It was an amazing day for Jennifer and Eric's wedding.  The setting was amazing and the ring bearer was pretty cute to!!!  Frankie and I started off in the "cottage" with all the girls so I could get his dress, plus this was one of the other places that had AC. :)

The first dance.

The wedding was beautiful and it was great to get to spend the weekend with the entire family.  Frankie did a great job, he walked down there like he had done it a before.  There was tons of eating, dancing and playing.  After the first dance Frankie was getting a little fussy so we decided we would pack it up and head back to Springfield, MO to spend the night.  The next morning we got up and drove to St. Louis to meet sweet baby Landen.  Congrats to Jennifer & Eric, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!!!

Oklahoma Aquarium

June 23, 2012

The wedding was until 6 pm so we got to play all day!!  The Oklahoma Aquarium was right next door to our hotel in Jenks, OK.

Frankie was super excited!!

They had this area when you walk in to touch the fish.  I am pretty sure Frankie just stuck his hand in the water.

Jelly Fish

Snack break/loving on mommy

Jeremiah feeding the turtles.

The boys checking it out.

Watching the sting rays

We had great company at the the aquarium:

Simone, Jeremiah, Samantha & Aunt Annette

I know this picture is dark but it's the only one that I have of all 3 of us.

They had a huge shark tank that you could walk through, very cool.

After the aquarium we head to Red Robin to get some lunch and then back to the hotel to take naps before go time!!!

Jennifer & Eric's Wedding Rehearsal

Friday June 22, 2012

Over the past weekend we traveled to Tulsa, Oklahoma for my cousin Jennifer's wedding.  Frankie was the the ring bearer. 

Here we were just trying to stay out of the sun a little bit.  Frankie thought he needed

to wear my "eyes".

The big practice.............

Frankie did a great job durning the practice.  He just walked right down. 

Daddy & Bride

Later that evening we attened the rehearsal dinner:

Frankie & Cousin Ashley

Me & the Bride

(not sure what is going on with my face here)

It was very close to someone's bed time since he decided that he didn't want to take a nap this day.

Family picture right before we left.

Happy Father's Day

I am so blessed to have the best father in the entire world.  He is always there for me/us and would do anything for us!!  I am also extremely blessed to have the best father to our children.  Not to mention a great father in law.  We started Father's day waiting for Daddy to get off work and come home.

This is what he wanted to do at 6:30 in the morning.

Getting his daddy snuggles in.

Helping.........

Frankie made a coffee mug at the babysitters for Daddy.  Trey asked him if he made that and he said "Soapie made it".  This kid cracks me up.

Showing all of his goodies.

Here is a picture of the mug.

Shortly after Trey had to go to bed because he had to work on Sunday.  We loaded in the car and headed to my parents house.

Reading the card with Papa.

Helping Papa open his gift.  Looking in the bag to make sure something wasn't missed.

After nap time we headed over to Trey's parents (Mimi & Papa's)

Just a little pre dinner swim.

Jumping to Mimi in the big pool.  He cracks me up because he closes his eyes and hopes for the best.

 I think at this point he was already saying "Do again" 

All the men cooking.

After dinner swim with Daddy!  Frankie is a little fish and loves to swim!

He just went under water!

We had a blast on Father's day.  It's hard to believe that next year Trey will be a Daddy of 2 boys!!!
