Last weekend, we traveled to Denison for Kristin and Shannon's wedding and all the festivities associated with it. Thursday night, I attended a lingerie shower for Kristin at her sister-in-law's house while Clint and Grayson hung out at the hotel. The next morning, we went to Kristin's grandparents for a bridal luncheon and then the nail shop for some relaxing and papmpering. Clint and Grayson swam at the hotel and went to the movies to see Despicable Me which they said was really good. The wedding rehersal was Friday night followed by an Italian dinner at a local restaurant. Saturday we met Alan, Sherrie, Matt, Allison, and Hailey for lunch and then headed to the church to begin getting ready for the wedding. The wedding was absolutely beautiful as was the bride and groom! We ended the night with a reception that included dinner, dessert, and dancing. The only snag of the day was that Clint caught the stomache bug from Grayson and didn't feel well at all, but he was a troooper for sticking it out. Best of luck to Shannon and Kristin!!!

We had a great 4th of July this year and celebrated for several days. First, we went to a party at Jay and Laura Cannon's which was also hosted by Curt and Melissa Poore and enjoyed homemade ice-cream and cookies, wonderful music, beautiful fireworks, and a little downpour! Grayson was a little fearful of fireworks anyway, but a boy was burned because he was too close to where the fireworks were being shot off, and now Grayson is terrified of them. The next morning, my sister, my mom, Grayson and myself headed to my Aunt and Uncles for our annual 4th of July family get together. My mom's cousin, Blu Sanders, which she hadn't seen in years and his wife, Babette and their son even joined us this year. We played games, worked on wedding invitations, visited, laughed, swam, and ate until we couldn't move!!! The day after we returned home, Clint's parents came over to our house for dinner and fireworks. Grayson wasn't sure about the fireworks to begin with and stayed as far away as possible. He finally warmed up to the idea and even held some sparklers!
