Weekend Festivities

I really hope when we get packed and settled {somewhere} that I will have more time to blog. I feel like I blog so much at one time, then don't blog again for days. We have so much packing to do, and when Avery Claire takes a nap, all we want to do is rest for a few minutes, too. So, needless to say, we aren't moving at the speed we'd like. We did get a few things moved into storage over the past couple of days {which is interesting with a 15 month old, if you haven't ever done it!

We had a busy 4th of July weekend.

Avery Claire left a flag for her Papaw Dale in honor of the 4th. There is honestly not a more peaceful place on earth than on that hill.





My college roomie, and wonderful friend, Megan, got married Saturday. Friday morning began the wedding festitivies with a brunch and a pedicure! The wedding was beautiful and so much fun. I, of course, did not take one picture. So, I stole a few from Krysta's facebook page. Thanks, Krysta - I hope you don't mind!

Megan, you were beautiful and so was your day.



Steph...I tried every trick I know. I couldn't get either of our faces to look less sweaty/greasy. I know I'll hear about it, but I had to post the picture.


No one had to tell this girl twice that the dance floor was open. Seriously, the girl loves a party. She thinks they're all for her. And who are we to tell her any different?


She did not want to dance with Tyler until he got that thing off of his head.



We had planned to come home Sunday, but decided to stay one more night and spend the 4th with family.

Thanks to creative Aunt Sheila, the kids put on a fabulous 4th of July parade. It was precious!!
Gettin' ready...






Could you not eat up that cuteness with a spoon?!


The grand marshall wasn't sure about her role, but once Sheila helped her out, she was ready to lead the way {with her diving rings in tow}.










A few more pictures from our weekend... I did not do a good picture-taking job. Sometimes it's just too hard to give up on the living to stop and take a picture.






Now we're home and trying to pack and catch up on laundry. My helper is going on a 2 hour nap right now, so that's why I get to blog today!
