family photos

A few weeks ago we had our friends Carolee and Britton over for Sunday dinner. We took them Cedar Hills, TX, the only town I found all summer with any sort of charm, to get some ice cream afterwards. Carolee has a degree in photography and with camera in hand she started taking some pictures of the kids eating ice cream. Twenty minutes later we had a photo shoot on our hands and these are a few of the really fun images she captured!

my favorite part of the day

One of my favorite parts of the day is when Cody wakes up from a nap and walks out of his room with his lambie and blankie all sullen. He walks right to me and leans against me and whimpers. Then I get about five minutes of uninterrupted snuggle time. I feel so blessed to be home with my kids. These past few years with Cody and Ellie have been priceless. Being an only child it's been so rewarding to watch them interact with each other and see how much they rely on each other for support. They remind me of a mini husband and wife. So cute.

I don't like to get sappy on this blog but I will say we had a great anniversary. I love that we are able to share each others interests (i.e. biking, skiing, running). It helps keep us connected and gives us something in common other than our kids and the day to day stuff. We always get a little giddy when we are able to go biking together.

oh flip!

I just found this - a list of a TON of the best shopping in Dallas. I know I said I wasn't a shopper - but that's mostly because cute shops are hard to come by. My bucket list of things to do before we go is growing by the day, and time is running out!
