Happy Birthday Sister!

Today is my sister's birthday.  In true sister style, we've been celebrating all weekend :)

We decided to make our weekend at the lake a little longer by going up on Thursday night after work...or after play, for those of us who aren't working right now.
We had a good time riding in the boat and playing in the water, and pretty much had the lake to ourselves.



Little lake bug...loves all things to do with water


After a yummy meal that Steven prepared for us, Fulton provided some after dinner entertainment with his smooth dancing skills.  He had us all rolling...he is too funny!


Ice cream cake and cookie cake to celebrate Kristen's birthday.

Then tonight we had some Mexican to celebrate on her actual birthday.


My little man after my own heart with his love of salsa like his Aunt Keri :)

Fun weekend celebrating sister's 31 years of life!

Christie's Baby Brunch

This past Friday, Mere met me in Birmingham and we hit the road for Mississippi to visit our dear friend Christie (and Raylin and Brigg).


Saturday morning we showered Christie with a baby brunch at Table 100.  Such a nice place with fabulous food...I recommend the shrimp and grits :)



Huntley got some super cute stuff...cute clothes, diaper bag, skinny jeans, matching outfit for big sis and little sis, not to mention a oh so cute car seat cover (bottom right picture).


Sweet friends of Christie's...Amy, Mere, me, and Mary Katherine


After some shopping around town after the brunch, Brigg picked us up in the boat, and road around in the reservoir, then stopped at a restaurant on the water for dinner.  Even though we had a terrible experience at the restaurant, it was so much fun hanging out together.
Love these girls and cannot wait to meet sweet Huntley!

Birthdays & Father's Day

Lots of birthday celebrating around here lately, and more to come...

We celebrated Missy's birthday last weekend at their house with some yummy food and fun friends.


 Matt's birthday...also known as Flag Day...was this week.  We had dinner at a Japanese restaurant and Fulton was in awe of everything going on around him.  We wasn't so sure about the fire, but he clapped in the end, so I guess he enjoyed it.



"What is going on here?"



Some birthday cake and presents back and Mom & Dad's after dinner


Today, we had Father's Day dinner at Kristen & Matt's house.
Fulton is all about reading books and he will sit with anyone that will read to him.  Won't be long until he is reading to us :)

Color Me Rad

Laura and I participated in the Color Me Rad 5k this past weekend.  She mentioned this to me several months ago and talked me into doing this, telling me we would have several months to prepare and be ready.  We needless to say, we did about as much walking as we did running.  I probably weighed her down and kept her from running more than we did...but we had a blast doing it!
Luckily, it was very overcast, but it was still hot!


Here's our before and after shot




The whole place was just a big cloud of colored smoke

If felt like we got doused a good bit in color, but after running into some other friends there, it looks like we missed a few color stations :) 


Afterwards, we headed up to Beef's for a bite to eat and more and more race participants kept showing up that most of the patio was covered in "color".
Hopefully we can participate in the next one that comes to town!
