Happy Birthday Judson!!

Judson turned 3 on November 25th and we had his birthday party at Forrest Jumps. It was a lot of fun!! My favorite part was that I did not have to clean before or after the party! The kids favorite part was bouncing on the moon walks and going down the big slide. We had lots of friends and family come to the party and we are so glad that everyone could come.

The biggest slide show

This is a really big slide show because I have not posted anything in such a long time. We did a lot of fun stuff this summer and these are just some of the pictures to tell the story. We had a Fourth of July party in our unfinished house, we moved in August, and Judson and Lila had their first airplane trip. Lila had lots of firsts from food to wagon rides and swinging at the park. Judson and Lila got to meet Otis (Tommy's cute dog). Judson got to take his baby sister on a four wheeler ride!!! And of course there were lots of cute moments every day that I needed to capture

Long, Long, Long Time

Since it has been such a long time since I have posted anything I am going to do a little catch up. Starting from waaay back in July. Hope you enjoy the pictures!!

Visit to Grandmother and Granddaddy's House

We went to Kingston Springs to spend a few days with Grandmother and Granddaddy. We all had so much fun and were sad to leave. Judson got to do lots of exciting things while we were there. One day he went to Cub Scout camp with Granddaddy and got to be a Cub Sprout for the day. Then they went to McDonald's and ate lunch and played on the playground. We went to Boo Boo's and ate red jello and swung in the swing. We ate dinner at Bob and Martha's one night and Judson got to play with a big box of Robby's old trucks and cars, which he loved beyond measure and he got to play pool with Bob (Bob let him climb up on the table, so beware if you play pool with Judson). We also went swimming at Bob and Martha's one day and Judson showed off his aquatic skills. Judson got a new apron from Grandmother and he wore it to cook all his meals. There are too many fun things to mention that Judson did at Grandmother's house so you'll just have to check out the pictures. We really enjoyed spending time with all of our family and can't wait to see everyone again soon!!
P.S. I didn't leave Lila out she just doesn't do much except sit around and look cute!

Maw's 80th Birthday Party

Maw celebrated her 80th birthday on June, 17. On Father's Day we had a big birthday bash for Maw at Linda and Gary's house. It was a really nice party and everyone enjoyed themselves. The Collins Cousins (minus 2) had a great time playing together and helping Maw open her gifts. Happy Birthday Maw!!!

Happy Birthday Abby

We had tons of fun at Abby's 2nd birthday party. Abby had a book themed party and we love books! Judson got to make a bookmark with Thomas the Train stickers and markers and he ate pizza rolls and bananas and drank all the juice boxes. W e had a great time hanging out and playing with every body. Carrigan and Lila had lots of fun together also. They played "whose paci is it anyway." Thanks for the good time Abby!!!

We Love the Beach!!!

Our good friends Bob and Jenny invited us to go to the beach with them. We had a terrific time! The guys got to play golf and the girls got to hang out on the beach all day with seven kids. Much to Judson's excitement, we stayed in a "big, big, big pink house." Every morning, after waking up before the crack of dawn, Judson wanted to go to the beach. He had so much fun playing in the waves and tickling his toes in the water. There were a lot of jellyfish in the water and just about everyone got stung. All the kids made a habitat out of Bob's cooler and they put shells and fish and clams in it. Some nice ladies from down the beach also put a crab in there.
Lila also had a great time. She had lots of little girls to play with. She also got to experience some new flavors. Lila had her first banana and avocado while we were at the beach. Judson and Lila have become big buddies and she loves him so much.
