Happy 3 Years

{8.8.11} Josh and I celebrated our

3 year wedding anniversary.

This year has flown by and life has been crazy busy. For our anniversary, Josh and I celebrated, by having lunch together at WENDY's. It definitely wasn't the most romantic date, but we made up for it a different day, by going out for dinner and a movie.

It sure is true how things get a bit more challenging and not so important once a baby comes into your life, but we don't need a date to celebrate being in love because we get to do that daily.

I am so grateful to have such a wonderful man in my life. He truly treats me like a princess and makes so me so {happy}. I didn't always have the best taste in guys and I never really got treated the way I should of until I met Josh. He truly is a GENTLEMAN. I am so happy Boston and I have him in our life.  Here is to another 3 years babe!

Seattle

Aunt Kiki

Crazy entertainer

Goregeous flowers at Pike's Market

The first of August I had the opportunity to go up to Seattle for work for a couple of days. I have only been there one other time when I was boarding a cruise ship when I was about 13 or 14, and I was in love. It is so so beautiful up there and is so quaint. I loved seeing all the sailboats on the water, it almosted tempted me to move up there, but then I remembered all of my Aunt Kristi's posts talking about how crappy the weather had been this year. I had the chance to go see my Aunt who lives in Arlington, which is about 40 miles north of Seattle. She lives on a 5 acres of lush greeness as well as a farm. It was fun to catch up if it was only for a few hours. I definitely will be making a trip back up there.

Daddy's Day

Happy Father's Day to the best dad in the world. Boston and I are so blessed to have Josh in our lives. He is a wonderful father and such a great role model to Boston. I am so happy he wants to be in Boston's life and wants to show him how to fish, take him hunting and show him how to ride a four wheeler.

Growing up I didn't have my dad in my life and now I know he is the one who is greatly missing out. Boston is blessed to have so many great men in his life that are great role models.

To all the AMAZING FATHER's out there in our lives, this is your day and you deserve it!

His favorite thing to do currently is pull everything out of the shelves, drawers, bookcases, laundry baskets, and his diaper bag

Loves going for cords plugged into the wall

Goes straight for the dogfood and water when the bathroom door is open

Loves to play tug-a-war with Paisley and her stuffed animal

Is almost walking, he will walk along furniture and holding on to one hand
