Blog catch up! August party 2012 at the lake.

Noodle fight!  I am pretty sure this was started by Wade!

Good times in the kiddie pool!

We had the best afternoon at my family's annual August party.  Nichole and Jason hosted us all at their house on Lake Hiwassee.  We had to leave before the swimming in the lake began, but we still had a great time with the fam!

Blog catch up! Branson vacation 2012.

Our favorite thing to do in Branson is get out of town and go hiking!  Hayden was so brave this year and wanted to do everything his daddy did.

This was our first time to visit a Lego Land, and we had so much fun.

Dino putt putt.

For our second summer, we spent a week in Branson thanks to the in-laws time share!  We had a really wonderful time.  There is seriously something for everyone of every age in Branson.  This year we went to Silver Dollar City for the first time and loved it!  We also did the "Ride the Ducks" in Branson which was way more fun than I thought it would be.

Baby boy Gibson

I am so happy that this little boy is here!  He is so sweet and so adorable.  He had a hard time taking pictures, so we are having session number 2 later this week.

Memorial weekend 2012

The boys are big enough to drive the car!

Cousins having breakfast on the deck.

We had a wonderful Memorial weekend at the farm.  Lots of relaxation, hanging with family, playing games, and trips to the cemetary.

Almost 2 photo shoot

It is so much fun to photograph toddlers, but you better have your running shoes on!  This little man is one of my best friend's sons, and he was on the go the entire time.  I love his bright blue eyes!

4 year old photo shoot

Man I love this kid!  We are all so lucky to have him in our lives.   He is the sweetest, and most positive   child that I have ever met, and a joy to take pictures of.

Harper came dressed and ready for the party!

The dinosaur tails were a huge hit.

Train ride.

Petting the animals.

We had a blast at the Orr Farm for the 4th birthday party.  We played in the giant sand box, rode the train, pet the animals, rode the carousel, had pizza, hot dogs, and cake.  Thank you family and friends for coming and making it so special!

What's growing in our garden??

 Lettuce and spinach

Blackberry shrubs

Squash and tomato plants

We are enjoying the most delicious salads from our garden this spring!  I can't wait until we have some tomatoes, green pepper, and onion to add to our greens.  We also have apples growing on our apple tree, blackberries, squash, jalapenos, and poblano peppers.  We will have too much for our family to eat, so let me know if you want some.

Mel maternity sneak peek!

Thanks for letting me get some maternity pic practice Mel!!  I had so much fun with you guys and can't wait until the new addition is here.
