Our ONE YEAR Anniversary!

Happy one year anniversary sweet Will. I sure do love you and am so thankful for your love. You are a wonderful husband and partner. I love waking up every morning next to you...laughing with you throughout the day and turning in at night knowing we are going to do it all over again. Happy anniversary birdy!

1st Annual William Patrick 33rd Bday Golf Invitational

A surprise 33rd Bday party was held at Varn Country Club tonight in honor of Will. The theme was "GOLF", and everyone came dressed in their finest plaid, cardigans, cuffed shorts and pastels. Mom decorated the tables with hideous green and blue plaid cloth, William V. made a challenging croquet course in the back yard, and we teed off at 7 and played ball. Dad, mom, William and I had sneakily prepared a delicious spread and a german chocolate cake the night before and tied balloons around the yard to make it festive. Granna's Bday poem did not disappoint - complete with golf themed decorations on the paper. Thank you sweet friends and family for making Will's Bday so special.

Freddy & Will Bunyan

After a grueling 4 hour diagnostic LSAT test today, Will needed to "get out". So he headed over to mom and dads to visit. Mom was busy weeding the yard and somehow talked dad into chopping down an enormous tree in the back. Will was thrilled to have popped by at that time. "Put me to work! I've got some steam to blow off". So, they roped, and tied, and pulled, and chopped chopped chopped. T I M B E R! Nice work gentlemen. Mom even got a romantic trunk-stool carved by her hunk.

THE WALL OF BALL!

I'm loving taking underwater photos of friends... film is just so fun because I never know what I'll get. These are some of my favorites from the first batch, but theres more to come. I'd love to fill the wall by my desk with these photos. Please come take a photo with me... you just might end up on my "Wall of Ball". (Pictured: Wil, Laurie, me & Cheney, Leah & Maddie)

Welcome to the Family JAGER!

Congratulations Ryan and Lindsay on your sweet pup - JAGER. What a hunk! All skin and paws - he is A D O R A B L E and bumbly-fumbly... tripping all over himself. Wally is so excited to finally play with his new cuz. VERY soon, JAGER will be wayyyy bigger and in charge! Enjoy big cuz role while you've got it Wall!

Everyone's welcome in PARADISE!

We joined Alyssa in paradise for some cannon ball pics, doggie dunks, pooch swim lessons and a little wedding gossip. Wally was the only one that wasn't too sure about the water. He swims as fast as a motorboat - but still ain't too happy about being the boat.

Smoothies Galore!

We have been on a smoothie kick. Frozen strawberries, peaches, bananas, blueberries, yogurt, fresh juice - you name it - it's going into the blender for a vitamin-packed treat. YUM. YUM. Order up!

Camille and Bill join us for dinner

And boy was it delish! I made a yum chicken pot pie (even though it's the middle of summer), salad and mini brownies....mmmmmm. Bill and Camille brought us the beautiful little flowers and fresh rosemary from their garden. What a fun night of conversation and laughs.... oh, do come again!

Dinner with the Duggar Fam

What a good night out at Witchtree Acres with the sweet Duggar Family. We got a tour of their funky, barn-style home by the girls, had a delicious dinner and desserts (the kids mouthes were covered in purple pretzels by the end of dinner), judged a math contest between Elizabeth and Madeline, watched Emma Kate and Thomas Walton put on a dance routine and got a wealth of legal information from Stacie and Thomas. At the end of the night we picked pears and grapes from the trees in their yard and headed home under a starry night. Thanks!!!

Slip n Slide FIRST Bday!

What a fun day in the sun! Will and I drove way out Meridian to the Langston's beautiful land for a slip n slide party for Colson Cody's FIRST BDAY!!! It was a scorcher. I'm not sure who enjoyed the slip n slide more... the big boys or the babies??? Thanks Casie for an awesome Sunday.
