She has two in there...haha (sorry the pic is blurry, taken from my not so up-to-date phone) She is keeping them away from her uncles:
Puck
And Nick!! They are too funny! I just love em'!
Quick pic before we go pick up our cookie...You just can't eat here and not a get a cookie for dessert right? Next stop....
Monkey Joes!! 
Olivia taking a break from bouncing!
There were only a few other people in the place so it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. It was nice and quieter than usual. My Mom with the girls!!
Love this pic!
The girls coming down the big slide together. Sorry it's a little blurry..they were moving pretty fast :)
I snuck into the Sesame Street inflatable with Bella. Getting in the thing was easy...getting out, not so much!!
And yes, the girls even talked my Mom into sliding down the "big slide."
Haha..this one is great. Wish their faces would have been clearer. My Mom's was priceless! Also, there were a few screams not captured. I should have recorded it.
And I had to get on one last time before we left. This jumpy thing, however, needed a little more air, and our landing off the slide, for Olivia and myself, wasn't so soft!! :) But we had a great time there. After MJ's, we headed to Target, for a few surprises, then to our house to "rest" and finally, to VBS that evening. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed spending time with them. Hope to do it again real soon!!
And his name is Petey!!!!! He is Missy's (my sister-in-law...but more like my sister) and Gracie's(my niece) sweet doggie.
Gracie just loves him...and he loves her!
Love this picture. Looks like he was about to give her a big, wet kiss...but he didn't ;)
after a lot of hard work, in the hot sun, the fence was mended and Petey got "off the chain." This picture was Josh and his dad working on the fence.
This was Petey before he got off his chain....
And this was Petey after. Almost looked like he was smiling at us. And that tail of his never stopped wagging.
After he got off, he went exploring all the new smells and seeing the new sights.
He even had to go and bury his new bone!
And then just decided to sit and enjoy it!
Josh and his Dad, stopping for a break..and a quick pic.
And we had to get our picture all hot and glistening!! What wasn't pictured, however, was Missy, Gracie and myself giving Petey a bath. Petey was a little scared of the water at first, and then I think he realized how good it felt on such a hot day. And with a little help from Josh, who got some really soaked shoes and pants, Petey got a nice bath and a cool down! We had a great day! And while we were working, Missy started singing this song..and I think its pretty fitting!
Love this picture of Brody!! What a handsome little guy!! I could take pictures of him all day!
This is the sweet shirt we got Brandon for his bday...straight from Charleston! And a great restaurant by the way!!! We ended the night at their house watching a movie, and eating cake! In the words of Brandon.....our night was...."NTS." (Not too shabby...thanks B) :) 
And almost 5 years later...here we are!! We don't have any kids YET, but we do have a playful 4 year old little Shih-Tzu named Chloe. She loves to give big, wet kisses and loves to play with her toys and babies...and an occasional dirty sock.... :) And yes, I have to post my fav picture of her. Its a little old, but she still looks pretty much the same...maybe just a little chunkier ;)
Josh and I have absolutely crazy schedules, so I cherish my time with Josh. I work third shift at a local hospital as a nurse on the Labor and Delivery floor. And although it's stressful and has its moments, I LOVE my job. Not only do I get to meet so many people, but I get to be apart of such a special time in their lives.
Josh and I have also been blessed with an amazing church family. We teach the College and Career Sunday School Class at TBC, the C&C! And we have an awesome group. This year we have really been focusing on mission work in our community and have had some great outings. Will post that too!!!
We have a lot of big things coming up in our near future. We will hopefully be building our house soon. We have land...now just need the house :) And we are more than ready to fill our new home with lots of little children...(ok so maybe just 2, but it sounded good :) And we know and trust that God's timing for all of this will be perfect. Because we serve an on time God. "He has made everything beautiful in its time..." Ecclesiastes 3:11
So that's a quick overview of our beautiful life together. We look forward to capturing and sharing all of our precious moments with you!!!

We had a great time celebrating with him and his girlfriend. We enjoyed some lazy days on the beach and some great food. We also saw a beautiful fireworks display over the water. I didn't take very many pictures (imagine that) and I wasn't too impressed with the ones I did take. So, I guess the bird will have to do for now. He was a funny little guy, I just had to get his picture! Thank you Shane for letting us come down and celebrate with you! Love you!

Haha...this picture cracks me up! I think she was saying "get me out of this thing."
Me and Gracie having some fun! She loves to play lifeguard in the water. I pretend like I'm in trouble, and she comes to the rescue.
Nanny Tuck is such an amazing woman. She is the one of the most kind, compassionate and thoughtful person that I know! She always makes me smile just being around her! So happy we could celebrate this special day with her! Happy Birthday Nanny! We love YOU!
