The big "2"

My youngest turned 2 while we were visiting my family during the Holidays so we made a mini celebration and he was able to enjoy his mini cake. He is so much fun, and just watching him makes me smile!

Christmas Vacation In the South Part II

Here are pictures from another family get-together in which there were 40+ people in attendance. What a wonderful time and it was great visiting with all of our relatives. Did I mention that the potluck style meal was INCREDIBLE. John and I were talking about how that meal was one of the best meals that we have had in a VERY long time. There is no place like the South.

Christmas Vacation In the South Part I

Here are some random photos from my Grandmother's House as we celebrated Christmas together as a family. It was so nice to spend time with everyone, and always food was the central focus :). We can't wait to go back!

P R E C I O U S!

I have to say my heart dropped when I walked into the room and say Addi with my niece and nephew sleeping soundly together. How sweet is this picture. Made me miss my family even more and to think of all the slumber parties we could have if we were all close. They were on each others heels the whole time we were there, literally!

El Porton

We were all excited to eat at El Porton, one of our favorite's. They have the best chips and salsa, among other things :). We had so much fun visiting with our favorite people and was able to do it all at once. This will definitely have to be a tradition every year we go back to the South. Thanks El Porton, you made us proud!

Huey's and Pottery Barn Outlet

This was day two in Memphis, we ate at John's favorite restaurant(Huey's) and was able to visit my favorite store (Pottery Barn). Addi had to wear my nephew's boots and Ethan had a rough day! I have to say Huey's made me smile because they added a new item to their menu; Fried Dill Pickles, yum yum!

Trip to the South

Our trip to the South was highlighted by our favorite places to eat! The day we arrived, John was gracious enough to let me eat at McAllisters. They have the best sweet tea and their California Veggie wrap and Titanic Spuds are GREAT! Here are a few pictures from that night, including Addi and Jules feeling the need to dress as Princesses!

Laundry Mat Shoot

I was going through some of my photo folders and remembered that I had not posted any of the Laundry Mat photos. My kiddos were ready for this day... I think :) They are so much fun lately, I don't want time to go by too fast.

Annual Boy's Christmas Party

Blaise had his annual Christmas Party with all of his friends this year and again, it was so much fun. Addi even had a friend over this year. It is so neat to watch all of these boys grow, I can remember like yesterday when this group was in Kindergarten!
