A Busy May!!! So much fun!

May has been a crazy month for us, but crazy with fun!  Reese is doing so well and is just getting her first tooth and just learned how to clap (her therapist and us have been working on that for 3 months!!).  Molly’s growing up before our eyes, she’s so sweet and loves her sister so much.  I was able to get away for a “girls” weekend!  Two of my friends and I went to visit two other friends that moved to Portland to start a church.  We had an amazing time!!  I haven’t been on a girls weekend since Johnny and I were married!  That same weekend Johnny got to spend some guy time with some of his good friends fishing.  Then over Memorial weekend, we got to see Uncle Shaun.  We picked up Shaun and headed to Manhattan Beach!!!  Gorgeous!!  The next day Molly got to care for a horse and then take a little ride – she loved it!  We have been so blessed to enjoy such fun times – here are some pictures from the past month.

Reese’s 1st Birthday Party!

Our sweet Baby Reese turned 1!!  We were sooooooooooo blessed to have all of our family come to the party!  All the grandparents were there and it was such a great way to celebrate the precious gift that Reese is to all of our lives.  She loved her cake as you’ll see in some of the pictures.  We look forward to what this next year will bring in her precious life!
