Pool party at the Cottinghams.
Tori was jumping in like a crazy lady

This is my cousin Blake's younges, Brent, isn't he the cutest little boy you have ever seen?

The crazy thing is is that he is an exact replica of his dad.

Mr. and Mrs. Nick Cottingham the cousins at the reception.
Malorie 7, Kaylie 7, Makala 5, Tori 4, Aiden 3, Alli 2, Brent 1, Nolan 1.
they had such a great time together, dancing and running around.

So i had to put this picture in because we were all truly amazed that Allison actually walked all the way down the aisle. She followed Malorie and tossed her petals beautifully.

The bride and her daddy.

The girls stood up in their spots the entire ceremony. Alli did not make it the entire time, she took a break and went back with daddy, but at the end went back to her spot and walked back down the aisle.

Wedding Day

Beautiful flower girls

The family!!!!!

Texas here we are...

The girls were so excited about riding in an airplane to Texas. Waiting patiently in the airport. They were very good on the ride. Hanging out with our Texas friends: This is Aunt Crystal and Baby Ansley. The girls loved baby Ansley and didn't stop talking about her. We got to see them a couple of times and it was great visiting. The girls particulary liked hanging out at Uncle Ty's house.

4th of July

Enjoying a holiday at Lake Warren. the girls did 4 boxes of sparklers, and it never got old.

2 Babes on a Boat. We were so ready for the race of a lifetime. We even made posters and had decorations for the paddleboat. The race was from the big dam to the beach, that is pretty long when we were tired before we started just getting to the start line. Not to mention it was cold and pouring down rain. WE WERE SOAKED!!! We did get 3rd place and ribbons :) (shhh...only 3 boats entered) We were so tired by time we got to the beach, Jack on a pontoon towed us home.
We had so much fun

The girls competed in the kids games. A softball toss and frisbee throw. It was pouring down rain the entire time, but the girls held out.

Tori got first place in the frisbee throw with a distance of 33 feet.
