The Weekend

The past weeks have been both busy and relaxing. Currently I am in Puerto Rico with my husband and his family so I will not be posting until I get back.

I did however want to give a huge congratulations to two dear friends who tied the knot this weekend! Sadly, the camera was packed away for vacation but I was blessed to be a small part of this special day! Unfortunately, all I have are a few phone photos.....
Bridesmaids with the bride....

Brett and I at the rehearsal dinner...

Then came the wedding day...
Love you!!
Quite possibly one of the prettiest setting for a wedding! I think it rained everywhere except Dorgan's Inn on this day!! :) 
I mean really....is she not so beautiful?? 

First dance
Brett caught this shot.....end of the night! :) Ready for the honeymoon! :)

I Love Lucy!

Amy wanted me to take some pictures of she and Pudge to document this time in their life. We started a bit early and I think they turned out great! 
 I mean really...she should be pregnant all the time. Her little bump suits her!
So cute
 These were Amy's baby booties and her Scripture memory cards from when she was little...
Mangs, I cannot wait for August! You are going to be the best mom and Lucy is one loved and blessed little girl to have you and Jeff as parents! Thanks for letting me take some pictures of the three of you! :)

Dear Daddy


Dear Daddy, 
Thank you for always working so hard. Thank you for always tucking us in at night and telling us a "dirty" story about the horse falling into the mud and a "clean" one about him getting a bath! Thank you for calling your "cinnamon roll girls" on Sunday mornings. Thank you for being the most caring father. Thank you for loving mom so well. Thank you for constantly having a project and showing us the importance of hard work. Thank you for telling us "one foot in front of the other!" Thank you for the constant reminder from early on that "the first shall be last and the last shall be first." Thank you for being a good example for Brett to see. Thank you for the 6 AM math sessions. Thank you for all of the many many opportunities you gave us. Thank you for encouraging me in everything that I ever did. Thank you for showing me that the most important thing in this life is my relationship with God. Thank you for showing me how to be a giver and not a taker. Thank you for being so generous. Thank you for praying with us and reading God's Word with us. Thank you for walking me down the aisle and giving me away almost 8 months ago! Thank you for being there. Thank you for being one of the greatest role models in my life.

I love you so so much!

Love,
Lou

Currently Beachin' It....

Right after Mangs shower on Saturday, we cleaned up real fast, packed the cars and the whole Blackman/Jacobs/Kittrell clans headed to the beach. When we got here...as well as Sunday, there was nothing but rain. The past couple of days have been so fun and we have been enjoying our time! Here are a few photos from our first few days. Yes, they are mostly of Virginia. It's tough being the cutest subject to photograph over 7 weeks old. Of course we have Charlotte but she doesn't cheese it quite like her sister just yet! :) 
A little on the cloudy side but a break in the rain on Sunday..
Oh hey husband.....
Love these pictures
Grown girl...
 This beach bum slept the whole time we were there...
So...as you can see our days have been full of sunshine, bathing suits, babies, lots of rest, and even more fun! It has been nice to be down here with our whole family! I'm off to enjoy a few more days of fun!

Lucy Myer Was "Showered" With Love

Yesterday, I, along with several other women had the privilege to throw a shower for Amy and Miss Lucy. Amy has always been the queen of shower throwing and never fails to forget a single detail! You may remember the bridal shower that she helped throw for me just a few months ago! She made sure that everything was absolutely perfect! I wanted to do the same for her! The day started with torrential downpours that lasted......all day long! We were a little bit worried but sweet friends braved the weather and Mangs, Pudge, and Lucy were certainly blessed with so many sweet gifts! I had lots of help making this shower great and I hope that my sister felt as loved as she truly is! 

Right when people walked in....
We were blessed to have my dad, brother, and the daddy to be, as our own personal valet! They pulled up, were ushered to the door, and they parked cars! So thankful!
A clothesline with all sorts of monogrammed goodies!
Little details
Adorable and delicious cookies made by a sweet friend! Thanks Morgan!
The kitchen setup was my favorite! Parasols hung from the ceiling, flowers everywhere, banners, etc.!
Adorable cake and beautiful monogram
Gumballs and a cute little girl!
Pink lemonade for a girl! 
Soon to be parents!!
Mantle
Grandmother, Mangs, and baby Charlotte!
So many thoughtful gifts! Wish I would have gotten a picture of all of the many many gifts she was blessed with! They are all set!
Lucy's arrival checklist! :) 
Sadly, we didn't get a picture with all of our hostesses!
Thank you Melia, Mrs. Sherry, Julie, Catherine, Lindsey, and although she wasn't a hostess...thank you mom for letting us use your home and helping!! :)
I love you sweet sister and hope that this shower was up to your standards! :) Just kidding! So thankful for you and happy that God has entrusted Lucy to you and Pudge!! This aunt is pumped to live across the street!! I love you!!
