Bahamas 2010

This year's trip to the Bahamas was all about family and fun and we had plenty of it!! It was a week of pure paradise and we're so lucky to have a family tradition that hopefully continues for years to come...

these two were quite the musical dueo

My American Idol's

No Fear

After seeing Grandma go off the diving board, Saylor followed suite! She didn't even hesitate up there and kept going back for more! I think I've got a little dare devil on my hands!

dry my eyes

You never think the day will come when you send your little one off to pre-school, well that day is fast approaching but first we started with summer camp. I thought Saylor would be so nervous and would cry and not want to let mommy go when dropping her off, but she was the total opposite and just walked right in, turned around, blew me a kiss and said "bye mommy, you run errands, I love you". As I turned around and walked away, tears started to fill my eyes. My little peanut who was so tiny and small isn't so anymore but it's so fulfilling to see them grown and learn.

Sawyer gets so excited taking Saylor to camp and leads the way

All smiles!

Walking the streets

I fell in love with the streets of Georgetown. We walked everywhere we went, and along the way, I noticed there were a lot of homes with beautiful flower boxes in there windows and beautiful front doors. I've been taking some camera classes, (which I still have no idea what I'm doing!:) but thought it was a perfect time to try out my skills!

green is my favorite color and I loved the idea of wrapping a simple ribbon around a wreath to create something so lovely

you don't see a lot of rounded entry doors and the cherrywood color is so rich and elegant

yes this was a residential home. can you image opening that door everyday.

screams traditional with a black door and lemons, I just pictured walking in and smelling fresh baked cookies at this house.

you can never go wrong with a red door

these huge trees had grown around the metal fence. i thought it was so cool looking.

Beautiful peonies were in bloom everywhere. my absolute favorite flower!

Georgetown Graduate

Can't believe my baby sister graduated from Georgetown. She has fought and beat so many odds to be where she is today and I am beyond proud of her! Kortney you wear so many hats...a mom, sister, student, daughter & friend, and you do it so well and you are an inspiration to me! I love you and the skies the limit!

You rock sista!

these two little rugrats were not behaving themselves during graduation ceremony so mommy/auntie a.k.a "me" had to take them outside and hold them hostage in the box!:))

all dressed up headed to the graduation ball. I love the glimpse of the capital in the background.
