10. We took a trip to Washington D.C. at the beginning of April. James was there teaching a seminar. My parents, Thomas, and I headed up at the end of the seminar. Below is a picture of us during a tour of the Capitol.
9. We took Thomas to the A-day game to watch Alabama play football vs. Alabama. We met our friends Matt, Marina, and their little boy John Wallace at the game. We also got to visit with Josh and Mikey before the game. Heres Thomas with Uncle Mikey.
8. My good friend Brandy got married! I was honored to be a bridesmaid at their beautiful ceremony! Congrats Brandy and Jonathon! Here is a picture of me, Miranda, Brandy, and Nolan.
7. Some terribly sad things have happened too. My Uncle Danny was diagnosed with cancer back in April. He was fighting it, but had a stroke and passed away on June 5th. We all miss him dearly. No one could deliver a joke like Uncle Danny!! Heres is pic of Aunt JoJo and Uncle Danny.
6. Another bit of sad news involves my sweet dog Shadow. Shadow had to go live with my parents a little over a year ago because of his aggression. He loved being a country dog! Unfortunately Shadow had very had arthritis in his back that put him in daily pain. This pain caused him to become even more aggressive. My parents knew he couldn't handle the pain so with agreement from the vet, Shadow was laid to rest on June 13th. Oh how I miss that silly dog!! A few weeks after Shadow was put to rest a kitten showed up at my parents house. Doug named our new "sister" Oreo. Shadow hated cats. I guess someone though my parents needed a kitten. My sweet Shadow:
5. My parents took our family and Dougs family on a trip to the beach. Thomas loved everything about it! He still talks about wanting to go back to the beach.
4. James dad and Mary came up and we went with them to a wedding in Germantown, TN. It was so nice seeing James dads side of the family. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures on this trip.
3. James won a seat to play in the World Series of Poker for the 2nd time. He was pretty much in Vegas for a week and a half. He did great in the tournament and even made some money! Way to go James!!!
2. We celebrated Sherri's 50th b'day!! We had a great pool party for her with BBQ, cakes, margaritas, and her favorite fruit watermelon. For her birthday she wanted us to all to the beach and have a family portrait made. The pictures turned out fabulous! We had fun at the waterpark while at the beach too!
1. James and I found out in May that we will be having another baby in mid January!! I am 13 weeks pregnant now. I haven't felt good at all, but I think I am finally feeling back to myself. We are not going to find out what we are having. We are very excited!!!
