Father's Day and More

Andrea in town!
It means so much to us that Andrea came in town for Grayson's party! We loved spending time with her, as always, and it was even cooler because we got to catch up on all her wedding planning! Really fun stuff. She is just so good with Grayson and helped him open all his gifts after his nap on Saturday (of course those pics are on the big camera and I'm lazy).


Rough Riders vs. Hooks
Saturday evening after Grayson's party our babysitter came over so we could meet my parents and Andrea at the Rough Riders game. My Dad has Founder's Club tickets, which is a fun mix of all you can eat food and drinks and a chance to slip into some air condition to watch the game if needed. Our friends Dolan and Jennifer met up with us and sat at our seats with us. Good times and lots of laughs with this bunch!

Missing our better 1/5, Amanda!
Three's a crowd, Jen! 
Father's Day
I wish I could say that I made this day as special as Beau made Mother's Day for me. :/ Frankly, it just fell off my radar with all the birthday party planning. Multi-tasking is not my forte. We picked up Kolache Heaven and took it to my parents' house for breakfast and then hung out on their back porch for the rest of the morning - it was a beautiful day! And Andrea got to witness just how truly spoiled Grayson is over there. :) Grayson took a FOUR hour nap at our house later (thank you, love!) and afterward, Beau and Grayson headed to Cabella's for some manly shopping. Ordered in pizza for dinner and that's about it. :/ Definitely not the Spa Day he gave me but it was relaxing, which is really all Beau asks for these days.


Pharrs in town
We were really fortunate that the Pharrs' trip home to Texas coincided with Beau's change in travel plans so that we could all hang out! Beau really loves chatting with Matt! One of the funniest guys we've ever met. He's the one we quote all the time when we say we want all boys. "Boys export trouble. Girls import trouble." Haha! Funny dude.


Carissa and Matt arranged for all of us to meet at this really cool bar on Lower Greenville called The Bottle Shop. Monday nights just happen to be free pizza night (score!) and our group took full advantage! This place was SO cool - really quaint and authentic and a fun, relaxed atmosphere. I loved, loved seeing all the girls (we really missed a few!) and catching up. These times are getting fewer and fewer for me and I hate that. We loved being back in Dallas too even if it was just for a few hours!
A pretty good turn out! Only missing the girls who moved out of state.
Trish just got fabulous new sunglasses. We thought this was noteworthy.
Mother Goose! 
Grayson and I went to story time at the library like we've done plenty of times before but this week, it was different! Mother Goose (a local celebrity as we've seen her around town several times) was visiting and the whole time was dedicated to her! She did an amazing job with the kids and her being a good ventriloquist really holds their attention! 
She was actually pretty funny!
He stood the whole time and was mesmerized by her.
