A little sand never hurt anyone...

Happy 4th of July!

This past week we went to Sunset Beach with Matt's family for our annual 4th of July trip. The entire family was there & we had a great time together hanging out at the pool and on the beach! When we were not at the pool or on the beach, we were hanging out at Oma & Opa's house or Aunt Lynn & Uncle Sandy's house. We played a lot of Corn Hole and ate a lot of really good food.

On Thursday morning, the guys all went deep sea fishing. And even though the all had a good time, they unfortunately, only caught 4 small fish, but we still had a fish fry for dinner. After dinner, BB insisted on a family photo shoot.
One of BB's crazy ideas...believe it or not, these are ALL BB's Hawaiian print shirts!


On Friday, we headed out to the beach along with ALL of our stuff (2 huge tents, chairs for 15 people, 2 umbrellas, beach towels, bags, toys for the kids, and sevearl large coolers). We spent about 3 hours playing on the beach and Brayden even had his very own little pool under the tent to play in. After cleaning up from the beach, we got ready for a cookout with Papa & Grandma Nita over at Aunt Lynn & Uncle Sandy's house.

Before we could make it to the cookout, this is what happened after a long day on the beach & no nap...

Hanging out with Grandma Nita

After the cookout, it was time for corn hole and fireworks in Calabash.

Just about asleep during the fireworks.


On Saturday, we went shopping at the outlets, out to eat at a big family, & back out to the beach. I will post photos from pool and beach soon - check back in a few days!

Photo update

These are all from the past week or so.

This one is blurry because everytime Brayden sees me, he starts flapping his arms up & down like a bird!!

Cute little feet. They are almost always crossed like this :)

His new thing...holding on when the handle is up on the carseat. The daycare teachers said that he does it in the swing & bouncy seat too. Too funny!

We finally got him to leave the sunglasses on long enough to take a photo!

New favorite toy (it's an old remote)!

I'm Flying!!

How's this thing work??

Happy Father's Day/Matt's Birthday Weekend

Matt's 31st Birthday was on Sunday as well as it being Father's Day! To celebrate, TR came over & keep Brayden so that Matt & I could go to dinner for his birthday. TR always gets some great photos so I left the camera out for her to play around with. Unfortunately, Brayden was a bit fussy, but she still got a few great shots.


We had a great dinner and Matt's mom had made 3 cakes. One for each occasion that we were celebrating!

Brayden enjoyed playing the piano for the first time...maybe he is going to take after most of Matt's family and be a great musician :)


Brayden also got to spend some quality time with his dad, BB, and Paw.





Overall, it was a great, but busy day!

Summertime fun!!

Today we took Brayden swimming at our friend Missy's house! Even though the water was a little chilly at first, Brayden seemed to enjoy floating in the water & eventually decided to splash & kick some. We are looking forward to many more swimming adventures this summer at our community pool & at the beach!!!

Really not sure about this....


This is LOTS of fun, even though I am a little bit cold!



THANKS MISSY!

Horses & Swings

Last weekend we went to Grammy & Paw's house. They had 2 surprises for Brayden when we arrived!!

1) They had gotten out my old rocking horse (the kind with the springs) for Brayden to ride.
2) They had bought him a swing & had it ready to go in the back yard for Saturday.

Brayden had a blast Friday night riding the horse! He was still a bit small to ride by himself, so someone had to hold onto him the entire time, but he laughed & giggled & squealed the entire time!

Look Mommy...NO HANDS!!!!



Ok Grammy, I am tried of hiding this horse.


On Saturday, Brayden enjoyed the swing for a while. This was really his first experience in a swing (he sat in a swing at the park about 2 months ago, but we didn't really push him much). At first, Brayden wasn't very sure about the swing,



but after a few minutes he really warmed up to it & ended up LOVING it!




A couple of things to note before watching this video...1) I am no good at actually recording videos and 2) this is my first time editing, adding text, music etc to a video. Hopefully, I will improve in both areas.

Thanks for my new swing and "new" horse Grammy & Paw!!! I had a blast last weekend with you!

Visit with the Swanners

On Saturday, Brayden & I went to visit Julie, Steve, & Wesley. Wesley is 6 weeks old today and is growing so fast! Of course, the first time we meet Wesley, neither Julie nor I remembered to take any pictures of the boys together. This time...we remembered!

Sweet Baby
