| State Fair |

We went on a little adventure to the Florida State Fair. Eye candy (colors! candy! fried everything!) galore! I wish I could say it brought back memories as a child, but we only went a small handful of times. Excited to start a tradition with our family. Ethan looooved every ball he could get his chubby hands on. Daddy won the water spraying game thing and got E a ball! 

Might I mention we ate to our hearts content. Or at least til our tummy's hurt and we seriously couldn't eat anymore bad (amazingly awesome) food. I regret not getting the waffle ice cream sandwich and *gasp we didn't get an elephant ear! My teeth hurt after eating almost an entire bag of cotton candy alllllll by myself. (btw cotton candy takes me to my happy place. I'm a happy girl when there's cotton candy around)

| Merry Christmas!! |

It was quite an accomplishment getting my husband, sister, and our doggy to sit and smile for our Christmas photos. 

About 80 shots later, a ghetto 'book-stacked' tripod, a silly self-timer, and three locations around the house to find the best background:: I decided to compile our blooper shots to sum up the experience.

And here is our final product! I got tired of waiting for the perfect shot. Our dog, Jordan, wondered why we fed her so much cheese to sit still; and then constantly looked for cheese in our hands. Brilliant.

We're very excited to celebrate our first Christmas as husband and wife and super blessed to have our little bun baking away. :) 


Merry Christmas to all you lovely friends!! <3

Happy 90th Birthday to my grandmother!! What an incredible milestone :) Doesn't she look great!?

 

The family out for a birthday lunch celebration! My grandfather (turning 92 in November!)

is always right by her side. :)

I just adore my grandparents. They've had such a blessed life! Married for 67 years, healthy, great memories, and they both still have a great sense of humor :) Here's to many more!
