More special visitors

Two of our favorite people came to meet Olivia the same weekend... Aunt Lauren and Uncle Vinny!! Aunt Lauren drove ALL the way from New Orleans on Thursday afternoon just to meet Olivia and spend some time with our family. It was a short trip as she left her sweet munchkins behind! Thanks to GiGi and Justin for holding down the fort so we could steal some Auntie time. We felt so blessed. We had a great time and she was a huge help to me (for instance when we left the park with Charlotte kicking and screaming because I couldn't carry her to the car). We also had a surprise visit from Uncle Vinny (only a surprise because apparently we discussed it the weekend before and I had no recollection... thank you narcotics). Casey and Francie were so sweet to bring us a delicious dinner Friday night, so we were able to just spend time being together. Saturday morning, Uncle Vinny and Mike came back and we had breakfast outside. This is one of my favorite memories. I love being with my family and wish they lived on either side of us. We had lots of laughs as always and tears goodbye. We will miss them until we see them again. Thanks to both of you for making us feel so loved and for spoiling our girls rotten with all of the gifts you brought!!

Thursday night we celebrated JaJa's birthday and retirement! What a big day for her. Lauren met us at Iron Cactus for dinner and we came back to our house for peach pie. Charlotte had a cookie monster cupcake instead, what a treat!


Happy birthday JaJa! We love you!

These are two very lucky girls to have such a special aunt.


Meeting the sweetest guy she will ever know!

Francie meeting Olivia and practicing being a big sister! Just 5 weeks until Finley's arrival!

Sweet family photo that Lauren took. I think my expression perfecty sums things up... I am sooooo tired but my angels are soooo worth it :)

Breakfast!

Our deck gets a serious breeze in the morning which is wonderful in June! It was pretty chilly so Livi had to bundle up!
