Being Home

 Monday we were home and ready to party! Piper used some heels, and carried more around.  Considering she can't walk barefoot very well, she can walk in heels amazingly well.
 Daddy got the girls a new pool to use in the backyard.  While they were napping he got it all set up.
 I enjoyed it before the kids got up and drug dirt into it.

 Fynn didn't want to get in but enjoyed being outside and rolling around.
 The girls loved the pool! Until Piper dumped a bunch of dirt in there...



 But they still enjoyed being outside. 
 That night it poured down rain, so much rain we got stuck at the house and everything was closed.  Our neighborhood was hit very hard and many homes around us were flooded and several people lost their lives.  We were so lucky that nothing happened to us or our homes and both of our employers closed our offices for the day. 
 This was the bayou right by our home.  It overflowed hours before and made the national news.  It went down but this was 9 hours after the rain had stopped and it was still too high. 
 We stayed in a cuddled. 
 Piper can be so sweet when she wants to.
And Cat even came to visit us and brought the kids some surprises! I have not idea what we have done to deserve her attention but we love it!

Eric and Megan's Wedding!

Immediately after we got back from Mexico we did some laundry and headed to Austin for Eric and Megan's wedding! The first person we saw was Grandma!!

 Despite Aunt Megan feeling sick, we went and got prettied up on Friday (toes and nails).  Aunt Megan was quite the trooper.
 And then we had lunch with more Canadians! Including Pup!
 And Uncle Tim.
And cousin Mike.
 Uncle Eric got some cuddling in with Fynn before his big night out for the bachelor party. 

 Aunt Bub and Uncle John loved on Jill but decided not to take her home with them. 
 These girls passed out at the lakehouse.  They are too cute.
 After Daddy's wild night out, we met him, Pup, Uncle Tim and Mike for lunch.  Avery devoured her spaghetti.

 Uncle Tim and Mike seemed to like Texas food. 

 Fynn thought Mike was too fun.

 The girls talked Mike into chasing them around the grassy area while we had some sunny weather. 


 Then we went to check out the hotel.  The girls did not have swimsuits but they played anyway with Pup.
 I enjoyed some music by Uncle Tim and Mike.



 Then we got dressed up for the wedding.  If you did not know, I was the officiant for the ceremony.  I thought it was only appropriate to wear my badge when I walked in :)  Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures because I was busy but it was an awesome wedding and I am so thankful that I got to be a part of it.  Uncle Eric and Aunt Megan and so fortunate to have found each other and I know they will be happy forever!
 The next day we had to go and say goodbye.  Fynn loves those silly licking dogs.
 and his silly Uncle Eric. 


 Piper cuddled her Aunt Megan as much as possible. 
 And laughed with Pup. 
 Avery played with Jill, but only a little.

 Mike said goodbye to Fynn.  Despite all his time with too many kids, I am not sure kids are in his near future.  He was great with all of them though and they loved him!
 Fynn said goodbye to his newest aunt. 
When we got home I enjoyed my newest wine glass from Aunt Megan and Uncle Eric and enjoyed being home after almost 10 days of traveling. I just can't believe how fortunate we are...
