Morgan's Sports Bar and Grill

Trey and I were in Corpus at the end of August for our engagement party and for the grand opening of Morgan's Sports Bar & Grill. My mom and dad, along with Buck, Laura, Mary, and friends have been working so hard this summer to get the bar up and running and they did it just in time for football season! The bar is awesome. It fills a much needed void in the downtown area of Corpus as the first and only sports bar. As you can see from above flat screen TV's cover every wall, and they can have as many different games on as they have TVs! This is really going to come in handy considering that every boy in my family is obsessed with a different football team. You can find Buck and Mary behind the bar, Laura waiting tables, and John Sixta in the kitchen cooking up bar snacks. I personally can't wait to try the Irish eggrolls which Laura assures me are delicious! I am so proud of my family and am sure this place is going to be huge a success! Go Steelers! Go Dolphins! Go Cowboys!

Engagement Party

At the loft before heading to the Island

                                        
The beautiful cake Lissa had made for the party.


My mom's good friend's Lissa and Barbara threw Trey and me the most beautiful engagement party in Corpus. Everything was incredible. The party was at Lissa and Rolf's house on the Island and it was a beautiful evening on the water. Lissa and Barbara went all out, cooking an amazing buffet, decorating the house with Lissa's adorable vintage cake toppers, and ordering us the most beautiful cake. I have decided that I don't want to have a traditional wedding cake at our reception, so they got us one for our engagement party! The best part about the cake is that it was a delicious as it was pretty. For everyone that missed out, don't worry; the same baker (Gary Holman) is also creating a dessert bar for our reception, so there will be plenty of her yummy goodies for you all to try! Trey and I are so thankful to Lissa and Barbara for all their hard work. And also to everyone who came down to Corpus for the party. We know a lot of you had to travel and we really appreciate you making the effort to come celebrate with us. We can't wait for the wedding!
