Happy Birthday, Graycen!

Our sweet little ladybug is already one! Oh, the time goes by so fast. We celebrated Graycen's first birthday in two parts - one in late June because Ryan had to be out of town for business on her actual birthday, and one party at my family's cabin on the Tennessee River in Alabama during the 4th of July weekend. Below are some of the pictures of her ladybug themed parties. I made this fruit bouquet and it was super easy.................Graycen loved her first taste of frosting and ate her birthday cupcake in about a minute.

It's About Time

I know it's been a while since I updated the pictures............so get ready for lots of them!! Here are some pictures from a trip to the Florida Keys we took with Ryan's family in early June. The boys had so much fun with their cousins, Nicholas and Kaitlyn, and even got to sleep in the "Big Kids" room that had two sets of bunk beds. They thought they were really something. It was a great and relaxing time with family.

The boys thought meeting Spiderman at a local festival was the coolest...

Until they met Batman!

Easter Weekend

We spent Easter weekend with my family in Alabama and the kids had a great time. The boys went to an egg hunt at Papaw and Nana's church, and hunted eggs with Gran-Gran. Graycen got her first Easter basket and wore this beautiful dress that my Aunt Danna made for her. It was a great weekend aside from the fact that Ryan had a scratched cornea on Easter and spent the day in a great amount of pain (you'll notice he's not in the family photo).........but not to worry, he made a full recovery soon after the weekend.

Oh, the Places We've Been

Connor and Spencer were the ring and Bible bearers in my cousin Denay's wedding over Easter weekend. They did such a great job (with the help of some candy and bubble gum bribery) during the wedding and were so cute in their little tuxedos. We had a great time with family and were happy to welcome Matthew to the family............Congratulations, Guys!!

Wouldn't you trust these two on one of the biggest days of your life???

Since Ryan has been traveling a bit more these days, the kiddos and I spent a week with Ryan's parents (a.k.a. Mimi and Poppy). Connor and Spencer had a blast going to new playgrounds, decorating Easter eggs, playing pizza chef and visiting the library for Story Time. They were so sweet to help me out for the week..............Graycen also learned to sit on her own while we were there. Here are a few pictures from the visit.......
