Birthday Wishes

We wish Aunt Kiki and Daddy the very best birthdays!
Kiersten's birthday was Friday and as you can see she celebrated "South of the Border"...the NC/GA border that is! ha ha corny I know:)
Chad's birthday is Sunday and his celebrations are still to come.
Summer had her first craft project making both of their birthday presents. It is still a secret until the final product is finished in a week. Gotta love suspense! (doesn't the girl in the grey top look like me from the side profile?)
Summer also got to meet Aunt Bethany and Aunt Mary Ashley
She got to tour Grammy and Papa's new home
And she ate at Jim 'N Nick's Barbeque (Mama's favorite)

She also spent a lot of time with Uncle Bud and Aunt Jen BUT I am waiting for Uncle Bud to send me the photos:)
It was sad to leave our Birmingham family but we are really happy and thankful that we had the opportunity to visit! The plane ride back was mostly good with a little crying towards the end. The Southwest flight attendants were EXCELLENT! They were not only nice but one of them held Summer while and off duty Southwest pilot helped me pour the breastmilk into the bottle from a ziploc bag...leaked thanks to TSA making me open all the bottles to check and then I obviously didn't get them sealed back properly. Overall the travels were great and Summer is a real trooper. She is happy to be back in her own crib and sleeping soundly.
AND WE MISSED DADDY!

Jana - glad to hear how well the trip went. Also I LOVE your new background! It looks very similar to my favorite mommy-daughter yellow polka dot outfits. -Rachel
