4 Months of Catching Up

I am not surprised that it has been 4 months since my last blog post but a little birdie ((cough))((Dad))((cough)) has sent me emails reminding me that I need to update the blog. Since May 2011, we have been enjoying time with our friends, birthday's, family events and vacations.
In June, I celebrated my Birthday with friends the weekend before at Megan's house Megan was so sweet and made me feel extremely special. She prepared tacos with all the fixings and strawberry shortcake. Megan even had two of my favorite drinks, fresh mojitos and Stella Rosa wine.

On my actual birthday, Jim and I went to dinner with Stephanie, Ryan and Kennedy as well as one of my best friend since high school, Justin. We went to Don Jose's to enjoy my favorites. Chips n' Salsa and Shrimp Fajitas. Deeee-lish!

For Father's Day, we sepnt the day with Jim's Dad and the rest of the family. The kids came over as well so we had a great time swimming and messing around. We love hanging out with those kids. We also got to call my Dad to say Happy Father's Day though a phone call is not the same as seeing him in person.





In July, Chris and Gwen came to the house for the weekend. I got an above ground pool for my birthday so we swam a lot. Gwen and I went to the fabric store and about buttons, ribbon, lace and fabric to make headbands which are the newest crazy. It was a lot of fun. I also tought Chris a "Mitchell Tradition"... eating watermelon with salt. He loved it!


Towards the end of July I fly out to Alabama to celebrate Jacob's first birthday and Brian's 30th Birthday. We had an absolute blast!! We had the whole family there except Jim. Maybe next time... So, becky and Stacey did an amazing job at putting together this birthday party. I am still amazed at all the creativity that went into the planning.




In August, We celebrated Stephanie's Birthday at where elsse... The Brandin Iron. Ahhhh, the Brandin Iron. That place never changes.
