Balloon Race 2014

I love that we have gone to Balloon Race every year since we started dating and I love that Emmet gets more into it every year and I love that Lyla got to go for the first time and I love that my friends came to Natchez too! I know that was a run-on, but there's lots to love!

First night walk to the bluff!

Showing Lyla the Mississippi!

Morning walk to Natchez Coffee!

Babydoll Lyla!

Balloon Glow!

Seeing friends!

Lyla (6 mos) and Brian III (4 mos)

They are now betrothed :)

 Emmet (3 yrs) and Crawford (1.5 yrs)

Rowe (6 mos) and Lyla (6 mos) - they are 11 days apart!

Reene (3 yrs) and Emmet (3 yrs)

Just like college, right guys? Except for the diaper changes and baby-wearing

Howdy, Folks!

"Howdy, Folks! Welcome to the State Fair of Texas!" -Big Tex 

(or Emmet doing his spot on Big Tex impression)

Emmet and I got to have a little date to the Fair while Lyla stayed with Aunt Lali! It was so fun to have some one on one time with my little guy! 

Of course, he wants to ride the cars!

He enjoyed learning about Cotton Candy

Howdy, Big Tex

Popsicles are this boy's love language.
