Space Center

We visited the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville a couple of weeks ago. It sure looked amazing from the outside, with so many old rockets all over the place, but all in all, it was pretty antiquated. I think the fact that it was 200 degrees outside probably didn't help! All in all though, the little ones had fun in the kid play area and we learned a little more history.

This was just so sweet, Mommy and Blake holding hands, while little Addie tried to keep up after being told several times it was time to go-little miss independent!

The cutest part was watching Blake on the ride, he loved it, but...Addie not so much! She looks so precious with her chubby little legs barely dangling about!

 

How NOT to Pack

Just a quick glimpse into my world as we traveled to Boston for Auntie's baby shower (for only 4 days). What a fabulous weekend it was and a perfect baby shower! Auntie's belly is just adorable and we are so excited to meet little baby Bruneau in July. 

The proud to-be parents!

A Day on The Course

Daryl and Blake had a fun boys day by attending a senior PGA Championship Tour here in town. Blake is a little Osbahr in the making, so it's no surprise that he came home with pictures of several famous golfers as well as three autographed golf balls from Tom Watson, Mark Calcavecchia, and David Frost.

I love you, Daddy

Talladega NIghts

On Mother's Day, there was a fundraiser to benefit the tornado victims at Talladega Super Speedway. For a small donation, we were able to drive our own car around the track...at 100+ mph!!! It was an amazing thrill. In retrospect, I don't think we should have taken the kids with us nor driven an SUV. But, we made it out alive, had an amazing experience and gave to a good cause.

Race for Amanda

It has been just over two years since my best friend, Amanda, lost her very short battle to ovarian cancer. It was just heart breaking watching her slip away so quickly. She fought so hard and was SOOOOOO positive the whole time. This type of cancer is so dangerous because it is silent and goes undetected so much. Please take the time to read about it for the sake of all the women in your lives who you love so much.

Running up to mommy at the finish line!!!

The weather couldn't have been more perfect today to celebrate the lives of all the women who have fought to beat this horrid disease. We all ran (and walked) in honor of them. But for me especially, Amanda, was on the forefront of my mind the whole time. I had a teal butterfly, ovarian cancer T-shirt on to represent Amanda who loved butterflies so much and the little ones each wore teal shirts for the cause.

We think of you each day Amanda and wish you were still here with us, love you

Soccer in the Spring

Blake took to the field again this spring for another season of soccer. Watching the little kids run around and having almost no idea what they're doing but having fun anyway, is just priceless!

Can't get it by me!

Georgia Aquarium

Their silhouettes are so sweet

We had a very unexpected trip to Atlanta to visit Grammie and Grampie last weekend. They were absolutely in shock when we pulled in the driveway but of course, welcomed us with open arms. We played lots of basketball and had yummy meals, and also visited the famous Georgia Aquarium-the largest in the world. It was fun, but don't think it was worth practically having to donate a kidney for the price of admission! Nonetheless, we saw lots of pretty fish, the kids had fun and we can check it off our list!

Some April Fun

April was yet another busy month...after coming home from Vero and having a wonderful Easter day, we also visited Baltimore, went to the Botanical Gardens-a great, fun place for the little ones to run around, visited the new elephants at the zoo with friends, Daddy took Blake to a local baseball game, and we survived one of the most horrific days of tornadoes in US history-we thank God that we were unharmed and our hearts go out to all of those so close by that were affected.

Sunny Vero Beach

Those smiles and that sky tell it all...

We took an unexpected trip back home to Florida last week. We had such a fun, relaxing time with Monie, Grammie, Grampie, Auntie (and her little baby belly), Aunt Zem and Jan. Sure wish Daddy could have come too-that dang job is always getting in the way of our beach time!!! Despite the fact that we were missing one, we still managed to have a wonderful time! Addie took to the water like a fish and had no fear of the ocean. And we all came back with nice tans just in time for the start of spring.

Hi Vero Beach

Fun in the sand

A little taste of what our week was like...food, sun, pool, beach and fun!

We ended our trip by making a special stop to Pop Pop's grave where Blake and Addie buried a golf ball for Pop Pop to play golf up in heaven.
