Celebrations, oh my!

This past weekend was full of firsts, celebrations, and victories in many ways...

 

+ We celebrated this little cutie's birthday on Saturday with a "Pow-Wow" theme and it was precious. His mother is officially hired to do all of our kids' birthday parties. Happy birthday, Abel! Mr. Hunter and Mrs. Kelly love you so very much!

 

 

+ A high school friend of Hunter's got married this past weekend and it was so wonderful and beautiful. He also really enjoyed seeing some old faces and being able to catch up. Fun fact, Hunter's high school graduation class was whopping total of 20 people - 10 boys, 10 girls. Compare that to my 500+ graduating class... Ha!

 

 

 

 

+ Now that spring has sprung, house projects are underway! We have a tree that overhangs our fence in the backyard and, of course, drops tons of leaves. With the accumulation of leaves and wet ground, we were having quite the mosquito problem. We decided to tackle that this weekend and ya'll, I'm pretty sure we have been breeding the Zika virus in our backyard. It was awful! But our backyard is looking better already!

 

+ I have to say, Hunter and I have really come to have a lot of peace in our hearts about some decisions we were needing to make and with other personal things in our lives. I will share soon one of those decisions (no, it's not a baby) because honestly, we need prayer. And we're excited + nervous. How's that for a cliff-hanger?

 

Happy Monday folks! It's a coolish day here in north Florida but the sun is shining, birds are tweeting, and pollen is thick as all heck. But the good Lord woke us up this morning so let's embrace it all.

The Reception

Hunter and I cannot say it enough - we had so much fun at our reception!! And we are so glad that we made the difficult decision to make our reception dry. People had so much fun, danced their little hearts out, and chowed down on some good, southern cooking.

 

Ya'll, my brothers and husband even danced. They don't dance...

 

And that's it folks! I have absolutely loved sharing these photos and memories with ya'll.

Pre-Ceremony Pictures, Part II

If you missed last week's Part I of Pre-Ceremony pictures, feel free to stop on by to check them out! Otherwise, here are the remaining pictures of our time spent before we took that notorious walk down the aisle.

These next several pictures are of us seeing each other for the first time at our reception location, and of the reception location itself. A lot of the pictures that were done at this location were very casual and captured us in our natural moments. These are my favorites!
