Visiting Savannah-Post #1

It's going to take a few posts to get through our trip to Savannah so I thought I should get started. We were there for Gabe's sister (Brianna) wedding. She married Josh who is in the Army and is an Apache Helicopter Mechanic. He took us out to the base so that we could look at the helicopters. It was pretty cool. Gabe really liked it. Sadie did too. She really likes airplanes and helicopters since she flew on the airplane with Daddy. We really enjoyed getting to meet Josh and spending time with him and Brianna. They make a great couple. More pictures and blogging about the wedding week to come. (Not to mention the cutest flower girl ever!)

Howard, Gabe, and Josh

That's Gabe sitting on the helicopter and Josh standing beside him

Another favorite picture

So I think this is one of those pictures that you had to be there to fully get, but Gabe and I think it is one of the cutest in a long time. Sadie had helped Gabe pick some zuchinni and I was asking her about it. She is explaining to me that she has a zuchinni. Not quite saying those exact words, more like, "Da, da, wa, da, da" but she sure knew what she was saying and so did we!

Beatin the heat!

I'm working on catching up on blogging about our trip since we got home, but I had to post this picture. We are in a heat wave and it has been over 100 degrees every day and it doesn't look like it is going to let up any time soon. Gabe said that back east the heat is like a sauna and out west the heat is like a hair dryer. Well, we had just gone grocery shopping and were putting away the groceries. I looked up and saw that Sadie had found a comfy seat to beat the heat!

Sweet Christie is Married!

We are just getting back from our annual east coast trip and this year I went a little early to have our college girls reunion. This year we were in Nashville for Christie's wedding! We had a great time and Ashley was such a great hostess. We stayed up way to late as we usually do. This is seriously the ONLY time during the year that I stay up past 11 and 3AM was unbelievable, but we all agree that the best conversations don't start before 1AM.
Christie was a beautiful bride and the wedding was just perfect. I was so blessed to be there and Christie deserves only the best. We missed having you in our conversations Christie...already looking forward to next year!

Here we are at the "Friends" dinner on Thursday night.

Thanks so much for being such a great hostess Ashley!

Ashley made my favorite breakfast ever. Monkey bread and bacon. It was so yummy!

Me and Christie. Isn't she beautiful.

All the college girls at the wedding. (with Jim too!)
