Birthdays, Birthdays, & More Birthdays

Last week was filled with birthdays. Pop E's birthday was on Wednesday, Nana's on Friday and Aunt Lori's on Saturday.I am so disappointed that the camera for some reason didn't make it to all the events.
We started the celebrations on Wednesday afternoon with a party for Nana for just the girls at Mrs Beverly's house. It was luau themed in honor of Nana's love of flamingos. We had the best time!

Ruthie put her lei on one of the flamingos, so Mrs Beverly went inside at got the rest so that all of them could have one. They had the best time putting them on



Then they took them all off and as they did, Ruthie put them on


That night we went over to Pop E and Nana's for a cookout to celebrate Pop E's big day

I am sorry to say that is far as the camera made it, but no where close to the celebrations ending. On Thursday night, we headed to Tupelo to eat at Fairpark Grill for Aunt Lori's birthday. We enjoyed a wonderful meal with Papa, JoJo, Mamaw Beth, Lori and Kaylee. Ruthie was the entertainment as always

Friday was Nana's actual birthday so we had McAlister's carryout at their house on Friday afternoon with Pop E, Nana and Uncle Drew.


Saturday was Aunt Lori's day! She and Whitley came over and we enjoyed a little time in the pool with them.


We had a GREAT time celebrating the birthdays of some of the most dearest people in our lives!


Happy Birthday Pop E, Nana & Aunt Lori!!

Memorial Day Weekend!

We spent Memorial Day weekend at the cabin and had a fabulous time. Boat rides, kiddie pools, family & friends, and TONS of food! When we blew the pool up on Saturday Ruthie was so excited. She was jumping all over it and sliding and having a grand ole time. However, once we put the water in she wasn't sure about it. So, to get her into the fun her Daddy and Pop E joined her for a bit.

I think the pool was a little small for all 3 of them

Trying out the slide with water in it

Ok I decided this is really FUN!
Once she warmed up to it, she LOVED it. She played forever all by herself. Just splashing and carrying on

She always had to help drive the boat at some point during each outing. She thought she was so big. Pop E of course didn't mind having a co-captain

Riding the boat with Aunt Lori and Kaylee

She got Kaylee in the pool with her on Sunday. She absolutely loved having a playmate in there with her.

Giving the dolphin some love

"I don't know where Aunt Lori is"

"There she is, I must run as fast as I can to her"

Happy Memorial Day!
I hope everyone had as wonderful of a weekend as we did!
