A Summer Weekend

Well, this weekend was filled to the brim, and so I thought I would just share a few favorite snapshots from some of the fun! 

First...this little kid...HOW is he already getting so big?! Time needs to slow down!! 

On Thursday, we called my mom that morning to wish her a happy birthday and Jane asked if she wanted to come down to Nashville to celebrate, and the rest is history. They were on their way down, and Jane wanted to "paint her a picture," we went to buy a sweet gift we had had our eye on, we put up a few birthday decorations and got ingredients for our favorite vanilla cake. 

We love a reason to celebrate! 

And celebrating sweet Nana was a very favorite!!! 

On Saturday morning, we had a few sweet friends decorating for a surprise party happening at our house later that day, so we took the kids to the Farmer's Market again, and this time, Jane was soo excited to ride the giraffe! 

You can read about her first time to the carousel here, but seeing her jump right up there was such a treat! 

We grabbed our two little donuts that at this point the kids think is a "tradition" hahaha 

Then decided to head to the park before we went home... 

These two are my very favorite haha 

We had brought our lunch, incase we were still out at lunchtime, and decided to check off our "Eat a Picnic Lunch" on our "Summer of Letter Fun."

I love these two!! ...and who knew you could bring a smoothie bowl for lunch and it would make it hours in the car?! Thank you, Ninja Creami 😂 (and our Rtic cooler haha) 

We played some more...sheesh, I love this little one!! 

Later that day, we got to celebrate the second birthday of the weekend for a fun friend at the sweetest surprise party! 

His wife and him are in our small group, and she texted me at the beginning of the summer asking if she could plan a surprise party at our house. We of course said yes, and seeing this sweet party come together was just so fun!! 

I always love seeing how others' decorate for things, and this party was planned to a tee, and just so much fun!! 

Church on Sunday was a big one too as Pierce started another ministry year serving in a leadership role, and we love getting to serve alongside him and cheer him on too!! 

From birthdays to friends' houses, Farmers' Markets, parks, family time, community and church, we are so very grateful for a big and very full, but very fun weekend!! 

Just a few little snapshots for your Tuesday!! We are keeping a sweet third little one for a while today, so I am going to give myself a little extra time keeping us with these three, and I'll plan on seeing you back here Thursday!!

Sending lots of love! And here's to hoping everyone's August is off to a very fun start!!
