Mr. and Mrs. Blake Grubbs

Blake and Allison's wedding day finally arrived!!
Long awaited, but proof yet again that God's timing is perfect.

They asked Kate to be their flower girl and Carter to be their ring-bearer.
And Josh was one of the groomsmen.
Melted my heart to see my little man up there with Josh...looking all sharp in their suits.
She told me later this was her favorite part...exact words were "I was walking down that aisle with a huge smile on my face!" I should have taken a picture of Josh's face during this moment. He was holding back tears...he couldn't help but imagine the day that Kate is the bride coming down the aisle, beaming.
Mr. and Mrs. Grubbs! YAY!!!
I love Josh's expression as he watches them.
My date. Isn't he handsome? : )
Team Reed (minus one...Mollie stayed with my sweet friend Melissa).
Georgia boys
I love how the kids all gathered to watch Allison dance with her dad.

They had a photobooth set up at the reception with all kinds of fun props.
Here's a friend shot.
We did a family one too, but I forgot to scan it in to post it on the blog. Oops!
But it makes us happy every time we see it on the fridge : )

Hudson was very intrigued by the lights.
A little Cupid Shuffle

I love, love, love Allison and this picture made me smile!
I felt bad afterwards for laughing at Blake's expression though,
because he said he had just gotten bubbles in his eyes.
So thankful that we've had the privilege to witness this love story from Day 1, and to take part in a greatly anticipated wedding day. Looking forward to continuing the journey together!

St. Patrick's Day

It's that time of year...the one day out of the year that I buy Lucky Charms for my kids : )
It's just a silly little family tradition...no real rhyme or reason behind it, just a fun thing to do on St. Patrick's Day. And it sure was cute to hear Hudson call them "Chucky Charms" this year.

Franklin County Airport

Carter's class went on a field trip today to the Franklin County Airport. We got to learn all about how smaller airports work, about the different kinds of planes and helicopters, saw several take-off and land, and the kids even got to sit in an airplane! Cool stuff. I could see Carter's wheels turning...he loves to know how things work!

We wrapped it up with a picnic lunch on the lawn,
enjoying the beautiful weather...fun field trip!
I think Mollie had enough fun for one day : )

Mollie likes to...

Mollie likes to play with her baby doll,
and it's a bonus when they can dress alike.
She likes to be with "Dah-der"
(she's also learned how to cross her arms, which cracks me up)
and she likes to be with "Hudso" too.
Mollie likes to read books.
This was so precious to hear Hudson reading to her (not actually reading the words, but it's one that he's memorized so he could figure it out by the pictures).
And do you see that she's laying her head on his shoulder?!
Stop it. So cute.
Mollie likes to laugh a lot, and she also
likes to play "Mommy" with her purse and baby.
And of course, she likes to be with her big sister!
Mollie likes to be silly.
And I like to watch her.
