Week 30/52

Petronius Oil Rig.  Tallest free-standing structure in the world.

Week 29/52

It's a boy!!!!

Week 28/52

Trying to figure out checkers (using chess pieces).  Couldn't quite get the concept down on this game yet.  But she does have Memory down pretty good :))

Week 27/52

I asked Caroline if she could do her flip off of the diving board and she said "Sure, Mom.  It's my flip jump"  I figured it would never happen but she walked to the end of the board and without hesitation, dove off and flipped right under the water.  And yes, she did it again.  And again.  I love this picture.

Week 26/52

Snapper trip!  We decided that Caroline definitely counts for another 2 snapper (2 snapper/person) since she is too young to have to have a license anyway.

Week 25/52

This weekend I enjoyed celebrating my very dear friend's (Amanda Ming) upcoming arrival of her first daughter, Chapman Evelyn Ming.  We showered her with lots of good food and gifts and helped to get her ready for her Labor Day (ish) arrival!  She had so many sweet friends show up to help us celebrate. The hostesses and guest of honor (in the middle with the baby bump) are in the picture above.

Week 24/52

After choosing "pot-luck" when I went off as a freshman to Samford University, I met one of the sweetest friends in the world.  Even though it had been such a long time since had talked, Shannon and I recently got together and bonded all over again first in Nashville, and now at the beach.  Our families had a wonderful time getting to know each other and all of our girls got along great. It was a very special weekend and we couldn't have had a better time :)!  We look forward to getting to see them again before too long!  Caroline and Brooke (looking JUST like her mother and to be 6 years old July 6) pictured above.
