Happy Anniversary Take 2

And round 2 of anniversaries begin..... Today is Shelly and Jeffrey's anniversary. I can not believe my baby sister has already been married 4 years! Craziness, I guess time really does fly when your havin' fun. You dream your whole life of your wedding day, what it will look like, who will stand up for you, what exactly you want your dress to look like, and even where you will go on your honeymoon. And it seems just like yesterday we sitting around talking this all over with her and yet here we are 4 years later.


Shelly, I am so proud of who you have become over these last few years. You are a wonderful wife and an even more wonderful mother. Thank you for being the kind of mother and provider for my niece that I knew you would be. I hope you have a great day.
I love you,
Sissy

Happy Anniversary

I can't believe three years ago we were walking side by side, down the isle as husband and wife. I'll always remember the feelings of pure joy and excitement followed by an overwhelming sense of nervousness. After the official "Mr. & Mrs." I remember trying to calmly walk down the isle with a smile on my face, when really I couldn't wait to escape the ceremony shouting to the world... "We did it!, We're FINALLY married!" Everything was so perfect and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day to marry my best friend.




Jeff,
Thank you so much for making me the happiest girl alive on June 3, 2006. Thank you for loving me the way you have ever since. Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you for making me laugh every single day. I cherish everything we have dealt with these first 2 years. The good and the bad, and am so thankful I had you by myside for all of it. I love you so much and can not wait to see what God has planned for us. I am excited to spend the next many, many years by your side.

i love you,

Miranda


Thank you Lord for giving me such a wonderful gift.... My husband and my best friend.

Fish & Filet

On Saturday night we went to dinner with the Motal's. Jeff found a new seafood restaurant in the galleria area called Joyce's Seafood. Since I do not eat fish i'll take their word for it that it was good. My filet mignon and garlic mashed potatoes were yummy. And we all agreed that the Key Lime Pie was to DIE for. I should have taken a picture of it but it didnt last long! Well anyways here are a few pictures of our night out.

Radio Flyer

After Kinley and I had lunch with Misti and Nicole. We headed out to my in-laws for Jeff's birthday dinner. Abby and Kinley played for hours in her wagon she got for her birthday. They didnt even really have to be pulled around. They didnt care, they just wanted to buckle and unbuckle, buckle and unbuckle...... We even took it in the house and they still played in it. Apparently my sister needs to invest in a little red wagon. It is like the ultimate baby sitter (just kidding)!!!

Lunch Date

Since we were able to stay in Waco a couple of extra days. I was able to get together with Nicole and Misti for lunch on Monday. And as always we had a great time. Eatting some good food and catchin' up on all that we have missed with each other. This was the 1st time that I got to meet Misti's new baby girl Emersyn. And what a doll face she is. I also got to spend the day hanging out with Kinley too. Which of course she was in full "Ham it up" mode during lunch. I am kind of disappointed in myself though , I made it a point to bring my camera and it was in my purse. Yet I forgot to take it out and get some pics of me with my girls. Oh well, Im sure there will be other times. I do have a couple of miss thang though.

Little Miss Priss
"Auntie M, are you in there in that camera?"

Dont you just want to gobble her all up.. She has to be the cutiest thing ever i think.

Back Yard Fun

Kinley ended up getting a pretty cool pool on Saturday so her and Connor spent the evening swimming and splashing Papa. They were too cute. Just check out the pic's....

It's A Baby Shower

This past Saturday me and Shelly hosted a couples baby shower for Jamie & Jeremy. It turned out really cute and she got some much needed girly items to welcome Miss. Camryn to the world next month. We opened gifts, and grilled up some burgers then hung out in the back yard. It ended up being a great relaxing night!

Happy Birthday

Today is Jeff's 31st Birthday. We celebrated yesterday at home with family and fajitas. And then actually spent today driving home from Waco. He ended up with a few good gifts, money, car tags, cologne.. I think he had a good day. What do you think?

We found you Mr. New Booty

I think this picture is freakin hillarious...... Connor got a new toddler bed for his birthday. Apparently the transition from his baby bed has went quite well. When Jamie went in to check on him this is how she found him. Sound asleep, no diaper, yet a pile of them on the floor.. So funny. And to think she is going to have another in less than a month.

In Law's ~ Abby ~ Horse Races

So if you couldn't already tell from the title of this post. We had alot going on around here last weekend. Jeff's parent's had planned on coming down for the weekend and hanging out with us. Then a few weeks ago Jeff found some really cool tickets to the horse races where we were able to sit club level and enjoy the big buffet they offered. Which was yummy I might add. At the last minute we found out that we were going to have a surprise little guest by the name of Abby. We could not have been more excited. Between her grandparents and her aunt & uncle that never get to see her, I think it is safe to say that she was spoiled ROTTEN. (Sorry bout' that Tiff). After we spent the day at the races we headed home. Saturday evening Jeff grilled up some super delicious steaks and after dinner we just hung out and talked. It turned out to be a pretty great weekend.
I don't have a whole lot of pictures but I hope you enjoy the one's I do.....
