Always Outside!

We are loving this weather!  
Not too hot yet...I know its coming so we are soaking up this great weather now. 
Some of these pictures are weeks old, but I wanted to document them.  
WHAY ARE MY PICTURES POSTING THE WRONG WAY?!?!  
Eating bananas like a big girl!
having fun at Gleannloch's GO GREEN Event!
Another wonderful Sunday out at Houston Oaks.  This time with the McGraws and Gibsons!

Colt, Sage, Laney, and Landry with two of their friends.  Yummy Popsicles! 
Fishing!
Avery and her BF Lane

Her new favorite thing.  She LOVES to play in the water on the street.  She's a mess...oh well. 

What most of my mornings look like, running with the kids!

Three Zero

Sage has been telling anyone who will listen "Mommy is three zero and I'm almost three!"
 I turned 30 April 14 and was able to celebrate it with friends at Lisa's wedding and last weekend at the house with a painting party! 
 I am so blessed to be where I am at this moment. A child of God first, a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, an Aunt, a friend. So many roles, so many treasured relationships.
 Looking back on the last 10 years, I have some memories I want to forget, but mostly memories I will cherish forever. 
  All have molded me into the woman I am today. 
I want to thank my parents most of all.  I couldn't ask for more supportive, loving parents.  Without them I couldn't have gotten through the tough times.  
And when its time to celebrate they are always first at the door too!! 
 I love you Mom and Dad!
 Some of my favorite days have been captured in pictures.
They all start in 2006 when I fell in love with Ryan.  He is the start to all my happiness!!
Our first trip to Colorado. Ryan and I had just started dating

Meeting my niece Charlotte "charlie" for the first time!
Being at the birth of my niece Tatum (well not IN the room...)
There are so many more memories that I will NEVER forget. 
 Thank you to all my friends and family that played a part in making my first 30 years good ones.  
Love you all!!
I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for me for my next 30!!

Favorite new activities

I love spending one on one time with my little man. After Avery goes to bed Sage and I get about an hour to play before he goes to bed. We read, watch movies, play outside, play on the computer, or anything else he wants to do. Here is his new favorite activity!


We draw all the sports he can think of and then do names and shapes. Fun!

(this one is a golf course, can't you tell?!)


Sometimes he watches hockey with Daddy


And here is one of Avery's new favorite things, "driving"

Jumping in!

No more Mitch!

My good friend Lisa Mitchel got married this weekend. We have always called her Mitch, but now I guess we will have to call her Lisa.

WEIRD!!
The whole family enjoyed the wedding festivities because Sage was one of the ring bearers. He and Colt did such a great job! Leighton was the Flower girl and the three kids looked adorable together! We all had such a great time watching Lisa marry her best friend.

I am so happy for her!

The rehersal


getting a pep talk from the bride herself!

Saturday it was my 30th birthday!! We Celebrated at breakfast and then the Aquarium!

Avery started walking everywhere this weekend!


After a quick nap it was time for the wedding!

Sage and Leighton running to the reception. They were both yelling PARTY!!

Kinda look like a bride and groom. :)


Praying before dinner. So sweet!


So proud of my little walker!



what a fun weekend! Thanks lisa for making it so memorable! You are a beautiful bride and we love you! The kids were so worn out. They are still recovering!
