Wedding Weekend

Last weekend our friends Will and Catey got married.  We had the rehearsal dinner Friday night and wedding Saturday.  I of course took a lot of pictures.   We had such a great weekend with awesome friends!

Sunday was Father's Day.  We love Dada soooooo much!  Here is Mason giving him hugs.  We had a relaxing day.  I made a Paula Dean recipe for dinner and it was very good, Crawfish Fettuccine.  It did call for TWO sticks of butter though!

Cutest boy ever!

This was mom feeding him on that Friday night.  Thanks a ton!!

Lately...

We have been just working and playing this week. John and the guys went out of town for Will's bachelor party and left Mason and I all alone! Here are some pictures from my phone from the week:

Sweet baby boy sleeping.

Just eating dinner.  Who doesn't love blueberries?!?  What's more fun than eating them...sticking them in your ears!

Playing with Brinkley.

Shopping with Uncle Jake (and John and I) for groceries for the camping trip!

Mason and I have the weekend to ourselves! We are going to hopefully hang outside tomorrow and then girls night tomorrow night. 

Shower and Fun in the Sun!

Friday night, we had a shower for our friends Will and Catey.  We just hung out and relaxed with all of our friends.  Here are a few pictures...

Yesterday, John, Mason and I all had just a lazy family day.  We had someone looking at our house from 1:30-2:30 so we decided to go to Italian Fest.  It was about 100 degrees outside but we still had a good time.  Just strolled around and ate lunch.  Mason had a yummy strawberry lemonade chill...and loved every bite of it.  

(he looks miserable in these pictures but it really was fun, I promise)

We were soaking wet with sweat when we got home.  We decided once Mason cooled off to play outside with a fun water thing that hooks up to the hose.  He LOVED it.  I figured he would because his Grandma and Grandpa took him to the water park in Collierville a couple of weekends ago and he had a blast.

 John is a little goofy...

 This is what Mason thought of John.  He was pointing and laughing so hard.

John started running through the water.

Like father, like son...

 Emma thought it was entirely too hot to be outside.  =)

And after a fun day in the sun...

Soooooo tired.  =)

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to the best daddy and husband we could ever ask for! We love you so much!

Weekend Wrap-up

Friday night we went to the Foo Fighters concert with Jake and Blake. We had a good time and they put on a great show!

Saturday morning Mason and I went to my friend Stephanie's baby shower. Wow...it's a lot of work taking Little Dude places alone. He was CRAZY! I believe we are getting to "that age". But the shower was so nice and I loved hanging out with everyone!

Today it was rainy and a good day to lay around. After all of our chores were done of course. :)  But Mason wasnt just "laying around" of course.

Here he is with crazy hair after a nap.

Here he is trying to get into his BBQ grill...wasn't happening!   (Please excuse his sagging pants, they are new, 12 months, and huge!! He is never gonna fit into his clothes!)

And here he is trying to be Daddy.

So stinking cute! 

Weekend and Mother's Day

We had a wonderful weekend.  Friday night after work we went to Pete and Sam's for dinner to celebrate Mrs. Judy and Grandma Reba for Mother's Day.  Mason and Reese did really well and we all had a good time! It is always better when Mason behaves!   I hate that I didn't get any pictures though.

Saturday we had a ton of things to do and felt great once we knocked them off the list!  Saturday night John and I had a couples shower to go to for our friends Michael and Sherene who are getting married in a couple of weeks in MEXICO!!!  I sooooo wish we were going!  The shower was amazing and we took quite a few pictures but I will post them later this week.  

Here is John and Mason Saturday dressed like twinkies! =)  I love this picture.

Sunday we had Mother's Day at our house for my mom.  We grilled out some steaks and just enjoyed the nice afternoon.  Very relaxing!  

 It is that time of year again!  And I am LOVING my flowers in bloom!  All of my plants from Grandma Reba's gardens last year have come back much much bigger!  I am just so excited our yard finally looks good after all that hard work!

This is a terrible picture of me with no makeup but it was my only picture from Mother's Day with the sweetest Little Man ever.  =)

*****************

So tonight John and I were grilling out and Mason was just playing.  He absolutely LOVES playing outside and gets VERY angry when it is time to come inside!  Some of his biggest tantrums.  But we looked over and saw Mason crawling UP his slide.  He always stands there and looks at us like "Are yall gonna help me up this thing?" but I guess we didn't come fast enough.  He was determined to do it alone!  (we of course sprinted over there as soon as he made his first step up the slide)

I then got my camera to record it because he seriously was FLYING up the slide and looked like a little monkey! Of course John called it "athletic".

At the end when he squeals...it is a very very common thing for him to do in public.  =)
