Reunited...

Last weekend was my 10 year high school reunion. Matt, Lilly, Judah and I got together with Jessie & BJ, Deb, Rommel & Gabriel, and Rachel & Lucas at the park that afternoon. We had fun reminiscing and getting to know each other's families. Later that day Matt, Jessie, BJ & I left for the reunion. Mom stayed over and watched the kids and we kind of felt like we were going to prom or something. We should've had Mom take our picture. And the guys should've got us corsages. I didn't take my camera to the reunion, so I just have some photos from our afternoon at the park.

It's update time again! This month, I have been crazy busy with Soul Pardon and photography. We had our 2nd Youth Sunday (it was great) and Nerd Night (we were dorks) and school started for all our jr. & sr. highers in SP. I have been editing photos all day every day for weeks now. I'm currently working on 2 weddings, 1 business, and 2 seniors. I'm happy to have the business, but sometime I think I'm going nuts with all the editing!

Here are some photos from earlier in the month. Lilly, Judah and I got together with Chrissy & her boys (Cole, Caleb, Brayden & Zane) and Rachel & her son (Lucas) at Rose Park a couple weeks back. The kids had fun and I enjoyed the company!
Judah loves his new bouncy seat the Lucas is loaning him...

Our New Swingset

Thank you so much to Khara, Matt, Elijah, Abbey & baby Bel Brooks for the "new" swingset! Lilly is loving it! (And thanks to Beanie & Tim for helping us pick it up!) Here is Lilly & Matt playing with the new swingset a few nights ago: Most of the time, we can't keep Lilly from wearing our shoes. Case in point: Judah thinks his sister is so silly!She loves her brother!After we were done playing on the swingset, I spent about 20 minutes spraying Matt & Lilly with the hose (because we were too lazy to hook the sprinkler up). When we went to put the hose away, Lilly SCREAMED and cried. So we gave in to her tantrum and let her run around in the water for another 15 minutes. (And I got the opportunity to take more pictures...)Judah was sick of waiting for his sister to get done playing. He was ready for dinner.

Lilly has a lot of hair for a two year old...

Last week, Ann twisted Lilly's hair up in little buns while it was still wet and let her sleep in it. The next day, I took them out, and this was how my little mop top looked: About an hour later, her hair was stick straight again.On another note, Matt preached at church two Sundays ago. He is a natural! I was so proud of him!

Lilly & Judah on the phone...

She's already teaching him useful things, like how to talk to Bumma in "Corsalina" (North Carolina) on Mommy's cell phone.

Judah is our little chunky monkey!
