Portraits

OMG...we finally got the photos back from Anitsdels. They do amazing work! Not that my kids need much help looking adorable. LOL
Feast your eyes upon the best looking duo in our family :)

Jolee's Haircut!

Yay! She finally cut her hair! I was expecting to see just a trim, but she walked through the door with several inches off. Doesn't she look beautiful!?!? Loves it!

This weekend was so much fun! One of my most wonderful friends in the world brought her family (Kenny and Shayla) down for a long weekend at Key West Plains. We got to hang out, swim, drive go-karts, go out to dinner, cook out, get pedicures, and just have a great time. Josie got the grand tour of West Plains, and got to see what life is like for us down here. My Aunt Donna had a class reunion this weekend, so her and her boyfriend Stuart stayed with us, and also my sister Emily. Sunday morning we all drove down to Gastons for brunch and see some beautiful surroundings. We can't wait for them all to come back again! :)
We missed you Lindsey! :)

The kids waiting for our table at Fisherman's Wharf, our new fav!!!

Brady being goofy

She wasn't about to touch the crab! She waited till dinnertime for that...LOL

Jolee got to drive the glass bottomed boat :)

We found a walking park that is so cool, it's named after our amazing Jolee!

Our Vacay Was Destin-y! LOL

We just got back from our family trip to Destin! It was so hard to come back home to Missouri...nah, just kidding! We did have a blast though. We had such a good time showing the kids how much fun you can have at the beach and having new experiences. We found a pearl in some oysters we ate, we went parasailing, saw dolphins, made sandcastles, ate AMAZING seafood (Jolee found out she loves crab now!), and all kinds of other stuff. I'll post more pics here shortly!

Daddy and Brady in the ocean!

He helped bury her!


Halfway through the sandcastle

Trying to figure out what he thinks of sand

We hadn't been there for 2 seconds and she's already making a sandcastle!

2 Guys and A Jet

This morning, we got up SUPER early to go to the airport and watch Dad and Brian go flying in the jet. I think Dad had a good time, so I guess now it's my turn!
