Butler Wedding 9/13

What an exciting September, 2013 we had! We got to help celebrate Aaron and Sarah's wedding! It was the perfect wedding and we are so happy for them! The pictures don't do it justice; they looked fabulous and the ceremony/reception were just perfect!


Congratulations! We love you Aaron and Sarah!

Look at that smile! Is he happy to see his Bride or what? 

The stunning couple!

The cousins (minus H.)

…A little entertainment for the boys :)

How cute! 

Congratulations (a bit late) to Mr. and Mrs. Aaron and Sarah Butler! 

90210- Galveston Beach Day

Growing up one of my favorite shows was 90201. I remember when I moved to Texas and realized that it was actually possible to drive to the beach for the day...I felt like a little part of me was on 90201. (okay- just a little part :).

Last weekend we drove to the beach for the afternoon and let the boys play at the shore for the first time. They had been to the beach to get some pictures when they were babies...but that is all.

And they loved it!

And we loved it!

We will definitely be going back!!!!

Yinzers.

The last part of our trip was a short stop in Pittsburgh.
It was great to see family and to see the city.
Pittsburgh. We miss you!
But our kids will probably say "y'all",
not "yinz"
...and I am okay with that.

Scott and I rode in style to the city.

Ready to come home.

 ...so tired!

 

 

 

 

What a great trip. Now back to life as we know it.  

Almost Heaven....

West Virginia.

Part II of our trip took us from Happy Valley to West Virginia.

Almost instantly, the cousins acted as if they have never been apart!

 
Many four- wheel rides for the little ones...

 

 
...and then for the big "kids" too!

 
We went on an amazing ride through the mountains...

 

 

 

 

 ...and MUD!
