On my mind...

There are a few things going on in this post, so stick with me.

One: I want to post some new pictures of my sweet Grace Elaine...but I don't have any :(
(hint, hint Tony and Sarah)

Two: My cousin Melissa had her sweet girl a few days after Gracie was born...

Introducing Taylor Elise...

Taylor and big sister Ashleigh

Three: Mexico :)

I am going back to Mexico this summer! July 19th-26th :) Wanna know the best part? Drew is coming too! When I was looking up these pictures my heart started remembering our trip last summer. These faces, those stories, the friendships made in mexico and then ones I got to bring home with me :) It's safe to say that thoughts of Mexico will be dancing around in my head until July 19th. More news to come on this topic...

Four: go here---> noahsteven.blogspot.com

and do what Adrienne is asking.

I mean... do what she is asking, please :)

Of, course, because I am not bossy or anything ;)

Introducing Grace Elaine :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I flew to KC tonight and got to the hospital just in time for the final few pushes and got to meet little Gracie as she entered this world. It was the coolest thing ever! Sarah made labor look like a cake walk and managed to look beautiful the whole time. Grace is perfect and healthy and completely beautiful. These pictures don't due her justice...


I really should be sleeping because it is 4:30am and my alarm is going off at 7am, but I am too excited and wanted to share a little bit of her. Many more (even cuter if you can believe it) pictures to come.


This little princess is such a blessing and I am crazy about her already!

Here are some random snapshots of our weekend...

We celebrated (in blue:) the Cleveland's BOY news :) with dinner, gelato and games!



We hung out at the Grave's friday night to celebrate a few things and play some games :)


After a few rounds of Apples to Apples,
MadGab provided us with A LOT of laughter...even after everyone else fell asleep


everyone else fell asleep :)


Sunday at church was equally wonderful with our friends. I looked around a few weeks ago while sitting in church and it hit me in a new way just how blessed we are and how MUCH God has given us this past year. We have truely genuine and wonderful friends who love us and love The Lord, and a church that we adore and are proud to be a part of.
