The Grounds to be!

Saturday, November 30th we threw my sister and Josh a wedding shower! Julie and I hosted it and we surprised Lindsey with a little girls gathering at Julie's house before dinner and out for the night! It was so much fun preparing for it! As most of you know, my sister rocked my entire wedding and planned the whole thing. I am forever grateful for her and I wish I was talented enough to plan hers! Instead I'm just trying to do my part of being a kick arse MOH :)

I had her over to get ready at my house with a little strawberries and champagne!

Cheers!!!

This was right when Lindsey walked in Julie's house and had no idea what was going on!

I love this! She had no clue!!!

Happiness fo sho!

The invitation!

Cousins!

The spread & my "G" moss I'm pretty proud of! ha




Opening presents!

Cheers to one amazing & beautiful bride!!!

I think she's glowing just a bit :)


Of course we had to have some fun with a question game we had asked Josh the answers to! Hehe!

We then headed over to Salsa and met the guys for some more fun! Personalized cupcakes from Miss Muffin'! Yummo!

The main folks of the night!




I had different pictures of them throughout the tables with hydrangeas!


Grayson helping open presents!

Beer & cupcakes! Nom nom


Barker smooches :)

She sure loves her Graybear and he adores his Lindz!

What an awesome night celebrating these two!! I'm so happy for my sister. I know you pray for your own husband, but I've prayed for hers too! God sure did bless us with Joshua!! We love you both so much!! 4/12/14 get readddy!!


Happy Birthday Daddy!

The Friday after Thanksgiving was Chris' birthday! So of course I had to throw him a little celebration! The Tigers played that day so it was a good day in itself!


Grayson requested we get Daddy a balloon!

Gooo Tigers!!

I can't believe my big baby is 34! Wow! Times flying these days...

Grayson ready to sing Happy Birthday!

He absolutely loves birthdays... we would probably sing this song to someone in our house everyday if we'd let him!

And of course Grayson gets to blow:)

I love my little family! Happy Birthday Daddy, you're the best!!


Super blessed to have these boys!

April 2014 here we come!!!!


Happy Birthday to this guy! Haha!

What great times with fabulous people celebrating an amazing guy!! Cheers!!!

Thanksgiving Extravaganza!

My sister and Josh came in town for Thanksgiving so we had a jam packed week! It's always so fun when they are in town... I wish they could come in town every holiday!

Lindz decided to go ahead and bring Christmas gifts since we were all together! Grayson got some fun bath toys!

Getting spoiled by his Lindz with some Adidas gear!

Dada got spoiled too!

The last time Lindsey was in town she played this airplane game with Gray where they ran around the house and crash landed in the floor. It was so cute, the very first night Grayson said "Let's play airplane!" to Lindsey. We were so confused... he remembered!


He also got his own microphone... right up his alley!

My little rockstar in the making:)

Giving Josh his KU blanket.

Just what the boys needed!!

The next morning he started the day out right with some 'Slap Yo Momma' Pie! It was yummy to say the least!

Just a little Thanksgiving Day parade action while terrorizing Daddy with blocks!


Off to Bic Bic & Papa's we went for Thanksgiving Lunch!

Megan giving Grayson a hard time saying that is "her" David. Grayson tends to think everybody is "mine".


My boys;)

"His" Papa!!

Poses don't last long that is for sure!

The best family pic we could get... it's quite impossible these days!

Then off to Nonna & Pop's we went for Turkey Dinner!

Having her here makes the holidays so much better!

A lil photo op on the front porch!

"Look, say cheese!"


He's just like his Momma when it comes to black olives! Hehe!

Who me?!

Copper is always pooped when there are multiple family functions in a row! Of course she's part of the fam & comes along for them all!

Graysons version of "turkey dinner" haha!

My favorites!

I made this plaque for Lindsey and surprised her with it! I am pretty positive it will be the only one I ever make... talk about time consuming and detailed, but it was worth it for the beautiful bride! It's a mix of all of their first dates, special places, wedding details, etc!

He looves his Lin Lin!

The turkey carver!

It was a day to remember! We felt thankful indeed:)
