Prince Charming

***I know a lot of you have been asking why he's still single...Well, the only answer I have for you guys is that he just hasn't found "his" Cinderella that God has set aside for him.***

Today, I've decided to try something new on my blog.

I read so many blogs and they are always doing these "linky" things (which I think are pretty neat)...whether it has something to do with sharing interesting facts, or fashion advice, or decorating ideas, or how to make something. The one blog I read the most is Kelly's Korner (I just learned how to do this today...I had to google how to do it...LOL!). She's a strong Christian woman and a mother of a beautiful little girl and about to have her 2nd child. I just enjoy reading her blog so much! :o) She does a series on her blog called Show Us Your Life and today she is doing a "single" series. Sort of a little match maker type thing. I immediately thought of my brother an d decided I would try this. LOL! :o)

Sooooo.....

Without further ado, allow me to introduce you to my brother, Chad.

This is Chad and I eating dinner with our family down at the coast.

One of our most favorite places to vacation as a family. :o)

What do you think?

He's 26 years old and is currently living in Galveston, Texas working on his 2nd bachelor degree of science in marine (better known as marine transportation or to give you a better idea what that means...he will be learning to navigate ships!) at the Texas Maritime Academy, which is affiliated with Texas A&M.

Chad saying "Gig'em" with the Cape Gibson behind him.

This ship will be his "classroom" on the water for the next 3 years.

He previously attended Texas State in San Marcos, Texas where he ran track and received his bachelor degree in Business Administration in December of 2007.

Little did he know when he received this shirt one Christmas that he would one day be attending college there.

Tailgating with friends at one of the Texas State football games.

Chad is in the middle with the striped shirt on.

Chad was chosen to be one of the faces of Texas State.

This billboard was on the side of one of our major highways.

There were even buses going around town with this picture on it. :o)

Hurdles at the Texas Relays.

Getting set.

As you can see he is very driven and extremely goal oriented. He's independent and knows what he wants out of life. Not to mention he's extremely good looking (can I say this even though he's my brother? LOL...I think I can).

Chad is a believer in the Lord and has such a big heart. He's very family oriented (we're an extremely close family). He's a WONDERFUL uncle to both of my girls. Even though at times he loves to aggrevate my oldest, Grace. They have a love/hate relationship! LOL. But they both love him dearly! :o)

Our family...see we 1 more "big" girl to even things out. ;o)

Eating dinner at the Salt Lick, which is a BBQ place.

Holding Emersyn when she was born.

She looks like she's crying in this picture...maybe he pinched her...just kidding. Not sure why she was crying...she hardly ever cries even to this day.

Grace and her Uncle Chad.

Chad will bend over backwards to help anyone.

He's very organized and likes things to be clean (You don't find this in many men). My mom taught him very well! He's passionate about the outdoors. He loves to fish and hunt! Enjoys watching/playing just about any kind of sport. He's willing to try anything.

Fishing for bass.

(I think?)

My dad, my husband Jeff and Chad fishing down at the coast.

Bird hunting.

A little baby hog that he caught while hunting.

Hog hunting up on the Red River.

I think he needs a girl that's a strong Christian, independent, loves to laugh, enjoys the outdoors, someone who is fashionable (my mom and I need someone to pass the reigns over to because from time to time he might need a little help...LOL!), someone who is somewhat frugal (Chad is a saver and plans for the future.), likes to workout, can be silly and have fun, and can just be herself.

These are just some random pictures that I thought were cute. I had so many pictures...I couldn't pick just 1 or 2. :o)

This is Chad and I.

This is one of my favorite pictures of Chad when he was little.

For some reason I think he looks like "Jerry Mouse" in this picture. LOL. :o)

Isn't he so stinkin' cute?

He was chosen to get in the dolphin pool down in Corpus Christi when we were on vacation.

Skiing in Colorado. Another one of his favorite things to do.

This was taken when, Chad, was interning (while in college) with the Houston Astros baseball team.

Hanging out with some of his friends from college.

He's on the far left.

So if you think this might be your Prince Charming or know of someone who might need a Prince Charming, please leave a comment for me and we'll go from there. :o)
