NC State Fair

We went to the NC State Fair this morning.  Being a native of Raleigh, we’ve been to the fair a lot.  But we didn’t go in 2009 because Ashley was just born and we didn’t go in 2010 because Ashley was too young to enjoy it.  So this year we were really excited to take [...]

 

Happy Happy Joy Joy

We’re having a little BOY!! We had our big ultrasound appointment today.  They measured the baby’s body parts, listened to the heart beat, checked out the chambers of the heart, brain, spine, etc.  They even turned on this thing where you can see all the blood flow in the baby; it turned red and blue.  [...]

 

Wedding Anniversary and Hill Ridge Farms

Yesterday was our 7th wedding anniversary!  October is a busy month for us.  Ashley’s birthday is the 12th and our anniversary is the 16th. I’m dying to post pictures from our wedding but the computer that has those photos is unplugged at the moment.  Once Van gets it working again, I’ll post some oldies.  Our [...]

 

Party Day!

I’ll write a detailed post about it when I get the pictures back from Uncle Nathan.  But in the mean time, I thought I’d share a family [...]

 

Happy 2nd Birthday Ashley!

Ashley turned two today!  I cannot believe how fast these two years have gone by.  It’s just crazy!  I’ve been reliving this day two years ago when our sweet baby girl was welcomed into this world at 5:14 PM.  I remember every single moment of that day.  It was a wonderful glorious day.  And now [...]

 

Playdate with Cousin Finley

We met up with Nana, Grandaddy and cousin Finley this afternoon.  It was beautiful weather so we went for a nice stroll down the greenway and came back to the house so the girls could play.  Finley has grown so much since I last took pictures of her.  She just recently turned the big ONE!  [...]

 

Ashley's First Kiss

We went to a playdate this morning at our friends’ Kara and Caleb’s house.  Jan and Brody were there, too.  As we were leaving, Brody gave me a hug and so we asked him if he would give Ashley a hug, too.  Normally he does this quick “lean in” type of hug and then darts [...]

 

Ashley's Big Announcement!

Ashley has a big announcement to make that we were going to get on video.  But we all know how it goes when you try to get something on demand from a toddler…it never happens.  So you’ll just have to hear it from me.  I bet you can guess what it is though Ashley is [...]
