If possible, I think I overuse the word "blessed" sometimes. Thought I'd mix it up a lil'...I checked, "joyful" is a synonym when blessed is defined as "happy"...I couldn't think of a better group of words to describe this past weekend.
Someone (me) forgot to put the camera card in and I didn't get pics of them all - here they are, some in "mental pictures"...
Getting a bee in our bonnet Friday evening and leaving while there was still "bright" in the sky...enjoyin' reachin' back to take John's hand every so often during my "are you still awake" checks...enjoyin' our Friday, get-home soundtrack.
Celebrating Corben's 3rd Birthday! Watching all the kids tumble, play & ultimately wear themselves out at the party. Cake and ice cream, obviously.
Hugs from Meemaw & Papaw

McDonald's for lunch - John getting his 1st Happy Meal. There might never have been a cooler toy than SPIDERMAN! Enjoyin' our cheeseburgers back at Nana & Pappaw's...

Enjoyin' the view ~ soakin' up Saturday

Visits w.Mimi & Aunt Haley (not pictured) - but I heard it was nice. Lil' birdie also mentioned that he didn't know who was soakin' up each other more ~ Ella or Aunt Haley :)
a day of "glorious" wind

simply, cold beer

Gettin' the run-down at "Camp Seth"

Races

Some runnin' their own "path"

Exploring :)

and...break - time to hydrate

sweet Ella Bella having her own fun w.Nana

Celebratin' Taylar's 9th Birthday! All the cupcakes did get eaten - likely in record time!

Cousins - bees knees

Sunday porchin' ~ more sunshine, less "glorious" wind

A quick, girls trip (not pictured) to the Briar Patch ~ included a few flowers bought, ideas hatched, "egg-cellent" discounts and a quick store run for mo' beer :)
bare feet ~ essential to "joyful" weekends

pulling out & handing down some vintage awesomeness (Tay, you make me so proud)

deciding to hang around and make a day of it ~ yes, it made us all smile

more trips across the yard to Granny & Pappaw's

capturing Ella & John-filled moments (priceless)

catching a "Sunday in the South" moment ~ eating ice cream sandwiches & dreamsicles
(only a moonpie could have completed it more)

Riding home to Raleigh, full hearted. A blessing to be with family, to celebrate birthdays and bank some moments to carry us over till we're all together again.
