for the trip was the International Beauty Show and Expo at the Las Vegas Hilton.  Many of the girls has never been to Las Vegas before so it was interesting showing them the sights.  One of our lovely employees turned into a virtual prostitute while on our three day trip, but that's a tawdry tale I will tell another time.

There are some pictures in the next post.

A Rainy Day!
