2 houses...3 kids....and 9 years later....

Nine years ago I fell in love with Alex and his big beautiful smile, and nine years later that same beautiful smile still makes my heart melt. Looking back at the last nine years it seems to have flown by, and yet when I say nine years that seems like a long time to me. I know this post is not really on our Anniversary, but June 6th wasn't that long ago, and I am following the typical blog tradition. I saved this picture of him to post for our Ann. because it shows so clearly the happiness he radiates.

Alex Happy Anniversary I love you and I can't wait to add many more to Nine.

Maclain's Birthday

In our house starting when you turn five, we have a friend party every other year. Maclain turned seven this year and he gave up his friend party if we would go camping. So of course we went camping. So for Memorial Day weekend we went up to Smith and Moore house. We had lots of fun, and Maclain thought it was so awsome to catch his first fish on his birthday. We relaxed, fished, had smores, road in the back of a truck, played in a little stream, fed some birds, watched chipmunks, and just plain had lots of fun. Happy Birthday Maclain.....where do the years go? I can't believe you are seven already.
