Roll Tide and The Happiest Place on Earth

Roll Tide!

Have you seen these precious shirts? I'm thinking Anderson wants one for his birthday! :) Me too!!

Life is beautiful

Hello friends!

Anderson and I like to stay on the go. But, it gets expensive trying to come up with something to do a couple of days a week. We absolutely love the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens. It's super fun and super cheap...FREE!Spring is out in full force and Anderson loves being outdoors and playing, running, jumping, and climbing. In my opinion, all of the a fore mentioned are good for little boy's souls. :)I absolutely love this little devious smile. It means he's up to something good(like running away from me;) This kiddo is a hoot, and sometimes it's really hard to keep a straight face when I'm getting onto him.We walk/run about 1 mile down the boardwalk through the woods and into a solarium/green house. Right outside the green house is a really cool fish tank. Recognize this guy? It's Nemo!

I love the sign on the fish tank it says "Please don't tap on the glass, it makes the fish worry" Ha!

We saw some more beautiful trees and flowers and I couldn't resist putting them on here, because my momma LOVES flowers! What in the world are these?!And our trip wouldn't be complete without a little climbing on the fence. Life is beautiful!

Last Weekend

Hello friends!

Last weekend, Adam's parents were here with us and we had a great time! We walked around downtown Ft. Worth(Sundance Square) and had lunch.

I LOVE the architecture in this city. Isn't this the coolest sign? Sadly, it was a bar, not a shoe store for kids...I was bummed.

We headed down to the Historic Stockyards. They had a free petting zoo and free pony rides-SCORE! Two of Anderson's favorite things! We even found where the keep the steers, when they are not doing the cattle drive down the street. We got up nice and close, which is how I got this picture. But, later spotted a sign that said "Danger, do not come within 20 feet of the fence" YIKES- I see why!! Just look at those horns!! This was "Freckles" Gami and Pappy bought Anderson his 312th(yes, I just counted all of his little animals) and he has been playing with and posing it every since! There is not a time, when he doesn't have animals in his hands!! ;) He Loves them so much.

On Saturday, I got Ms. Tami to garage sales with A and me. I really think she liked it, she bought a couple of things too.

Then when we came home, the kids across the street were playing in the sprinkler(yes, it was 86 degrees)and so we HAD to go play! ;)We had a fun weekend, thanks Gami and Pappy for letting us get away for our anniversary to the Improv Comedy Club for a little date! It was just what we needed.

2,920 Days

Hello friends!

Today, Adam and I celebrate 8 years of marriage! Adam is the BEST person I know. He is my best friend and I love him more today as a husband and a father than on the day that I married him 8 years ago! I still feel like the LUCKIEST girl in the world! I LOVE this man!!You can read more about our wedding and honeymoon here.

A Picnic

Hello friends!
The weather was kind of gloomy today and a little chilly, upper 50's. I am not complaining though because Friday it's supposed to be 85 degrees! Anderson and I didn't want to stay home. We decided to go have a picnic at the park and play on the playground.
When Anderson saw the playground, he took off at a fast sprint. He LOVES playing at the park!Seriously, how did this child get to be this big to be climbing on jungle gyms by himself?Loves to swing!We walked over to the pond and ate at the picnic tables and watched people fish.The boy in the picture later caught a big, yellow catfish. We ran to see it. A was delighted and wanted to hold it! It brought back great memories of my mom's family river home in Suwanee, Florida on the Suwanee River. Such a relaxing place to go and hang out and fish.

I can't wait until Anderson is big enough to go fishing with Adam.

Pump, pump, pump, pump it up!

Hello friends!

We went to our neighbors' daughter's birthday party tonight at Pump it Up(a place where they have inflatable bounce houses and obstacle courses)! It was soooo much fun...even for us old folks!

The whole group of kids...that's Jaycie, the birthday girl, in the middle front row- in the hot pink shirt with the pigtails. And there's Anderson in the yellow striped shirt!Tomorrow, I think we are going to be sore! ;) Ignore my obviously very uncool scream...but it was too fun!

Bennett Hall Fletcher

Hello friends!

Anderson and I have been to Dallas today. Baby Bennett was born yesterday and we wanted to meet him! I always love going to see new babies, it makes me want another one soon! ;)

Anderson was a wild man!He kept trying to touch him on the face(which I let him)softly. I was explaining on the way over how we have to be quiet around babies and touch them with one finger touches(like the snakes at the zoo) and when we got there, he wanted to see a snake! Ha! The whole thing makes me very nervous if we decide to have another baby.

Meghan, Ken(Meg's daddy) and Matt, her husband.

Bennett and me!
