Cooper and my dad, aka, Poppy.

Keaton and my mom, aka, Mimi.

This is a smile that says, "I am trying to look innocent, but I'm not."

Cooper's first time at the beach, and he was determined to keep

his toes out of the sand. Mission accomplished.

First Look at the Beach

Although they've both been to the beach several times it's always fun to see their reactions when we walk up to the beach for the first time.

Playing checkers at Cracker Barrel on our trip.

Happy 11 months!!

Our little firecracker celebrated his 11 month birthday on July 3rd. He's celebrating by pulling up on everything he can find. We had a great 4th weekend and will post some pictures soon! Happy 4th!!

Florida Trip

I have a lot of pictures from Florida, but here's one from our last day there. We always take a group shot on the beach at sunset, but this year didn't work out so well. The boys were all tired and Cooper was crying the entire way home so we skipped it and opted for a boardwalk shot right before we jumped in the car.

Derby On!

Okay so all of my pictures are long overdue, but here's one of Cooper at the first of three Derby parties we attended on Derby Day. So cute!

Preschool Graduation

Connor officially graduated from his Pre-K program at Crestwood United Methodist Church and they had a nice little ceremony for the kids. His teachers, Ms. Betty and Ms. Mary were so wonderful and he learned a ton. They surprised him with this kiss on the cheek, not sure he was excited about it!

Cake and punch time, and really that's all the kids cared about.
Michael's parents came up to watch Connor graduate.

Love the fake smile he's sportin' here with me.

School picnic

Balloon Boys

Tuesday nights at the Goose Creek Diner are fun times for the boys. There's a balloon man who will make you anything you want. Keaton asked for a superhero and got Mr. Incredible, and because it was Derby time Connor wanted a horse. The balloon man came through on both.

Connor and Keaton had Derby races at school so we went on the hunt for stick horses, mission accomplished.
