Beautiful Savannah

For spring break we went to Savannah GA with Jake's family. It was one of the most beautiful, full of character and old stories, cities I have ever been to. They have a great river walk, amazing squares with huge oaks and gorgeous flowers. I recommend it to everyone!Brielle eating with her hands my taco salad. That girl learns manners from her dad ;)Rocking chairs at Hilton Head. Not my favorite place. Too many yacht resorts for me but it has a great lighthouse.Many of the houses had these cool stairways leading up to them. I want to retire to one of these one of these days. They were beautiful!Popcorn popping on the apricot tree!Waiting in line for 2 hours to eat at Mrs. Wilkes boarding house. The best fried chicken I have ever tasted and many other southern dishes I have never heard of. Who eats rudabaga? One of the old stone walls next to river walk. The streets were all paved in stones brought over from Europe on the boats.

Enjoying the sun and some quiet time.

One of the many squares

A cool statue on river walk.

The beach on Brielle's birthday. We didn't plan on going there that is why Brielle still has her Minnie Dress on.

Brielle's birthday

Brielle turned 2 last week! She is getting so big and her vocabulary increases exponentially every day. She uses words I don't even use. She is a very sweet girl who loves Minnie Mouse and she loves to pester her "broder". Her and Raegan often team up against him, but Logan seems to hold his own still. We are happy she is part of our family! We were in Savannah for her birthday.



We went to a very southern restaurant and they came out to sing "Happy Birthday" and she just lit up like a light. She loved every minute of the attention they gave her.

She wore a Minnie dress and when ever someone commented on it she always said very accusingly "It's my birday!" She carried a mickey balloon around most of the day because she told me that is what she wanted. Easy to please!

The Big 6!

Our little Raegan isn't so little any more. She turned SIX!!! Has it been six years since I met her for the first time? I feel like I have never been without her. She is a wonderful little adult who is a great artist, loves to sing and dance and LOVES school! She is just like a sponge and soaks up everything.
She had a birthday party with a few friends








She wanted to see "How to train your Dragon" It was a great movie! Thanks everyone for sharing her birthday with us!




Jake's birthday

Jake turned the big 33! We had a little party with his friends and ate way too much cake and ice cream. We had a very competetive volleyball tournament where I think the kids won. In case you all didn't know, I have the best husband in the world! I know it is cheesy, but there is no one better out there.
