I had lunch (squash soup and a BLT) at the Byrd Cookie Company for the first time. Hate that I didn’t discover this until right before I left…it is SO good.
This week I had a small panic attack when Kerryellen and I had to plan a party on her porch in 3 days (we were having it at a restaurant,but that’s a long story). Good thing BB is here. Kerryellen,BB,and I all love throwing a good party and we love a challenge.
And Kerryellen has the best porch I’ve ever seen (I’m in love with her entire house) so that helps.
The past 3 days have been a whirlwind of preparation. I’m going to take a million pictures tonight so that I can blog the party next week. It’s been a while since I’ve had a good party to blog. π

This week I gave the babies their very first piggies:
I laughed hysterically at the big girls (thanks for the glasses BB!).
This week I went to the Farmer’s Market at Forsyth Park:
Played ridiculous amounts of Spot It (loser wears a turkey paw? claw? foot? on their hand. yes, i wore the turkey foot all night).
This week I marveled at how big the babies have gotten:
Spent lots of time with BB
Snuck time to read A Discovery of Witches
Snickered at The Bachelorette and Kalyn’s glossy lips,Jef’s Vanilla Ice hair, and the fakeness of it all .
Took one more link off the paper chain.
Nearly wept with joy when I realized we are halfway through June.
Hope your weekend is beautiful and blessed!

You are right, the babies have gotten so big! As have the bigs, it looks like you are all having fun! I love that watermelon swimmer, I wish I could get one in adult size, hehe π

Adorable kids, to-die-for produce, and fabulous decorations. What a wonderful week! Hope the rest of the deployment speeds by!

what wonderful photos, those girls of yours are so cute, I can still see them singing that song in the car and think of them whenever I hear it, which is alot since I have a 12 year old daughter who loves it…can’t believe June is halfway gone…crazy!

Cute pictures! My daughter has the same swimsuit that Sadie is wearing. I save my money all year to go crazy on swimsuits in the summer. Harper looks so tan already. Just like my very blond hair blue eyed 3rd grader. She gets so tan in the summer even when covered in sunscreen. Thanks for mentioning BLTs! I always forget how much I love them.
