Talia's 2nd Birthday!

I apologize for my recent lack of blogging.  We finally got internet today so I had a valid excuse.  Have a few things to catch up on starting with Miss Talia's 2nd birthday.  Ryden got to see all his little homies and play at the park.  Seems the ladies love RyRy
Birthday girl and Mommy
Can't get enough of running across the draw bridge thingy
or swinging...Ryden stayed on the swings so long that he kept having different visitors
Brooke
and then Connor
Connor ditched the swings soon after to raid the fruit table...and stayed there for quite some time
Pretty Hello Kitty cake
Found a pine cone and carried it around everywhere
All the preggers in order of due date...Claire is about to pop
Happy Birthday Miss Talia!!

Duck...Duck.....

Today we took the kiddos to Discovery Lake in San Marcos to feed the ducks.  As you can tell, Oliver was super duper excited
They LOVED throwing the bread in the water..Ryden going for the pitch
Chuck it MoMo!
Careful Oli...
Chase takes a new approach
Buddies sittin' on the dock of the bay
Too bad the many ducks were not too interested in the bread.  This was the finished product.  Notice the ONE duck chillin by the zillion pieces of bread
Chase and Moses gettin' in trouble
After feeding the ducks we took the boys to the playground.  They had this cool fountain area that turned into a nice little splash zone!  They loved it!



Going to the chapel...Elyse's day!!

I can't even begin to describe how stunning my cousin was at her wedding and how perfect her day was.  She glowed the entire day!  We had such a blast and I am honored that I got to be a part of it all.  Both of my "little" cousins are now married old ladies :)
The day started off right with all the girls getting ready together
Wedding time!  While I was off doing bridesmaid stuff, my wonderful husband entertained all the kids (with a little help from cousin Marissa)
Cutest ring bearer's evah!
Waiting....
Here we go.....!  Beautiful GG Pie and my Uncle Fred

Just had to post this pic because it's a great shot of the sassy green shoes we all wore.  Love!
Sistas!
Flower girl time!  Emma was adorable!  She saw her Grandpa at the alter and ran straight to him.  Flowers were forgotten.  Addy, on the other hand, made sure every last flower was out of her bucket.  She even turned the bucket over and tapped on it.  No flower left behind
Bride and her Daddy
Husband and wife
Let the fun begin!










Beautiful day...beautiful bride...wonderful friends and family....
