Christmas Eve {2019}

Christmas Eve started at Gigi's.  Dylan put together Papa Nutt's train set.

Then it was breakfast time.

Ry reading about the birth of Jesus.

Then it was gift/hang out time.

I so enjoyed this time with Juliette before she heads back to the Army.

We got back home and Chris and Ry tossed around the football.  It was 69º and WAY too warm to be Christmas time.

We headed to the Christmas Eve service at church and caught a spectacular sunset on the way home.

Dinner time.... my family loves lasagna on Christmas Eve!

And Bombi loves his bone any day.

Cookies & milk for Santa and carrots for his reindeer!

Summer Camp

I dropped this guy off for church summer camp.

He went with his best buddy, Nico.

They sent me this photo from the bus,

which made me laugh because they sent this photo 2 years ago on a bus on the way to camp.

The church posted pictures and videos throughout the camp, so I caught glimpses of what he was doing...  Can you find him in these pictures?

They came back exhausted but had a blast!

Cousins

Saturday we went to Downtown Franklin and ate at Mellow Mushroom.

Then after we met up with my cousin, Kevin.

Kevin and his daughter Sierra.

We took them through Philanthropy.  One of my favorite stores there.  They have a Prayer Room, where you can write down your prayers and hang them on the Prayer Wall.  People can go in and pray for those specific prayers.  It's amazing.  I caught Rylan writing one, and he was praying for his cousin to feel better. {So sweet!}

It was fun catching up with Sierra {who lives here in Nashville}, Kevin and his wife Heather {who were visiting from California}.

I love it when family comes to town.

On the way home we took the backroads.  We stopped at Theta General Store to get some drinks.

It was a fun family day!

Week #12 {2018}

Sunday was a beautiful sunny day.

 The Littles let a balloon go...

 and Rylan said "I hope you have fun with that Papa Nutt!".  I melted right there.

 Tuesday Ry guy woke up early and we spent some time going through Papa Nutt's book of photos.

 Thursday's sky was spectacular...

Friday Chris and I got to go on a lunch date, and we tried out a place we haven't been before.

And OH MI GOODNESS... It is my new FAVORITE Mexican food place.  Just looking at this photo makes me drool all over again.

 Saturday was picture day at soccer.  Here's Payton's team...

And Rylan's with his super hot coach! {wink}

My sweet kiddos!
