Tea party for 2...

Avery and her friend Hannah invited us mommies to join them for a "tea party" today in the Alice in Wonderland room at the Tea House. This place is every girls' dream room!! We enjoyed a yummy lunch and played dress up with boas and flowery hats! Here are a few pictures from our afternoon.


Lovely little friends!!!

This is a girl who wants her cake and to eat it to!!!

Let's play ball...

Reece had his first t-ball game on Saturday! It was so much fun to see him out on the field and at bat. He was the first at bat for his team and he made a base hit! He is in a league called Stewards of the Game with all 5 & 6 year olds. We are excited for our first sport and are looking forward to a great fall ball season. Enjoy the pics of our little player!!

This is his "baseball ready" stance!!

At bat...WOW base hit...way to go buddy!

Daddy was at the game to cheer our little player on and help coach.

Back to school...

Today was Reece's 1st day back to school after a fun and eventful summer. Reece is joining the TK tigers classroom at HPC preschool this year. He will be going to school 5 days a week in preparation for kindergarten next year. We are so excited to be back at HPC and looking forward to another awesome year filled with new teachers, friends, faith, fun and lots of new learning's.

Alaskan Adventures...

Reece, Avery, and I enjoyed a beautiful 2 weeks in Alaska to visit my family. Our time was packed with climbing aboard the Alaskan railroad on a sight-seeing tour from Anchorage to Seward, a day at the zoo visiting all the Alaskan animals, a fun-filled day at the fair, exploring the Sea Life Center, lots of playdates with the cousins, and of coarse a day fishing on the Kenai River. We saw lots of wildlife too...moose, eagles, and bears oh my!! The kids loved all the animals. Thank you to my fam for showing us such a great time. Here are a few pics of the trip. I will post more pictures on facebook too! Enjoy :)

Avery's 2nd birthday!

We celebrated Avery's 2nd birthday with a small group of friends and neighbors. All the kids enjoyed Kelly's homemade chocolate cupcakes. It was a great evening of cupcakes, candles, and presents. What more could a girl ask for?

Happy birthday sweet girl...we love you!!!

She loved her balloons!!!

Yummy cake daddy....more pease is all she kept saying!

Mamma green-thumb...

I hate to brag but I am in love with my pots this year and had to show them off!!! My girlfriend calls me "mamma green-thumb"!! Which I am not...but I have learned you can grow anything in the South thanks to heat, humidity, and a little help from my buddy called miracle grow. Enjoy the flower pics!
