I'll take ya for a ride on my big green tractor!

We had several tractors out in the field behind our house last week and Jake was all about them. He loved playing with them and it was a lot of fun for me too!

Our Big Day

Our special day could not have gone any better. It was absolutely perfect. Although I do not remember everything about it, I would not trade it for the world. It was so awesome being close to all of our friends and family. We ended up having around 45o people in attendance to help share this day. The food, music, and everything was awesome. Thank you to all of those who helped make it so wonderful!!

This was the first time we saw each other :)

Let Me Tell Ya 'Bout My Best Friend!

So this blog post is a little over due....

I should have told you about my best friend a long time ago!!

But she just got back from a trip to Africa so no better time to highlight her!!!

My best friend MISSY!!!...aka. Melinda Patterson!

Melinda got to go on a medical mission trip to Africa and brought this awesome wood carving back to me and Adam! It was so cute! You can't see it but it has both of our names on it and our wedding date! We both loved it!

Melinda and i have been good friends since little league softball but became BEST FRIENDS in high school. She was always someone I could depend on to have a good time and was always there for me! She even almost got in a fist fight for my little twirpy self our senior year! Yes, I have a great friend here!

I am so lucky to have her as my friend.

And...you are so lucky to get to see these priceless "individual" shots I captured of her :)

Sips and Strokes

For my little "bachelorette" outing my sister planned for us to go to Sips and Strokes. I had never been before and was very excited about it. A lot of my friends already had plans for the evening so 4 of us : Krista, Danielle, Kenzie and myself got to enjoy the fun. We ended up having a great time and were all pleased with our paintings. Thanks for a fun night Krista!

The finished products!

River Fun

There is nothing better than heading to the Tennessee River on a hot summer day! It is definitely one of my families favorite things to do. This year Jake is big enough to ride the Jet Ski and tube so he is enjoying it also!

Ready for some fun in the sun!

Hanging out on the sand bar.

Ready to take off on his own!

And......the day is over! It was short ended by tired Little Man but we still had a great time!

Disney World

I have been wanting to go to Disney World for awhile now because I don't really remember going before and the Reynoldson family made that possible for me this past week! I was so excited to go with some of my favorite people! We loaded up last week and headed off towards Nashville to catch our flight....only problem was....I forgot my wallet and ID in Camden.... :) Hello Mom!!! I ended up having to call Mom two hours before our flight took off and have her speed to Nashville with it. I ended up going through "intense" security right before she got there because I was afraid I would miss the plane. Security had to call Washington to clear me and I had to be patted down. Mom ended up getting to curb side drop off 5 minutes before my plane boarded and the wallet was thrown security! I ran to my gate and barely made it on time....Not the way to start the trip! Lets just say I was very glad to make it to Florida!! Overall, we had an amazing time at Disney!! It was defenitely won of the best weeks I have had! Thanks Reynoldson family!
