5th annual girls beach trip

BellaRose went on her 1st girl's beach trip and it was a success. i was afraid that sweet girl would be more like birth control for the ladies but she did fabulous (except at night, and just for me, but that is another story). we have been going on the beach trip for 5 years. it all started when, rachel (top right) was getting married and we all lived together on Maney Ln. we thought that we would send rachel off for her marriage with one last girls beach trip. since we have all gotten married one summer at a time and now we are starting to have babies. we have moved away, gotten jobs, quit jobs, moved back, had disappointments, and many many joys and through it all stayed very tight. I am so thankful for these wonderful women. the trip was amazing, and relaxing, and we may have learned a few dance moves from "so you think you can dance". we did miss becky, because of her morning sickness could not come, and next year we will trade in one baby (sweetie baby) for another (becky's) . there could be the potential for some pregnancies which would be so exciting. it is amazing where God takes us in our life, but your friendships remain so rooted and strong. these are some amazing women here and i hope that you get the chance to meet them. your life will be so much richer for it. of course we said the whole time we would take a group picture and never did so you will have to piece together the pictures. what good friends!















B-Rose had her 4month doctors appointment yesterday. she had to get some more shots and it went very smoothly. they seem to be over before they even start. She is weighing in at a whoping 12.12 1/5 pounds and standing in at 25 inches tall. Dr. Ericco says that she is doing wonderfully and to stay the course. he never tells us what percentile she is in, but from the charts we have here she is right smack in the middle. what an outstanding baby!!




wanted~ the perfect wide leg jean. i have tried on many. from sevens, joes, j-brand to old navy etc. i have not found them yet, but i will, oh i will. i will continie to seek and to search and most importantly not to settle. i am about to order these to the right. i will let you know and they may appear in the "special finds" category! i do this search for you the reader ; ). this is purely unselfish of me!

Oh man I got teary looking at these, it was so hard to not be there. thanks for putting up pic's though! I'm so proud of BellaRose for doing good I prayed that she would.
I like the one with Rachel, Niki and you, because you don't see BellaRose at first but she is there, it's like where's waldo.

What fun! I'm so glad BellaRose got to join in! I've always been a little jealous of ya'lls beach trip... they always sound like so much fun! Cute pics of BellaRose too.. she is getting so big!

It looks the trip was fun--what a great treat! And glad to hear BellaRose had a good check-up. Too funny that Walker is bigger than she is & 2 months younger!! How does she feel about younger, larger boys?? :)

I'm jealous about the beach...you look so tan! I'm pretty pasty and have a feeling I will stay that way for a long time! I'm glad you had a good time. You should try Paige denim. I like them a lot.

Fun fun fun, wish I was a roommate then.
Sweet little pea, she's so your baby, and maybe a little bit of Worth too. Can't wait to see or hear about the jeans, hopefully you won't have to send them back because they will make you look like a HOT mom.
