Another birthday

Last weekend we went out and celebrated my sweet friend Keely's birthday and we had an absolute blast!!

It was also a time out with Heath and I and NO KIDS!! That is something that is few and far between so we take advantage of it whenever possible! My mom was so sweet to come over and spend the night so we didn't have to come home at any certain time...so we didn't come home until almost 2 am!!! We felt like we were in college and dating again! So fun!

Me and the gorgeous birthday girl!!

Silly girls...Suzette and Keely

Cheers to Keely's birthday!

about to watch the show at Shogun!

I put this one up here to show you how bad my freckles have decided to be this year!! They are in full force and I haven't even been in the sun that much this summer! Ugh, so annoying!

When we got home this is what we walked in to...Sterling asleep under the end table by my mom asleep on the couch! He said he got scared so he snuck in there and fell to sleep...so sweet!

Father's Day fun

I can not even begin to tell you what an awesome Daddy Heath is to our two precious little boys! God has blessed our little family immensely and I thank him for that all the time! I could not ask for a better example for my boys to grow up with. I hope that they turn out just like him! Here is Heath's father's day in pictures!

I snapped this picture a few months ago...soooo precious!!

He got some shirts that he can wear to his new job and a framed picture of the boys since he has a desk to "decorate" now!

Us at church

Heath and his Dad.

A girl could seriously not ask for a better father-in-law!! I am blessed beyond belief with my in-laws! They would bend over backwards to help any and all of us, or anyone for that matter. Keith is the prime example of what the Lord wants us to be. He is one of the most unselfish, patient, kind Christian man I know. Thank you Keith for everything you do!

little photo shoot in my moms new backyard!

Then it was home for naps all around! Heath can seriously sleep anywhere...prime example...on the floor! Then I cooked him one of his favorite meals...Raspberry Chipolte pork loin

with salad and his favorite...'Em's Good Taters!

(there is a funny story behind that! My step mom makes them and they are called Snowy Potatoes. Heath said out loud one time, "wow, em's good taters"being totally serious...yep that's my hubby the redneck!! :))

We ended the night with a buy one get one free shake from Sonic! Yum!!

All decked out in his St. Louis gear! Thanks Dad and Denise for the pants...he loves them!

Happy Father's day Dad! I feel so blessed that we have been able to become so close. I wish we lived closer together. I could not ask for a more perfect dad. You are one of the most patient, sweet, giving man I know. I know you would do anything for me and for that I love you! God has truly blessed me by bringing you into my life at just the right time!

You know your child watches too many commercials when...

I find this laying on the table after school one day and ask why it says "cox" on it...

"Because we're a cox family"

Our cable company is cox and on their commercials they say they are cox families or something like that? Have I ever mentioned how observant this child is!?!

(Oh, and btw, that yellow thing is the tv!)
