sunday night dinner

Every Sunday night my mom hosts dinner for the family. Most of the time she makes a BIG (duggar style) pot of soup but every now and then she mixes it up. And of course dessert too! This past sunday she made cupcakes and oh my they were delicious.. right kathryn?! =)

Here are some pictures from sunday at grammas:

I realize I am talking about dinner but have no pictures of the food. I will have to get some next week! These babies are camera hogs.

I just want to say how much I love and adore both of my nieces. What a huge blessing they both are and I am so excited that I get to be their aunt! They are so special to me and I cannot wait to watch them grow up.

I absolutely LOVED getting to spend so much time with Ivy her first year of life. Thanks to Prav for allowing me to take last minute trips to San Antonio almost every weekend and thanks to Kevin and Chaiss for letting me move on in. Although you (ivy) may not remember, we have so many memories together that I love. Some of my most favorites are laying out in the sun in your parents room, rocking you back to sleep after a feeding in the middle of the night, and the times I got to get you out of bed in the morning cause that means I got the morning hug! I love you Ivy and I can't wait until I see you again.

I am also so grateful that I live in the SAME city as Staples! How fun this year is going to be! We will be able to walk Memorial Park, go on lunch dates and hopefully your mom calls me often to babysit! I am so excited to make memories with you and watch you grow.
