Drive-ins

Drive-in movie nights are so fun...perfect for a rainy day, or even a sunny day when Mommy is too tired for roudy play.

I so love these kids.

Team "Lips," or, Girl.

Team "Mustache," or, Boy.

Stuart and Daddy celebrated the happy occasion with a cupcake.

We have been asked a lot how Aubrey has taken it. She is doing wonderful! She and I are very excited to have four mighty men to protect us and love us.

Guess what Christmas present we get this year?

Today we had a big party with our families to find out whether Baby 4 is a boy or girl. We found out we have another little BOY on the way! We are so excited to have another little mister in our family fold. Pictures and video of the party to come.

White Sulphur Springs

After we hung out with the cousins we drove up to Pennsylvania for family camp with some old friends.

Aubrey & Kristen wasted no time in getting to know each other.

 Aubrey thoroughly enjoyed the tea party.

 Kristen, Maggie & Aubrey...

...this was the last time Aubrey, Maggie & Kristen were together, 5 years ago.

 Bryant & James became fast friends.

 Stuart enjoyed his time, too.

 There was a fishing pond!

 "My fish is THIS BIG!"

 "Cheese," Stuart.

 Buddies.

 Our dear dear friends from Pensacola days.
