First day of school

This year I have a elementary schooler, middle schooler and a SENIOR!!!
YIKES!

Three girls, three different schools.

My Senior :



My Middle schooler:



My 3rd grader:

So proud of all my girls. This is a big year for them both, McKinley and Madison have started new schools this year and are out of their comfort zone. But they have both had great attitudes about it.

Can't wait to hear all about their day!!



Madison, by far, was the most excited!


Happy Thursday!

July

The first week we had an amazing week at Captiva Island with friends, this past week we've done the boring things around the house that just hasn't gotten done becase of, well life.

We have re- done our landscapeing out front, David spent two days painting base boards and I re-painted an old desk... I know, fun stuff :) He also painted McKinley's bedroom.





David took the two younger girls ona  day trip to Wiki Watchi kayaking.

The water is so clear and they both loved it.


That kind of day is a big WIN for David. While they were gone I got to spend the day with just Morgan which was suoer nice because that does not happen often.

July

Our church graciously gives us the month of July off to rest, relax and recharge. We are so very
thankful for this time. We were able to go on a lovely vacation with our friends, The Anderson's.
They moved to Atlanta 10 years ago and when we get together its like they never left.

We spent a week on their boat in Captiva Island and it was amazing!!







If you follow me on Instagram you've probably seen all these pictures, sorry!






It was like our own little "tiny house" experience living on a boat for a week:) The sunsets each night were amazing.





It was definitely a week we will never forget! Thank you Mike and Sherrie!!

family photos



we updated our family photos last month.. Something that stresses me out! I struggle with trying to coordinate matching outfits. We took them at a local barn and it was beautiful.










My friend, Yanira takes our pictures each year and she always does a fabulous job! It's not easy taking pictures for a family of FIVE.


Now onto that wedding i was talking about a few days ago>

It was Emily and Reese's wedding and it was in Thomasville, Ga at the Pebble Hill plantation.
And when I say it was a beautiful venue, I am not kidding!

We stayed at the South Eden plantation and it was also beautiful. I had a little photo shoot with Morgan on the grounds.









view from our room!


I just realized I did instagram stories at the wedding and I didn't save them so i don't have any pictures of the ceremony
and the amazing reception. The reception looked like a scene right out of Father of the bride , It was beautiful.

Emily arrived at the wedding on a horse and carriage:) and she and Reese left in the carriage.




I hate that I didnt get any pictures of the reception. Just think amazing tables, center pieces, and hanging laterns throughout all these beautuful trees :). It was definitely a wedding I will never forget.

Ground breaking

I never posted about our Ground breaking at church. It was in March and hands down one of the best services I've ever been a part of. We had all of our Five weekend services come together and we met outside on the very spot that we will be building our new building.


David and Pastor Daniel 


Me and my friend, Karin!

I love our church and all those who make up Fishhawk Fellowship. God has BIG things in store for us. Greater things are yet to come.
