Weekend Things

This past weekend was an extra long one for us. One of my very best friends from growing up got married, so we headed up to Chicago on Thursday to see family and enjoy the festivities.


I wont lie, I was scared to fly with G this go around. He's mobile these days, not quite a snoozy as he used to be, a lot more vocal, and he was so good last time, it left a lot for him to live up to. Luckily this Mama was prepared: Snacks, Milk, books, iPad loaded with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and my Bose Headphones, done and done. It always feels good when everyone compliments you and your baby when you land.









Our first stop was Portillo's, per usual. One of maybe two trips we took there in four days. G had his first hot dog (don't judge!) and some itlian beef. It never disappoints. Ever.


That night we visited with my cousins and aunt & uncle. G had a blast meeting all of his extended family.











Friday we lounged around the hotel all morning before going on a little tour of my childhood. J wanted to see where I grew up so we drove around town while G napped.





The old house I grew up in... its changed quite a bit, but I will say the grey update makes it look much better.



That night we hung out with my other aunt,uncle and cousin. I did a terrible job documenting our time with them! Saturday we stopped by my grandparents house who have now both passed away and took some pictures of G on the front step and in the booth that we grew up in (dad and me).






Saturday Night we were off to Scott and Kim's wedding. It was a perfect day & a beautiful wedding! There was some down time between the ceremony and the reception, so we pre-gammed with my family & G












Sunday morning we had breakfast with the fam and headed off to the airport. G was an angel baby and slept the whole trip home and let both Mama and Daddy sleep too. ::insert praise emoji here::

Weekend

I love being home for extended periods of time, who doesn't?! This weekend was perfectly lazy, but with enough activity so we didn't become bored.


Friday
G&I were supposed to go out and visit with friends and their babes, but G was under the weather late last week and on antibiotics, so we stayed home.




Even under the weather this sweet boy loves bath time.




J went out to celebrate Jaco's birthday - so thankful for amazing friends!


Saturday:
We went for a walk as a fam, we played, went to lunch, drove around looking at houses (ugh, the idea alone of moving is exhausting)







Then we met our bestests out to enjoy the Southlake Arts in The Square and to have dins









Sunday:
Woke up, ate pancakes & headed over to a nature preserve in Plano - I think this will become a normal activity for us. It was so nice to get fresh air, exercise and expose G to the outdoors.












& we had our firs bubble bath! (please excuse his pasta face!)








See those chompers?! There are officially 8, with the 9th coming around the corner. WHAT THE HELL!?!? This kid is going to have a full set of teeth in no time. YIKES!

Z&C - Got Married! Part I

03.26.16

Zak & Chara had dated for over 5 years. In those five years Zak had a lot of pressure from my family about making sure to "lock down" Chara. We all knew that he could not have found a better lady, and selfishly we didn't want to lose her either! As in all things, Zak proposed in his own time. Once things were official Chara got to planning right away! It doesn't seem like a year ago that she and I went to venues and started to get things rolling. It was a super fun time to help her plan.

Their wedding was so fun, filled with lots of love & definitely blog/magazine worthy in my book.
