Pretty In Pink

Today we all got dressed up to match and took some pics at our house (thanks to a self-timer on the camera and our neighbor!). Nana sent all of us matching outfits a long time before Elle was born and she finally grew into it! So, we decided to put on our "Pretty In Pink" outfits and go to Church. Thanks for the fun Polo outfits Nana and Grandaddy!

Happy 2nd Birthday Landon!

Our beautiful amazing son Landon has turned 2! Paul and I both cannot believe that 2 years have gone by, and so fast! He is growing and developing into this amazing little person. His smile lights up a room and his laugh is the best sound in the world to me. This past weekend we had a little bday bash for him at the pool behind GG and Gpa's condo. He and his little buddies all had a lot of fun playing and swimming together. It was a super windy day, but we were able to pull it off! Can't believe our boy is 2! Just another reminder to cherish each and every day because it truly does go by so fast. We missed our family and friends who were not able to make it because of distance. But, Landon ate a cupcake for each and every one of you! ...seriously haha!

Landon, Jack and Egan playing in the 'little kid' pool (we won't call it a baby pool anymore). :)

They insisted on watering the palm tree haha!

This is Jack! He is Amanda and Jeff's son. He and Landon are pretty close in age and had so much fun watering the cement, palm tree and beach chairs haha!

Great father-son pic! Jeff and Jack!

Jenn and her daugther Katie. Her son Jake was swimming like a fish all day! So fun!

Amanda and her son Will! He is the cutest baby ever!!! Amanda is Jack's Mommy too!

Kyle, Jamie and Egan hanging out by the pool! Their daughter Kieren was running around there somewhere! :)

Kieren and Egan...cute brother and sister. :)

Leslie and her beautiful baby girl Addysen.

My friends Rebecca and Leslie with their beautiful daughters, Leila and Addy...and Elle is in there too!!!

Leila and Elle are about 2 weeks apart. Such sweet baby girls!

Getting splashed!

What's so funny silly boy?

It was so windy, so we didn't get to light the candle, but after we sang Landon 'Happy Birthday' he took a bite out of the candle that was in his cupcake!

Eating more cupcakes....and we had to hide the party favors because Landon thought they were all for him and kept taking them to the little kid pool! haha

So....Landon ate the icing off of 6 cupcakes at the party! Every time I turned my back he had another one in his hand! At one point, he had one in each hand and was leaning over licking the icing off of another one. Can we say SUGAR HIGH!!! haha

Like I said, every time I turned around he had a different cupcake...little stinker! (And I could tell because I decorated each of them differently haha).

Landon and Egan splashing the water around!

Paul manning the grill...good burgers!

Gpa and GG supervising all the young parents...hahaha

Mmmm gotta love cupcakes and ice cream!

Landon and Egan eating yummy cupcakes! I love the icing on their faces! It's serious business when you are eating a cupcake haha.

This is where we planted ourselves for an hour once the party ended. What a fun party!! Nap time for all of us!...except poor Daddy, he had a softball tournament to get back to!

Thanks to all of our great friends who were able to join us for Landon's 2nd Birthday party! Good times!! Happy Birthday Landon David!!

Fun In The Sun

We've been having tons of fun lately...the pictures tell it all! Enjoy! Landon is starting to get used to the water again! Maybe this is the summer he will learn how to swim!!!

Look out Mommy! We're coming in! What's so funny? :) Daddy and Landon liked jumping in the pool together! Landon is super brave! Meanwhile, Elle and I have kissy time! Quick family pic! We were looking at a cool airplane! Bubbles!!! Landon's latest favorite 'thing' to play with! Keeping Mommy afloat!

I love this life jacket! What a handsome little man! While Daddy and Landon were playing down by the water with Landon's brand new boogy board (thanks Uncle Hayes and Aunt Katie!!), Elle and I lounged under the umbrella! The kids like to snooze on the beach! Landon likes to sit in his old toy..that has now been passed down to Elle. Hanging out with his sister! He often crawls under there with her! You just gotta dive in! LOVE this photo! Daddy's version (see below to understand).
