Welcome to Miami!!

We've been in Miami for the past five days! My good friend, Michelle, got married on April 2nd. I was her matron of honor and was so happy to be a part of such a special day. The weather was nothing short of SPECTACULAR!!! We had so much fun spending time with our St. Louis peeps and enjoying South Beach.

So excited for the plane ride!!!

Fun at the pool...

Pito and Pita joined us for the festivities, a little beach-time and especially a little Gaby-time.
The rehearsal dinner...
Waiting for the beautiful bride...
Mr. and Mrs. Craig Mannion!!!
Gorgeous centerpieces!!
The wedding was on Friday, so Saturday we still got to fit in more beachtime! Sweet moment between Gaby and Pito...
The wedding was simply beautiful and we are so happy for Michelle and Craig :)

Easter Egg Hunt

We had an Easter egg hunt at Ellington's house today. We are going out of town tomorrow so it might be the only hunt we fit in this Easter. Gaby and Elli got the hang of it pretty early and had fun running around looking for their treasures.

Got a basket....ready for business!!

Found one!! Yipee!!

And here's another one...

Run for it!!!

Not too shabby :)

Rocker Girl Party

Also yesterday, Gaby's good friend, Isabel, had her 7th Bday Party. The theme was rocker girl and there were tattoos and hair spraying involved. And as usual, the awesome giant air slide!

Here is Isabel spraying Gaby's hair...

A leg tattoo...

Wahoo!!!!!!!!

I'm terrified at how old my daughter looks in this picture!!!
Where did my baby go???

Yesterday was a great day!!!

Princess Party

One of Gaby's closest friends from school, Chloe, had her 4th Birthday party yesterday. It was a princess party and even Sleeping Beauty showed up!! That was VERY exciting for all the girls. Gaby had on her princess dress earlier in the day but declared it too itchy to wear to the party.

A princess commands a mesmerized audience- and she got it!

Chloe, Sophia, and Gaby

Dyeing Eggs

We went over to Ellington's house the other day to dye eggs. The girls actually got the concept this year and did a pretty great job!!

3 yr Photos

Scanning those other photos made me realize that I hadn't scanned and posted Gaby's 3 yr photos. Sooooo, here they are for your viewing pleasure ;)

Better late than never.
I know I say it all the time but....isn't she the cutest??

Cousin Photo Shoot

Aren't they all just so beautiful (and handsome)??

Barton Springs

The weather has been so beautiful! The kids got lucky this Spring Break up until the very end. Here we are at Zilker Park checking out Barton Springs with Ellington...

These two are such cuties...

Austin Rodeo

The Austin Rodeo coincided with Spring Break this year! So we decided to spend the day there. I like the Austin Rodeo alot because it's not too big or overwhelming and it is really entertaining for the younger crowd. A couple of Gaby's friends joined us for a fun day. Everyone had a blast!!

Pony ride!

The Swine Sprints w/Ellington, Tripp & Tatie...

The UT pig won. I'm pretty sure it was rigged ;)

Ferris Wheel

The Carousel...

Rollercoaster fun...

One of those drop rides. The looks on their faces are priceless...

Biker chick!

Gaby is a real daredevil! She loved riding all the rollercoasters and spinning rides. She couldn't get enough! She really wasn't scared of anything. That's my girl :)
