Natchez

I am going to post the rest of our Natchez trip pics in the next couple of days. I did a photo shoot while we were there of the girls in their flower girl dresses from Aunt Beth and Uncle Aubs wedding with a little pink added! :)

I took the pictures at The Twin Oaks Bed and Breakfast. We stayed their on our first anniversary. It is a beautiful house and has beautiful grounds, and the owners are so nice.
There are a ton of pics, but there were so many I loved.
These are being used as their threee year old pictures and I want them all here for them to look back on.










Check out their reflections in the water.
















































You two are growing up way to fast for your mom! You two truly are our beautiful princesses and ballerinas.

Worlds Best Dad

That would be my husband Brian !!! I am sorry this is a couple days late, but I had to share some pics of Fathers day around here. Brian wanted to have a real low key day, so that is what we did. He wanted Beignets for breakfast......





Is she a silly goose or what?


Sweet Amelia


We gave Brian a few different items for fathers day and I didn't get pictures of them all, but he got a couple different things for his grill.



The girls made these at school and it was wrapped and the girls told him that he couldn't open it up until fathers day! How cute is it?



Brian wanted crawfish for lunch....which the girls absolutely LOVE!

Brian teaching the girls how to peel the crawfish themselves.








We also gave Brian this big umbrellla.


We then finished off the day with a splash in the pool.



Brian you ARE The wrolds best dad! You are such an amazing father, husband and friend!
We LOVE YOU!
Hope you all had a wonderful fathers day!!!
A special Happy Fathers day to our dads Pop and Paw Paw!



Silly Amelia



A quote from Abigail

"Mommy something is slowing me down." I asked "what is slowing you down Abigail?" She said "my head" I said "what is wrong with your head?" She replied" It hurts right here and is slowing me down!"

Natchez

This past weekend my dear dear friend Charlotte and her sweet husband Jeff had their baby Michael Hugh babptized in her home town of Natchez. It is one of my ABSOLUTE favorite places to visit. There is something about it that I just LOVE! We lucked out and rented a 2 bedroom cottage for the weekend. The girls had so much fun in our cottage and I think they also now have a love of Natchez. It won't be the last time we rent this same cottage.
The first night we got there we went to dinner for Charlottes sister's bday.
Before we left I took a few pics at the cottage of the girls.



Our precious garden.

Last day of Swimming Lessons

This is the girls last day of swimming lesson pics. The girls did soooo great this year. She had them jumping off the side turning around and swimming back to the side and pulling up. She taught them if they fell in the pool to swim to the side. She also taught them to swim underwater (and starting the breast stroke) until they would get tired and then she would have them float to catch their breath and rest then flip back over and swim again. They both learned to come up for air too! She also taught them to go to the bottom and pick up pool sticks. It was so amazing to watch them. I will put some more video on here soon of them swimming! In a couple of years...Swim team here we come! They love it sooo much!



Getting ready to go in.




Amelia coming up for a breath.
