Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Allison


Last weekend, Justin's best friend of 16 years, Jeff, married Lacy in a beautiful outdoor ceremony at the Stinchcomb Mansion in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Justin had the honor and pleasure  of being Jeff's Best Man. We had a wonderful weekend of celebrating with the happy couple and their friends and family.


Justin and Jeff at the Rehearsal Dinner at the Stinchcomb Mansion. After the Rehearsal, we had some delicious brisket prepared by the Bride's father!



Justin and I stayed at the Aloft hotel. Here we were waiting on the back patio for the rest of the crew to show up so that we could go out for a bit.


Jeff and Lacy wanted to keep it very traditional, so they didn't see eachother the night before the wedding. I had the pleasure of going out with the boys before the big day! We had a VIP loft at Ivey that came fully equipped with our own bouncer (lol!), private dance floor (Thank God lol!), and a HUGE bottle of champagne! Aside from the dance music inside, there was an acoustic artist on the Rooftop! It was extremely relaxing up there. :) We had a ball and kept the party going until 2am....I am getting too old for that lol! :)


Me and MY Best man :)


And of course a photo with the beautiful Bride.


Lacy makes Jeff so very happy, and for that, Justin and I are extremely grateful.  We wish them a long and beautiful life together......and we are ready for some Allison babies!!!! ;) Haha! Love y'all!

Superhero Day at Chick-fil-a!

A couple weeks ago, Chick-fil-a hosted one of their many themed days for the kiddos: SUPERHERO DAY!  Connor LOVES Spiderman, so I thought this would be a fun Saturday afternoon activity!~ After our big neighborhood garage sale, we loaded up and headed out!  They had all kinds of Superhero's out there: Spiderman, Wolverine, Hulk, Mr. Incredible...just to name a few. When we got there, Connor wasn't sure what to think about this life-sized Spiderman....he wanted to follow him around, and he kept yelling, "SPIDERMAN!!!!", but when it came time to let Spiderman hold CJ for a picture.....well, that wasn't happening.....at first.......

Spiderman was sweet enough to sit down to try to get on Connor's level, but as you can see, he still isn't too sure what to think at this point.....


Lol, I love this picture...."Daddy holdjoo!!" 



After Daddy and Connor posed for a pic with Spiderman, we went in, had some lunch and a free banana pudding milkshake (oh MAN, if I were pregnant, I would use that as an excuse to eat one of those EVERYDAY!....They were just about 2oz, so I ate mine, part of Justin's, and part of Connor's....And no, I didn't take ice-cream from my baby, he just didn't want it...I didn't want it to go to waste!)  After lunch, we came back out and chased Spiderman around for a bit, and FINALLY, Justin just handed Connor to Spiderman and all in the world was right :)  He showed CJ how to shoot webs, and I was able to snap a couple of pics! YAY!


On our way back to the car, my BIG boy (aka, my husband), wanted to stop and check out the new Police Tahoes.  Here are the two loves of my life posing with the Sheriff's K-9 unit.


After we left Superhero day, we went straight to Reed Stinson's FIRST Birthday party, where we met up with Richard and Benton. There was a big Nemo bounce-around, and the boys wore themselves out! Such a fun day had by all! :)

Connor's THIRD Easter

Yes, I STILL can't believe it's his 3rd Easter! I remember being overly exhausted, but over joyed that I was taking our little 3 week old to my parents house for his first Holiday :)

Here we are in 2009......


And 2010......


And here he is checking out his Easter goodies from the Easter Bunny in 2011 :)


My oh MY how time flies!  We went to our church service on Saturday night, and spent Sunday morning hunting Easter eggs and looking for the basket that the Easter Bunny left for Connor. We had plans on Saturday afternoon to attend a neighborhood Easter egg hunt, but the rain washed us out.  He have had day after day after day of rain! I am ready for some consistent sun! Sunday evening, we had our annual Easter dinner at Nana and Granddads with the family. A really bad storm rolled in right before we were to leave, so we waited it out before heading home.  On our way home, we saw some seriously flooded roads.  I was glad when we all arrived home safe and sound :)

Here are a few pictures from our Easter weekend!

Heading to church Saturday night in his super cute tie (just like Papaw wears to work....Connor says he's wearing his "tie Papaw"). We tried to keep him with us during the service, but before the service even started, he was just too busy to sit with us, so we took him to the nursery.  It was his second time to church, and his second time to the nursery, he did FANTASTIC!


Sunday morning was a bit soggy, so the Easter Bunny hid the eggs in the living room!


My little sports ball Easter egg hoarder....I believe he has the soccer ball, basketball, and baseball all in his hands.  If you read the previous post, you will notice that we do NOT have a football egg ;)



He quickly found his Easter bucket! Looks like the Easter Bunny was good to him!


I was so happy that the Easter Bunny knew he needed a Cars thermos! Somehow he always knows....



This little man had a great Easter weekend, and so did his Mommy and Daddy!


Looking forward to the weather clearning up so that we can get out and enjoy what's left of SPRiNg!
Thanks for stopping by to see what we have been up to! :)
