Goodbye Party

Last night we had a going away party for some of our friends.

Matt and Katie {ps. this photo was stolen from her Facebook because it’s super cute and I completely forgot to take photos of adults last night, haha!}

Since I didn’t get shots of us together last night… here are a few from the past.

Their going-away cake that Whitney made

As mentioned, I forgot to take pictures of adults, but I managed to get a few of the kids. Knox has pretty much the best kid-hair ever.

Nolan and Brody: Double Trouble! They are the same age and their parents are best friends so they are always together. Pretty sure they will be college roommates someday.

Sweet Cadence may or may not have mistaken a marker for a tube of lipstick… {Don’t worry, the markers are nontoxic!}

It’s sad to see Matt and Katie leave, but I am excited about what is ahead for them!

 

Brett Eldredge Concert

While Christopher was gone this past week, my friend Lilly and I drove to the Snowden Grove Amphitheater for the FREE (sponsored by Kix 106) Brett Eldredge concert! We had a great time!

Lilly and I at the concert!

Highlights from this evening included, but were not limited to:

1. Eating a corn dog bigger than my head.

2. The guy who attempted to seduce Lilly (and me by default) into coming to sit with him and his friends. He failed miserably. Simply because he never bothered to use words. He just walked up to us, tapped Lilly on the shoulder (she was sitting on the aisle seat), walked away, turned back to look at us, and then BECKONED us to come. No words. Just motioning for us to join him and his buddies. You guys, we died laughing. I know that’s not a nice way to respond, but we just felt so uncomfortable and awkward and didn’t know how to handle it.  In fact, to give you an idea of how we responded, please see this clip from Perfect Couples of Julia being asked out at the gym {ignore the part with Vance and Amy for the purpose of this post – it will flip back to Julia again after a second}:

It wasn’t necessarily surprise that we were being hit on, but more surprise at the way it happened (I mean, really, just beckoning us?!). Oh my, it was awkward. And we were awkward in return. By the way, if you haven’t seen Perfect Couples before – it’s pretty hilarious. But anyway moving on from that awkward moment…

3. Singing our hearts out to country music on the drive home. I absolutely loved that!

4. Obviously the concert itself! Brett Elderedge was great! He was talented and entertaining. He did makes us cry, though. He sang a song which I hadn’t heard before about a lady who has Alzheimer’s and thinks that one of the guys who works at the nursing home is her son, Raymond. Um… tears, you guys. Listen here:

All in all, a pretty great night!

Trampolines and a Photo Shoot

Last Friday I went to Sky Zone (an indoor trampoline park) with Abigail and Anna Grace! 

We had a great time! Makes me want a trampoline in our backyard so I can bounce whenever I want. Oh, and yes, I rock tie dye like it’s 1960.

And on Saturday I had a photo shoot with Mallory for her birthday party invites! Look how cute some of the shots are:

She is such a doll. I can’t believe she will be ONE at the end of this month!
