and so the feeling grows

this past saturday i helped host a bridal shower for my dear friend, SSG. it was a lot of work, but also really fun. i am pretty proud of the decorations we made:

these were my favorite decorations

she likes writing so we used lots of books to decorate

The bride & bridal shower hostesses

beachy

in august i went to the beach with the entire family. we all had a wonderful time. and my nieces were as adorable as always.

this one is already in 1st grade.

 the not-so-fat one can already swim better than her older sister

Boy texted me the following pictures of the fat one. The captions are his.

 i love pizza! 

 but it is so hard to eat...

problem solved.
