The Come Back Kid...

Look who's baaaaack!! After spending the weekend in Nashville with all my adoption peeps - it inspired me to get back into blog world. I've been gone far too long don'tcha think?? AND... the blog is public again. Hoping that there are no weirdos out there. So, if you are weird - please go away. thank you. moving right along...

Well, let's just dive into some pictures.... mmkay? Because really... that's all you want to see. So, for those of you who don't know.. AGCI had their annual picnic in Nashville and we loaded up the car and headed out to see our friends!
Off we go...

We made a pit stop in Indianapolis to see the Alexander crew! :) Hannah & Chloe are too cute! See you all again in a couple weeks!!

Then we stopped in Louisville for the night...

Couple more hours of driving and we made it to Nashville. This happy camper loved the king size bed!!

Friday night we went to the Luchts & met up with some other families. All these little ones are within months of eachother in age - SO fun! Well, Jaxson's little tantrum was not so fun.. but just ignore that. And look at sweet little Ab up there.


Saturday was the picnic. BIG group. Little game of where's waldo for you.. can you spot J and I?


We got to meet up with lots of our "online friends". It was so nice to meet some of them in person. Whitney is one of the sweetest people!


Noah is a BUSY 2 year old. It's hard to get a picture of this little cutie because he is always on the move!

Silas has some of the prettiest eyes. I always love his facial expressions.

Oh sweet Zoe! This girl is cRaZy fun!! She is a HOOT!

Jax and Finny playing in the water.

Tim, Pat & the kiddos in downtown Nashville


So... as you all know... Jody and I have been planning Jax & Zoe's wedding for like umm the past year and a half. Well, little did we know... that Zoe would just be the bridesmaid. Look 2 pictures below...

These 2 little lovebirds hit it off. Well, I don't think Callie had much of a choice. Jaxson LOVES Callie. And I mean LOVES. He could not keep his hands off of her (no I am not exaggerating). He wanted to be sitting on her lap, hugging her, touching her leg, standing by her, staring at her, etc... It was pretty funny. So... we'll just have to see how this little love triangle plays out.

Jody & I. Apparently someone didn't tell me to put a brush through my hair. Sheesh Dawn - get it together.

Ok.. don't judge me. But, this was Jaxson's breakfast one morning. Hey... we were on vacation so whatever.

Aren't they cute?!?! Oh how I love them...
Sunday we went to Centennial Park... gorgeous!

Jaxson & Finny had lots of fun playing. They had us cracking up!

They put on a dance show for us. Finn has some serious moves...


Does it get any cuter than this??? Sweet little buddies.

Fun night with the Hulls!

And that's it. That was our first little roadtrip as a family of 3! :) We had such a great time and wish we could have spent more time with everyone, but all good things must come to an end... right? Well... at least that's what they say.

(Ok... so since I was a MAJOR blog slacker - did I at least make up for it with the gazillion pics I posted?!)
