Last Full day in Florida

The whole gang!


I love this picture, think it's my favorite of all the beach pics. It captures his personality great. He is the funnest little thing and bring so much joy to our lives and I'm thankful for him everyday.
















These are from our last full day in Florida. I have a few more to post tomorrow and one day this week I'm going to sit down and give you a Hudson update. He's really growing and changing everyday. Things have been busy since we've been home. We went to a horse show Saturday where our girls jumped and rode in dressage. In 13 and up division we brought home a 1st place and in 12 and under we brought home a 2nd and 3rd.
Today has seemed extra busy as I'm trying to get my fall schedule organized. But we managed to get some time in outside so he could ride his tractor and it is beautiful. We'll be heading back down to the barn shortly to start working and get back into the routine of things. I hope you all had a great weekend and your week is great as well.

More of Florida

Love my boys!
The water and weather were so wonderful, couldn't have asked for it to have been any better!





The guys: Jon, Darrell, and Jason










A view from where the guys were fishing.






One morning we saw at least 20 dolphins, it was so awesome!







Two sweet girls, Ellie (above) and Jordin (below)






















We changed some names while on vacation. So, meet Jason Forrest and Ellie Carney!

Day 2 Florida




I know these pics are similar but I liked them both so I just posted them both. These are sitting on the second floor screened in porch of the house we stayed in-so nice!





Ready to ride the golf cart to the beach!




Our cool little guy!

Playing in the sand with Ellie.






Aren't they the cutest!

I have requested a tub just like this especially since Hudson loved it so much ;) Maybe in my dreams!




Hudson and Jordin loved sitting in this chair and they are hilarious to watch play together. They just laugh and giggle at each other and before you know it you are laughing just as hard at them.


Can we say having fun, or what! This has been the first vacation we've been on that we haven't wanted to go home after a few days. I think it's the people we are with that's making it so awesome!



First Time to see the Ocean

Walking to the beach!














He loved the waves splashing up against him!



We've spent the past week in Florida, less than a mile from Rosemary Beach. It's been so amazing, so beautiful, and way too much fun! We drove all night last Friday night to get down here so that's why Hudson is in his pajamas for his first time to the ocean. We just couldn't wait and had to get him down there.
The house we've stayed at is awesome. And some great friends of ours came down with us. The Forrest's (Jon, Carrie, and Ellie) and the Bailey's (Darryl, Tiffany, and Jordin). Our kids have had a blast playing together and there have been a few loooonnnnggg naps :). I'll try to make a new post a day so you can see some of the great pics taken!

LOTS of Birthday Pics, Finally!

One of our teens from church made these cakes, they were not only so cute but very tasty!




















I love our expressions in this pic.! He was so excited with every gift and I think a little overwhelmed!


His very own tractor! We cannot get him off of this thing now, he is constantly asking to ride his tractor, now if he could only learn to steer it!
John Deere, anyone?


Aunt Casey, we miss you, come home! He really does miss his Casey. The other day he fell and hurt himself and we started looking at pics to get his mind off of it and he started crying when he say Casey and wanted to talk to her so we had to call her and he was all better!
They were all doing the chicken dance!


We have had a time with computers and Jason's laptop is the one that had internet on it and we haven't been able to get it fixed so last Thursday we had internet put on my laptop. And I have just put over 300 pics on my laptop, that'll be fun going through! On Jason's I had them so organized! So here are some pics from his birthday party, I have some from Grandmom I haven't had a chance to go through so I'm sure I'll post more at some point.
His birthday party was great. We had family over and grilled out at Hoss and Meme's house. We have so so so so so many tractors now and he plays with them ALL! I went through all of his old toys and have a sack full to give away. I think we are going to do the "get a toy, give a toy away" thing.
I will try to get back to posting a few times a week now that we have internet again!
