Happy 10th Anniversary!

My parents spent Memorial Day weekend at our house while Brooks and I spent the weekend at Amelia Island celebrating our 10th anniversary. It was a quick, but relaxing and fun trip! Here are some pictures from the weekend...

Cook Kids
(Nana and Papa found this on craigslist and couldn't resist...)

Fun at the waterpark with Nana and Papa

I love this guy and our crazy life together! 


We took lots of selfies...







Coming home from a little getaway is never fun, 
but these smiles made it a lot easier...

Beach Day

First year they both made the mile without me having to piggy back anyone!

We had such a great beach day on Sunday! Lily's friend Abbie happened to be there and she was so excited to play with her outside of school. The weather was perfect and the tidal pool was full of fun things to look at including starfish, sand dollars and dolphins! The only thing I could have done without were the jellyfish, so wish I would have brought my good camera for this beach day!!

Mother's Day

On Friday I was able to sneak away from school to go to Lily's Mother's Day performance. The class sang some songs and served us muffins, it was very cute! This year my planning period is during Grace's lunch time, so I try and eat with her once a week at school. Love our lunch dates!

Lily had to answer some questions about me - too funny!! 

Grace did too:
I really am going to try and get better 
about getting her places on time...

Love this face!

Melt my Heart...

There is nothing better than being a mom to these two amazing girls!!

More Soccer Pics...

Soccer season is officially over. I have really enjoyed watching Grace's team! They only scored one goal this season and didn't even come close to winning a game, but they had lots of fun and never gave up trying. Grace loved playing her friend Ella's team and I love all the pictures her mother (who is a photographer) took. Lily wasn't sold on soccer this season, but Grace wants to join again (she wants to do it all, so we will see what we can work out for the fall).

Grace and Ella

She has come a long way this season...


Kindergarten Friends


We loved having Aunt Sallie and Neil 
help cheer on the team (Sallie even made signs).

 We celebrated the last game with a pizza lunch...

That night we went to a Battery game to cheer on coach Taylor. He has been so patient with all the girls and taught them a lot about the game. The girls yelled for him the whole game, it was too cute! After the game they got autographs from all the players, such a fun night...

Soccer Season

Soccer is still keeping us pretty busy on the weekends. The girls are enjoying it and I think they both like practice better than the actual game...

The Dragons



 Nana and Papa came for a visit and loved 
being able to watch both the girls play...



Team Thunder

You have to hand it this group of girls for NEVER giving up and always having positive attitudes even though they have lost every game so far. They are learning a lot about the game, improving their skills and making friendships along the way...

Easter Weekend

We spent the weekend in Columbia with the Rogers. We had family pictures on Saturday at Mimi and Booker's house, can't wait to see the pics that the photographer took of everyone. Here are a few that we took with my camera afterwards...

Our Family

Love these Big Girls

Aunt Sallie and all the Girls

Flower Child

After the photo shoot the girls we all had fun playing outside and having an outdoor dance party. 
The Easter bunny loved the food that Grace left...

They LOVED their baskets...

Play-Doh Eggs

and the bunnies that are left for them every year.

Sweet Girls

That tooth was hanging by a thread in this pic and is finally out!


We spend Easter morning at church, the girls had fun 
at the egg hunt and loved having Aunt Kelly and uncle Clark 
as their teachers in children's church.






Thanks Mimi and Booker for all the delicious food, it was a great weekend!
