Slumber Party

This week we've been keeping our friends' dog Murphy. Bailey is in HEAVEN. They have played and played and played. She hasn't played with another dog like this in a lonnnng time and she is loving every minute. They have gotten along so well and played so hard, but they've also been very relaxed and sleepy by the end of the day (hallelujah). And the best news is that Jon and Erin just moved into our neighborhood about a month ago, so Bailey's new friend lives just a few houses away! Brandon snapped a few pictures tonight for your viewing enjoyment...



 

As you can see, these are two very happy pups

Bailey is 3!

Today is Bailey's 3rd birthday. I can hardly believe that she's so old, practically an adult now! Brandon and I had no idea what we were getting ourselves into when we decided to get a puppy, but now we really can't imagine life without her. She's such a sweet girl, and we have so many great memories with our goober. Since she's the only kid I've got, I'm now going to do the mommy thing and put up some pictures to look back on the years with my girl...

The first day we brought her home (8 weeks)



Good times on the boat- 9 weeks old
                                 

                                                    

1 year old birthday- what a sweetheart




       

Now 2 years old- so grown up, but so much energy!
Two of her favorite things are going on walks and chasing bunnies in the backyard.





3 years old now, our girl has gotten so big!



Happy Birthday Bailey!!!!!

Back to Camping Again

Last weekend we went to Lake Ray Roberts for our first camping trip of the year with a bunch of friends from church. We had such a good time playing with the dogs and just relaxing outside, not to mention eating lots of yummy food. Brandon and I finally bought a new tent for this trip since our old one was having trouble zipping closed. It was kinda bittersweet, but I think we'll adjust. It was the perfect weekend- good friends, good food, and good weather. I didn't get as many pictures as I meant to, but here's what I did take...

















And what would camping be without the dogs...

Nashville Weekend

 Nashville Weekend (long overdue)

 I FINALLY MET PORTER!!!!!
       
Last weekend I took off a couple of days to head to Nashville for a long weekend to take care of some much needed quality time. It was so good to spend a few days with Bethy and her precious little boy. He kept smiling and smiling at me- I couldn't get enough of him. It's so crazy that Beth is a mommy. We've really grown up together. All the stages in life- graduation, jobs. marriage, and now she is a parent. She is such a good mom, and it's so fun to see her start this new stage. I'm so proud of you Bethy!!!







Miss you two already!!!



Liz's Shower


While I was in Nashville, my sisters and I hosted a shower with my cousins Amy & Stacey for our cousin Liz. She's getting married in July, and we had such a good time celebrating with her. It was a great excuse to have some fun family time.
