What a great 2 weeks we’ve had. My mom came out from California to visit us and Brannan’s family for the last month. She was here for 2 weeks before going back to Brannan’s and then will head home this Friday. We’ve had such a good visit..didn’t do anything special but just sat and visited. I like those kinds of visits.

Cherokee really took a liking to mom..everytime she sat down he had to get right in her lap and love on her.

Last weekend we went to Fayetteville to celebrate Nate and Izzy’s birthdays. Izzy’s is Sept. 4 and Nate’s is the 26th. A smart mommy and daddy put them together for one big party.

 We were in a hotel Friday night..swimming is so much fun with these guys..tho we all sleep good that night.

Are these not the most beautiful little men?!

We are home. Kevin and I have celebrated our annivesary since Saturday..and today is Wednesday. Saturday my mom, from California, and Brannan and her family all came down and Kevin and I renewed our vows in front of our family and friends..it was like a big party..so nice. Then Monday Kevin and I left for a few days by ourselves. I can’t tell you how great that was. No phone calls, no appointments, no schedules, we stayed up really late, slept in really late and ate whenever we wanted. It was great. As Kevin said…it was just too short. But we are glad to be home and back to life. Now….to begin our 26th year of marriage.

What a beautiful day for a vow renewal. A soft breeze. Blue skies. Friends who we love and who love us. Family. Children running and laughing. And our boys signing *Pops* as we walked down the aisle.

Kevin and I, celebrating 25 years of such a wonderful life. Kevin surprised me with our good friends singing our song.

Kevin, I still can’t help falling in love with you.

We couldn’t have gotten a better weekend.

Izzy’s 1st birthday was Friday. What a beautiful blessing he is. He is so full of life. He has so many new words, signs *pops* for either pops or Geema and if he doesn’t know the word..he just screams.

Happy Birthday Israel Curtis.
