August Recap

August... well, it seems that August has flown right by without a blog post. So that no one misses a WHOLE MONTH of Jackson, we'll have to have a catch-up post to highlight some of our fun! Here goes...

Lots of fun decorating Daddy's Birthday Cake!

Music Day at Daycare... we love to dance!

Papa's first place pumpkin

Cruising on the fair rides

Woohoo, a semi ride - always a big hit with this boy!

Random self portrait with Mommy

Finally, a pic with Grandma and Papa and all the Grandkids!

Just the cousins

Can you believe it, Jackson already took his first airplane ride! He had a GREAT time with Daddy, Stephie, Chris and Papa T!

Checking out the sights with Daddy... I think Daddy was just as happy as Jackson to be up in that airplane!

More Wedding Shots

Yep, I'm doing it... I'm absolutely going to repost a couple of the pictures that Kevin and Gina's photographer posted as a sneak peak on her blog yeseterday. Feel free to check out the link to see a few others. She did an amazing job capturing this wonderful wedding day and I can't wait to see more!

LOVE this shot with the columns... I remember telling Erik how great it was going to look when she was taking it, and I was right!

ADORABLE kiddos that did such a great job!

Now this is some fun on the field at Memorial Stadium. We especially like Uncle Chris's Heisman pose in this pic (2nd guy from the left), so fitting for the football field!

Kevin & Gina's Wedding!

We had a great weekend - Jackson was the ring bearer in Kevin & Gina's wedding, which meant a busy and fun-filled weekend with family and friends! Soooo many pictures it was hard to narrow down, but here are some of my favorites from the weekend.

Birthday Weekend Extravaganza

Whew, what a weekend! Lots to talk about this weekend... let's see, it all begins with Daddy starting to build a deck... the deck nears completion as Mommy nears the big 3-0... deck is UP... family fun at a birthday party... and Mommy is officially 30. Good thing it was a long weekend, we all needed Memorial Day to first thank all those who've served, and second recover from all this excitement!

Daddy has the deck almost done... putting on some finishing touches with Papa

Doesn't Daddy just look evil here?! They had so much fun!

Relaxing with Aunt Steph

Got to go for a little cruise in Grandma's convertible!

Lovin on cousin Kaylee

Mommy, Jackson and Kaylee!

Grandma and Papa Cook... can you tell Jackson just saw something he liked?

Aunt Steph looks just a little too happy about Mommy turning 30... just wait, she's up next! HAHA!

Me 'n my lil man

Check out my new deck... Daddy did GOOD! =)

Jackson's 1st Birthday Photos...

Testing out a new feature I found on Walgreens photo... linking to my photos directly from the blog... how fun! =) Lots of excitement at Jackson's Birthday party!!!

Happy Birthday Auntie!

Happy Birthday to Aunt Stephie!!!! Jackson has had her wrapped around his little fingers since day 1!

Blankies

Blankies are the best! Jackson LOVES to roll around in his soft and cuddly blanket. And he always looks so darn cute doing it, too.

And if you try to take his blankie away, he is not above coming after you to get it back!
