This is my "snapshot scrapbook" of our daily doings for my children and family. I hope to preserve the "everyday" for my children and for us so that we can always read it and remember.

A Carlisle Wedding


Lee's Grandmother, Gran, once owned and operated her own Dance Studio in Alex City, AL. Her skills still shine brightly! Gran and Melba, enjoying the food at the reception.

Lee's Dad, Tyler (his brother), Lee's Mom, and Lee during the reception


Diamond Rio played in the middle of the reception. They were amazing and I sang my heart out at each and every song...

Lee and I had the privilege of going to Fairhope, AL last weekend to witness in the union of our first cousin, Maury Carlisle wed Nikki Pilot. It was a grand affair, resplendent with so much family and love, amazing food, drink and festivities. Held on the Pilot family property, the ceremony was in a lovely rough-hewn chapel and the reception was in the neighboring horse stables and tent. It was truly spectacular...and Maury and Nikki couldn't have been more in love. We want to thank Lee's parents and my mom for making the weekend possible for us! Here are a few of the photos from the weekend.

Spicy meatball and Soy sauce

Nicknames have a tendency to stick... Thanks, Mom, for these two lovely ones for my angel girls(Sull is the spicy one!). Sullivan is now proudly announcing them around town and addressing her sister as "Soy".

REI

This morning we visited for the first time our new outdoor store REI. Sullivan loved it, shrieking with delight at the hanging bikes and gear. Staring at upright canoes, she exclaimed, "Mommy, they have rocketships!" Oh, to see the world from her perspective!
