Friday was Lauren’s bridal shower thrown by Caitlyn and Candace. It was such a nice shower. The girls did a really good job. Lauren got to relax (except for the newlywed game) and open some presents.

Friday night was the rehearsal dinner at the Conch House. It was beautiful on the water and the weather was perfect for an outdoor event.

Florida Trip (Family Pictures)

This past weekend, we went to Florida for Lauren and Kevin’s wedding. It was beautiful and we had a great time! We were definitely tired when we got back though. I’m sure everyone else is recovering too. It was so great to see everyone for the weekend and it was especially awesome to meet our nephew Cameron, for the first time. He is such a cool little guy! We absolutely love him!

Thursday we took family pictures. I can’t wait to see the real ones, but here are a few that I took.

Easter Sunday

Easter weekend at the cabin

Every year we go to our friend’s cabin on the Saturday of Easter weekend. We hang out, play games, and have a big meal. This year things were a little more interesting….thus, the most bizarre blog post ever. When we pulled up there were 2 huge donkeys standing right in the middle of everyone. The cabin is in a huge field by the woods. The donkeys were a little concerning because they wanted to get in the action and wanted to play with everyone. Considering how they kick, this was a little concerning with dogs and children around…not to mention the cars. Flash took a special interest in the wild donkeys and decided he would be a punk and torment the donkeys. Flash didn’t realize that the donkeys were just as interested in him and they followed him everywhere.

This post really is ridiculous. Here I am chasing a donkey away from the house with a huge stick.

Flash did such a good job playing with Cameron and Mike’s twin girls. He is so good with the little ones. They were having a blast giving his extra treats and playing “catch” with him.

Easter Eggs

IMG_1621IMG_1620

Our family friend Debbie Shiflett had the best idea for Easter eggs. We decorate eggs every year and try to do something different each year. This year we did blown eggs with decoupage. We used cocktail napkins, orgami paper, and tissue paper to do our eggs this year. We were really pleased with how they turned out.
