Mae 18 months

Over the weekend Jess, Doug and I got together and took Macayla's 18 month pictures. This girl is crazy, non-stop, on the GO!! Pretty much like Ella. So taking her pictures I knew was going to be tricky. Mae did a great job and she's becoming quite a big girl....very interested in everything around her and full of energy. Hope you guys like the pictures!! Thanks for the ice cream too!!! :)

NASCAR....Bristol Style!!!

What a great trip Joe and I had!! We went to the night race in Bristol and it was incredible. My first NASCAR experience and I'll be going back for sure!! I'm not a real big fan of NASCAR but it's usually on the TV when it's on, and I'll watch some here and there. But it's a completely different feeling to actually be in the race and feel those cars! Soooo cool!!!

Fishing Derby Champ......

Check out my little Fishin' Derby Champ!! While Evan golfed with Joe and I on Saturday, Ella hung out at the campground with Pat (sitter) and Kurt (sitter's son) and she won the Fishing Derby by pulling in the biggest bass.....14". She even has the trophy to prove it!! Too cute. The picture below was taken on a cell phone, so look at it from far away!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Evan!!!

Check out my adorable 3 year old!! We had such a good time at the birthday party. Running in the sprinkler, shooting water guns, throwing water balloons, and swimming. What a perfect day for getting wet!! The kids had a blast and Evan got a lot of cool gifts. Thanks to all who came out and celebrated with Evan....he has the greatest friends and family!! And thank you all for the wonderful gifts. And thanks to Stephanie for the awesome cakes!
