Our Family

About Erin

I was born and rasied in Cape Girardeau. After college I got married and we moved to St. Louis a year later. Soon after we bought a house and had a baby. Our lastest adventure was deciding to bring our family back to Cape! It's great being so close to both sets of grandparents and family!

Good Friday

 
I am so thankful to have the day off every year on Good Friday.  It was extra special this year because Trey was off.  I love so much for all four of us to hang out together even if its just running errands.
 
Started off at Cracker Barrel.  Yum Yum!
Mimi & Papa Gus

Other side of the table

Sweet little man.


Then we ran some errands, stopped and saw Ningee at work then headed over to Mimi & Papa Gus for a little Easter basket fun and a egg hunt.

He was mad because I wanted to take a picture before he looked in it.

Egg hunt!


Silly glasses


Then after nap, dinner and Colton being in bed we did some Easter egg decorating.
(Side note Frankie was sick last Easter so this was his 1st time dying Easter eggs)

Dino eggs prepped and ready to go.


He kept saying "muscles, muscles"


Helping Daddy




I think he enjoyed it!!  Next year maybe Colton can join in on all the fun!  First day of the weekend went very well!! :)  Frankie has such a personality it is so fun to hang out with him (most of the time).  We also had great family time!!  It is always great to hang out as a family!!

Happy Birthday Aunt Katie

 
Trey's little sister came home for Easter break so we celebrated her birthday with yummy Shogun's!!  I think this might be one of my new favorite places.  As long as I can remember we always go there for her birthday but this time it was so fun to watch Frankie!  He is so scared of the fire but loves everything else.  Especially when the throw the food in your mouth.  My mom was kind enough to come hang out with Colton and put him to bed so we could enjoy without a fussy baby.

Me and my mountain man (lol)

Intensely looking at something

and this is why I will never go there on my birthday!  Lol, they make you dance while they sing happy birthday in Japanese.

Birthday wish......

Then it was Frankie's turn and yes we did have to sing Happy Birthday to him first.

So happy!!

 
Happy 23rd Birthday Aunt Katie!!  We love you!

Frankie's Big Boy Room


Over the summer Frankie got a big boy bed and new dinosaur bedding.  Trey has been wanting to paint in his room since we moved in but I wanted to wait until we decided how we were going to decorate.  We finally decided and agreed on a "design".  I absolutely love how it turned out!!!
Thank you Trisha for the "RAWR means I love you in dinosaur" sign!

Thank you dad for drawing the dinosaurs for us!

Thank you Pinterest for the gutter book shelve idea!

Hi Colton!

Love!

Re-using the "Frankie" sign from his baby room!

Brynn Turns TWO!


Last Saturday we went to Brynn's birthday party.  The theme was "Tutus and Bowties".  It's so fun that some of my friend growing up have kids that are close to the same age as my kids.  I feel like they will all be life long buddies just like we are!
 
Tutus and Bowties
 


Whitney, Brynn & Ryan
Colton didn't seem to mind the bowtie and wore it the entire party.

Frankie on the other hand was not crazy about it.

Singing happy birthday to the birthday girl.

Notice daddy joined in on the birthday fun!




Brynn was taking a "timeout" with mommy because her daddy was about to have a panic attack from all the craziness.  LOL!



Colton got in on the goody bags action.


 Happy 2nd birthday Brynn!!  We love you!
