My best friend's baby! :)

My best friend Bridget had a baby! We're so thankful that he is here and healthy and that Bridget is too! They both scared us there for a while!

Meet Baby Evan! :)





Grace LOVES baby Evan. She can't keep her hands off of him. She loves to hold him and kiss him. :)





Playing with Aunt Bridge & Uncle Stephen...


I've had the opportunity to photograph him a few times with my "work" camera too...



Isn't he precious! :) Yay for babies!

Memorial Day Weekend: Tidbits

Here's bits and pieces of our Memorial Day Weekend:

Friday kicked off the weekend with Scott's birthday! Here's a photo of he and I on a boat ride once he finally made it to Columbia. Little did he know we were on our way to his SURPRISE birthday party!


We dodged rain storms all weekend. We definitely made our time in the sun count and when we couldn't be outside we were playing games inside.


Yes, that is Haley riding Grace's power wheels Jeep, down the pier. Why grow up? :)


Lunch in the Sand? Absolutely!


I'll have lots more to come...
