Reid's 3rd Birthday Party

On Friday morning, February 3rd, we celebrated Reid's 3rd birthday at Jump!Zone with 18 of his little friends... I think it's safe to say that everyone had a great time! This post has LOTS of pictures, so here it goes...

Everyone got in on the fun before the party started! (I have mainly videos b/c it was hard to not get blurry photos... I'll do some videos in the next post!)

Reid wasn't waiting around for us to cut the cake... haha!

We are so thankful for everyone who came to celebrate with Reid! It was such a special day and we are forever grateful for our BIG boy!

Happy 3rd Birthday to our miracle baby (now big) boy! (2/3/09) Hard to believe that it's already been three years since we were anxiously waiting in Austin, TX to bring you home with us forever. We love you more than you will ever know!

10 Years - February 2nd

10 years ago I was privileged to marry this man (02/02/02). We were both so young and neither of us could have known all of the things we were about to face (both good and not-so-good). Through it all, Ben has shown nothing but courage, patience, kindness, faithfulness and most importantly... Love. He has shown me great love.

As I stated earlier, Ben and I had the opportunity to escape for a long weekend to celebrate our 10 year anniversary - we had a blast! He took me to Nashville, TN where we got to stay at the Union Station Hotel... one of our new favorites! We slept, shopped, saw Music Row, ate some GREAT food (Sunset Grill, Pancake Pantry, etc), went to the strip, and just hung out together... Such a great weekend! Here are a few pics...

Me and my love
