Memorial Weekend was so busy for us, a good busy. We had an amazing weekend. Hampton and I had a play date with a dear friend of mine and her baby boy who is one month older than Hamp. We had the opportunity to catch up and the boys had a blast.

We drove to Dothan on Friday night to my cousin’s graduation. It is that time of year, graduations, weddings and birthday parties galore. We are so proud of her! She is the tenth and last grandchild in our family to graduate from high school.

Saturday we attended a crawfish boil. It was a lot of fun. I skipped the crawfish part because I just can’t seem to eat my food when I see it crawling around before it’s cooked. Gross. We enjoyed the pool for a while. It was Hampton’s first time in the pool. He loved it…for a while and then got tired.

Don’t you love his socks? That’s America, folks!

Sunday we took a break from festivities and I caught up on some housework. Laundry is so much fun!

Monday we had pizza and laid by the pool all day. We played dominoes with my family for a while that night. I spent some much-needed time with my family and saw great friends as well. It was the perfect holiday weekend.

I went to the beach for my cousin’s Bachelorette party this past weekend. When you put us together, there is nothing but fun and good memories in the making. Although it rained most of the weekend, we did get a little beach time in. We shopped till we dropped and ate…and ate and ate.

Once we got to PCB, we went straight to Margaritaville, wore funny balloon hats (I didn’t get a picture of myself, darn) and got our Parrotheads on. I also enjoyed a Cheeseburger in Paradise that was as good as always.

Ryan and I have been so blessed with an amazing church family, family and friends. We have been so overwhelmed by their support, prayers and beautiful gifts over the past few months. Our little boy is already so blessed and has more clothes than I do. Our first shower was held in our church building and honored us and 3 other couples. It was a very special night.

Silly friends!

My cousin actually had her baby 4 days after this picture was taken! We are so excited to welcome Natalie to our growing family! I’ll post about our third shower once I get some photos back from it. 🙂

This past weekend was amazing. My best friend since kindergarten had her first baby! Baby B is the most precious thing I’ve ever laid eyes on (other than my nephews of course). It is so hard to believe that he is finally here. I can’t get enough of him and those bright blue eyes. I met him about 2 hours after he was born and he was so wide eyed. I’ve never seen a newborn that awake so soon after birth. Congratulations to my beautiful friend and her husband! I’m so happy for them.

On Saturday, we had a huge yard sale at our house. It was a huge help in getting us to clean out our house to help make room for baby Cantrell. We are turning our office into the nursery because we felt that it was best to keep the guest room since we have people come stay with us often. The yard sale was a success and the extra $300 made it well worth it. Later that afternoon, we spent some time at Ryan’s uncle’s farm with his family. It is always good to see all of them. My oldest nephew is walking now and it is probably the cutest thing I’ve seen in a while. He is everywhere!

Sunday after church, we headed to Dothan (south Alabama) for my cousin’s baby shower. She is the cutest pregnant girl I’ve ever seen. She is very petite and all belly. She is due in May and I can’t wait to meet baby G! He is going to be very spoiled for sure. Alesha received some wonderful gifts.

God is so good. I can’t thank Him enough for this weekend full of blessings.

Hello loves! This past weekend, Ryan and I traveled to Huntsville (north Alabama) for our good friend’s wedding. Ryan was a groomsman and looked pretty smokin’ hot if I do say so myself.

It was such a wonderful day getting to watch two friends say their vows in front of loved ones. It was very emotional and one of the sweetest weddings I’ve ever been to. We were able to spend time with friends we have not seen in a while which was nice.

Just before the wedding began, I received a phone call from my cousin (who is more like a sister) with some pretty exciting news! Zana is engaged!!! Her and Landon have been together for nearly 5 years, so it is about time he put a ring on it! I am so proud and absolutely thrilled for them!

On Sunday, I attended my best friend’s baby shower. She is due in less than 4 weeks now! I can’t wait to meet that sweet baby!
