Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Sending out some big Happy Birthday wishes to LuLu and Granddad this week! Hope the year ahead is the best one yet! 🙂
In honor of your birthdays, thought you both might like to see some pictures of the awesome son you raised. Thanks for raising such a nice guy who is a fantastic dad!
As you can tell from these pictures, Spencer is just crazy about him!
and so are me and Maxwell! 🙂
Happy Birthday Lulu and Granddad!
Again, we had a great time in Naples.
I loved going up to Waterside for coffee, shopping and checking out the waterfalls.
We rode bikes…and Spencer even got in on the action!
Maxwell learned how to drive the race car all by himself and then Spencer got to take it for a spin too…
ha! I love that picture!
Maxwell also learned how to pedal his bike! big stuff!
But, the best part of the trip was getting to hang with my boys…
and for the boys to get to hang with these awesome people.
Can’t wait for the next trip!
We headed down to Naples for a little Independence Day vacation and, man, we had a good time! As I mentioned earlier, Alabama was a wash-out the whole time we were gone so we’re so glad we got to escape the rain and soak up some FL sunshine!
We flew down on Wednesday the 3rd and the flight was great. Thursday morning we took advantage of the pretty weather and headed to the beach!
Maxwell was sure to take proper hand wear to dig in the sand! ha!
Friday morning, we once again got lucky with the weather and Robert and I played some golf. And when I say I played, I mean I drove the cart and yelled “get in the hole!” after each of Robert’s putts.
I think it helped. Robert disagreed.
Saturday morning we headed back to the beach where Maxwell really got into digging and swimming! so fun!
King of the hill!
and just a little proof that I was there too! 🙂
When we weren’t out and about, Maxwell and Spencer had a blast playing at home, especially since GJ and Daddo had all sorts of new toys for them. Yeah, these boys aren’t spoiled at all!
A new trampoline…
some awesome (and slightly dangerous) frisbees…
and new trucks!! Including an awesome cement mixer. Maxwell and GJ mixed up some Cheerios cement and made a road…smooth,no bumps!
Yes sir, boss!
Spencer perfected his crawling while we were down there. As a result, we got to hear Maxwell yell “no no no, ya-ya!” many times as Spencer crawled straight for Maxwell’s toys. Somebody is gonna get a big lesson in sharing soon!
Some other funny things…
Spencer tried out some knee pads on the rough floors…
Maxwell discovered the joys of vanilla ice cream with Hershey’s syrup!
and he also discovered the joys of his brother’s jumperoo! ha!
It really was such a fun trip. I’ve got a few more pictures to share but I’ll wait until tomorrow. See you then!
Continuing on with the last of the photos from Spencer’s baptism. Here are all the ones of Robert’s side of the family…
It was a fun day of family!
We were so grateful to have everyone together. See you tomorrow!
After Catherine took some photos of the 4 of us up at the church, she came back to the house and got some great pictures of the extended family that was there. So happy to have all of these! Today – my side of the family….
Check back tomorrow to see the Brown side! 🙂
