Cave without a Name

Our good friends Kelli and Garrett Nahas came to visit from California this week. Yesterday we ventured out to the "Cave Without A Name" here in Boerne (pictured above). To ring in the New Year, we have been BBQing all day and plan to go in to San Antonio tonight where J and Garrett will be doing all of the partying for me and Kelli (the pregnant ladies). Kelli, my college roommate for 4 years, is due with her first baby in June!

Go Frogs! Anna's TCU Graduation

These are some pictures from Anna's graduation from TCU. The whole family went to Fort Worth to celebrate and had a blast! That's 4 down, only 2 more college graduations to go for the Johnson-Gross family (hang in there Kent and Regina)!

The Boerne "Back House"

Many of you have asked to see pictures of our little home in Boerne. I posted a slideshow to the right of pictures of our rental house here a few blocks off of Main St. in Boerne. Enjoy!

Baby's Room

(Before)

This weekend our good friends Max and Whitney Jodry came to visit and help with the baby's room. Our rental house only has two bedrooms, so we are trying to figure out a way for the second room to double as a guest room and nursery. In the top picture you can see the "Before" of the guest room. Note: J and I did not pick out this color blue for the walls. The room is fairly large and has it's own bathroom and walk-in closet, which is wonderful!

Below is a picture of my sweet husband putting the paint color on the wall so that I can decide if I really like it. This is a really big deal because J hates painting. In our last house, I was the designated painter, but I have pregnancy as an excuse not to help this time around!

(Priming the walls and testing out the paint color)

As you can see in the picture, J and I have decided to call our baby boy Trip. This is a name used for boys who are the third generation to be called a certain name, since we are officially naming him Harry J. Kuper III after his father and grandfather. We thought the name was unique and classic at the same time.

As the room progresses, I'll post more pictures, so stay tuned!
