More Family Fun In Wedowee!!!















We celebrated the 4th of July in Alabama this year with lots more family! It was so much fun getting the chance to see Dick and Aurelia, Angelia, and Hannah with her 3 kids. We all piled in Robert and Doreen's cabin, along with the Thornton's too. There was fun and games, swimming, boating, and of course, eating! Spence ended up becoming good friends with Ava, who wanted him to do lots of things that he just didn't really understand how to do. For example, SIT for longer than 2 minutes. She really wanted him to sit next to her during the fireworks, but he was so excited he ran around in circles most of the time. They loved the fireworks and eating smores again! It was also nice to hear humorous stories of Doreen and her siblings growing up and how their parents handled certain situations versus how they are now. I didn't have a sister growing up, but could only imagine the additional drama and excitement that would have added to my life! Being around family is one of my favorite things to do, especially when you don't get the oppurtunity to see them that often. It's great to have so many different personalities in one house, and watch them all come together to be united.

  1. What a great weekend! I always love being around Doreen and her sisters...They are HILARIOUS when they're all together! And I love hearing their crazy stories too!

    P.S.- Love that cherry outfit of Jaidyn's! I just bought the same one for Maddie last month!
