Kickoff to Summer!

We had a great Memorial Day yesterday. A friend invited us over for the day so we got to go swimming, had a cookout and topped it off with Just Dance and Cranium. Perfect start to Summer!

Rockin out to Just Dance (Yes, I know how we look!)

Chilling out with a movie


The girls decided to play dress up and put on a little show. It was way cute!

Graduation Day!

My baby girl graduated pre-school today! I can't believe she's done already. It's been a quick school year! She was so excited to go today and had a great time. I asked her if she was sad that school was over and she said "no way, I'm ready to go to Kindergarten". Sigh...

By the way, her school is called "Little Hands Preschool"...hence the reason for the handprint shirts.


Getting her "Diploma"

Sweet kids...she wanted to make sure that he didn't get lost on the way to the park. Makes my heart melt!

Virginia Trip

Phillip's brother's oldest daughter Abbie turned 8 last week so she was able to get baptized yesterday. We were so excited to go up to Virginia since it was the 1st time in a very long time that all of Phillip's family got together. We had a blast and it was really special to be able to see her get baptized all together as a family. Afterward, we went to this beautiful park right outside of Richmond for a picnic and it could not have been a more beautiful day.

Family Photo after the Baptism

Cooper was obsessed with feeding the ducks. He quacked right along with them every time. It was too cute.

He couldn't quite get up this bridge by himself so he kept peeking at us to try to get us to help him up. We just laughed at him and took a picture ; )

Just us gals chatting it up

Loving the see-saw

The whole fam watching and feeding the ducks

No words for this picture. Love it!

Addison and cousin Noah...only a few months apart and very cute





He was obsessed with the frog when everyone else was holding it but got a little freaked out when it was his turn ; )


Loving the frog

He kept trying to get in the water...really freaked me out but he didn't get too far

My husband brag

So, I have to have a little brag on my husband. For Mother's Day, he picked out some amazing presents all by himself and let me say that I was very impressed. He was SO excited about what he got and kept telling me every day the week before Mother's Day that he wanted me to open them because he just couldn't wait. He did a great job. I love that he will actually pick out clothes for me because he really does know what I like so I've never really been disappointed in what he's gotten (except for some cat pajamas for my first birthday we were together ; )

Anyway, he picked out this dress,

these earrings,
And these shoes to go with it. (They have little purple squares on them)
I can't believe he actually coordinated everything together. Like I said, I was very impressed and I can see why he was so excited to give them to me!

He even wrapped it perfectly (which he was also very excited about) because he knows how much I love pretty wrapped presents
