So, I am WAY behind in blogging and am going to try to play catch up. Life has been crazy this spring and hopefully after this post you will see why!

On April 26 I had my first baby shower!! It was thrown by the college minister's wife, Shelley, and a college student who I have mentored the past year, Katelyn. These girls have been such a blessing in my life and made me feel so loved and appreciated! We had some yummy snack foods, played a few fun games, and laughed a lot!

On May 16 I had my second baby shower! This shower was thrown by three close friends - Courtney, Tera, and Stacy. They did an amazing job with the invitations, planning the brunch menu, and decorating. Everything was perfect! My mom flew in from Georgia just for the shower and was able to see our home in Texas for the first time. I'm so glad she was able to do this - it meant the world to me :). It was such a blessing at both of the showers to be given to so generously!!

On May 9 Wesley graduated from seminary with his Master of Divinity degree!! His parents and grandparents drove all the way from Georgia to be with us on his special day. We had so much fun with them! I am so proud of Wesley and all of his hard work while at seminary!


















The last week in May we went with my family to the beach in Isle of Palms, SC. We stayed in a beautiful home just a block away from the beach and had our own pool. My grandparents, my mom's parents, were able to come and it was so much fun having them there! We did a lot of laying out, swimming, walking on the beach, reading, and of course EATING! I think my favorite meal was at a seafood place called Sullivan's where I got blackened Mahi Mahi with an amazing dill-cucumber relish on top. The fried green tomatoes and hush puppies were also amazing there! We were also able to see my cousin Mandy and her husband Nelly who live in Charleston, SC.
