Make a wish Emmie! No wait... Don't! Mommy & Daddy already did! They wished "2" wouldn't be Tooty Terrible!

Emmie picked out the BROWN puppy dog over the PINK poodle.... I asked her 3 times! Ok fine... at least the brown puppy got to wear a pink princess dress and hat! :)

Putting her star in :)

She wanted all of these! Nathan told her to get a JOB!

Good Ol' Tennessee Times

For some reason these 1st three didn't make it and I had to go back and add them Noah with his ice cream sundae at MeeMaws
Emmie kissing the bunny rabbit

Look on Noah's sleeve... it is a TINY frog! :)

Well here are the rest... not really but the most I could put on here! :) These are from us at MeeMaw's and my side of the fam. We were home for my Daddy's 2year anniversary of his death and my sis and I were able to go to his grave. No words for that. Had a great time with MeeMaw. It's always bittersweet being home where I grew up.... seeing the yard and beautiful Tennessee trees. Things you can just never take for granted! :) Noah got out of his bed tonight as he does many and said, "Mama, I miss Tennessee." I know... me too sometimes. :) When you have such incredible family as Nathan and I do... it's hard seeing them a few times a year. But boy did we see the animals while we were there! This post has many more they got to hold, pet and adore! :) Can't wait for another Tennessee trip. We are 6 mths pregnant now and aching right along :).. Guess next time we will bring home another lil Texan. No matter how many little Texans we raise... they will always have some Tennessee in their blood! Yee Haw! Have a happy week! :)

Me and My Daddy's Grave May 29th, 2009

3 Pink roses... one for Me, My Sis, My Mama and 1 Blue for my Daddy.... we are surrounding him , as he is us... always :)

MeeMaw and the Youngens!

About to say our Goodbyes :(

We love some Aunt Amy

I mean... Is this classic Tennessee or what? Sitting under a pine tree (that use to be our Christmas tree) in a chair, feet propped on a clothes basket, and a camo hat to boot! Love it!

The picture on the box made it look like more fun!

Noah running in the field chasing goats! Too much for words, I tell you!

We started this off being silly huggin my mama's flower pot that is 30 years old that we love and it turns out .... I ADORE this picture of my and my Sissy! :)

LOVE!

I love this! The kids chasing the dogs.. Dupree and Marley.

Cheek to Cheek MeeMaw... Her favorite kind of picture :)

Who wants icecream? "I do" It's our new favorite thing to ask Emmie just so we can hear her say, " I do"

Time for a wheelbarrow ride with MeeMaw

Good Morning at MeeMaws!

Welcomed at MeeMaw's with ice cream sundaes! :)
