we missed you shannon and my~kayla! definitely do this again before fall ends! the only downfall is that horrible smokey smell that wont go away! but, the smores make it worth it all the while ;D

we had a sesame street party for albo since she sleeps, eats, breathes sesame street. been working on this party for months so i would be extra special for my baby :) with the help of my cousin maranda i made most of her party decorations! took a lot of late nights and a lot of time, but well worth it!
we invited our "murfreesboro family" over to help us celebrate!
great turn out!
aubree thoroughly enjoyed herself and all her guests!
thankful to have all our friends close to us!

my o my, my baby is so grown up

very very hard to believe that it has been 3 years since my baby was born. man, how time surely flies ;(
seems like yesterday we were packing to go to the hospital to have her and bring her home.
what a blessing and a pure joy it has been to have been given this miracle. she has brought so much happiness to bryan and my lives.
















happy 3rd birthday aubree!!
you are the light of mommy and daddys life!!
we love you very much..
