July 4th Weekend

We went to Columbus over the 4th weekend to celebrate Laura Lea turning 2 and Allie turning 16! On Saturday we celebrated Laura Lea with a Elmo/Watermelon birthday party! Amy had all kinds of yummy food and water slides for the kids.

First trip to Jellystone!

On June 23rd, I packed up and went to Orange Beach for a long girls weekend with my Mom, sister and aunt. We had such a great, relaxing weekend full of girl talk, eating, drinking and pool time. We didn't even go to the beach the whole time. We slept in, exercised, had brunch, lounged by the pool and then went to dinner both full days we were there. It was great! We don't get to have a lot of time like that together because we usually have kids and other people (men) running around!




Audrey Grace reading the note I left her

While I was gone, Ryan was babysitting! I knew he would be fine and I was not worried at all. The Rowland's asked if we wanted to go to Jellystone on Saturday. Since I was going to be out of town I assumed Ryan wouldn't dream of doing that. Wrong. He was all for it. I was so excited that he wanted to take her. It made me proud! I sound like his mom or something but I just thought it was so great he would do something like that without me there. I missed them, but he and AG had some good bonding time and he got to change the dirty diapers for once!!

Father's Day Weekend

We had a very busy Father's Day weekend this year. On Saturday we went to Frances Ferrell's, our neighbor, First Birthday Party! Audrey Grace and I had so much fun meeting new friends and playing with old ones!

They loved watching the "big girls"



Frances was a little unsure about her cupcake






Not Audrey Grace!






We came home and Mr. Butch, Sue, Huck, Cole and Hank were at our house waiting patiently to see us! We grilled out, played, and talked until way too late. Huck and AG are close in age and beginning to pay a little more attention to each other, so it is always fun to see them interact. Cole and Hank played all kind of ball you can think of, football, baseball, dodge ball...



Dru and Hunt joined us later in the night after Hunt played in a baseball game. Sunday we woke up and had Father's Day! Mark, Dru and the boys came back over Sunday morning for a yummy pancake breakfast, fried chicken and veggies for lunch with lemon meringue pie for dessert! We ate way too much but had the best time visiting and playing with all the boys in our family!
