Here's the exciting news!

Paisley!

Yay!!

Night Out with Nevy

I will apologize first saying I wish I took photos last night.

Aaron and I decided we didn't want to cook last night so we decided to go to Hickory River Smokehouse which is just down the street from my house. Since we were out playing with Nevan in the driveway we decided to take him along (after we asked Steph's permission).

So we went and feasted on garlic mashed taters, sweet corn, mac n cheese, smoked beef brisket with mild BBQ sauce and cornbread. Nevan loved all of it! And he was a very good boy (he usually is when he's not around Mommy). We were having such a fun time that Aaron said "we should take him out to eat with us once a week." So I think we'll do that. It gets him out of Steph's hair for a little while and Nevan's a cheap date (we bought one extra side for him and shared the rest so he only cost us $1.25). LOL

Once we were done eating we decided to run to Menard's to check on chain link fence prices and grab a couple other random items. Nevan likes riding in shopping carts! He gets this big grin on his face once you start to push him backwards. Again, he was a very good boy except when he started smelling like poo.

We also wanted to run to Petsmart to check on pet supplies and look at the fish. Nevan wasn't too interested in the animals, but we let him drag his hand along the Molly tanks and watch them follow his tiny fingers. We could tell he was getting tired as every so often his eyes would droop. He was asleep when we pulled back in the driveway.

Oh, fun times. :)

Check out my new car sign!

What do you think? It's simple and to the point. And I didn't want my phone number on there since it's my cell phone and my only line. The worst thing would be driving down the interstate and having some creepster call me and say something like "I'm driving right next to you..." yeah, creepy.

Aaron and I are off to Ohio this weekend! We leave tomorrow night for a nice 3-day weekend. I hope we can relax and have some fun. I'm looking very forward to it!

On the agenda:
Air Force Museum
Skyline Chili
Visiting Aaron's friend Brett
Visiting my cousin Amanda & Kirk, Brady & Bethany
Visiting Aaron's Grandma and extended family in southern Ohio

We wanted to take in a Reds game, but it won't work out this time. :(

cUpdate...

aka cupcake update. Today I had the lavender honey... I didn't think it was that bad at the time, but I keep burping up the taste of herbs. Gross. The frosting was again stellar though. So there's that.

I'm now done with weddings until July, so I should have a little more time to post in June. Well, photographically speaking at least. Saturday I have a bridal shower and a bachelorette party and then Sunday I have another bridal shower. Whew!

The second weekend in June, Aaron and I are planning a trip to Ohio to see one of my cousins (Amanda) and her family and then move on to see some of his extended family. Hopefully it will be a relaxed (read: not rushed) long weekend. I'm using my last vacation day until August 1, so it better be good!! :)

The weekend of the 21st I'm going down to STL to visit the Steeles and take some baby portraits for them. Mim and Cora, here I come!

Aaron has been talking about me going camping for some time now, so he and some of our friends have been planning a camping trip (somewhere in Indiana along Lake Michigan) for the last weekend in June.

So, basically, even though I won't have any weddings, I won't be home at all the 4 weekends in June either. Fun, but kind of sad. I want to spend some quality summer time with my house. :(
