If you're happy and you know it!!

Truly I have been spoiled by all the exciting things I got to have in one little weekend.  Instead of wishing for more time, I will be thankful for all these fabulous things to be excited about... I will try to bundle them nicely here but pretty sure I'm gonna get a little jumbled!


Friday night we went straight from Huntersville to the Lynch household where we found a big bundle of people we LOVE! Kristina was in all the way from Colorado and everyone else convened in Graham to celebrate Baby Boggus and time together of course.

Parker and Tinley were with us and although much past their bedtime, they soaked in as much as they could as well!

Tinley couldn't quite figure out that baby in the belly thing. Kristina was a great sport as showing her belly over and over...and over!

Look like Andy is teaching Tinley something about this toy...or is she teaching him?

In Parker's attempt to stay awake he went back and forth between bouncing off the walls and playing his DS... with many cozy seats available:)

Is Tinley trying to rest her eyes while Anna holds her or just tired of Mama's flash in her eyes?

Here we are with a few tiny guests. In college we spent every night together like we did this night...talking, playing, laughing, and sharing life... How blessed I was to have these ladies as friends and roommates then..and to share my new roommates with them now:) 

We did have to leave before midnight struck although Parker and Tinley thought they would continue the party at Booya and Grandaddy's. We did eventually go to sleep! Tinley was a little bummed that her friends Lydia and Claire were asleep Friday night but not to worry Lydia made a little visit the next morning. Was she excited to see her..I'd say so!

 Then shower time! 

What a beautiful pregnant lady Kris makes...Baby Boggus already looking cute in that perfect little bump!

So many great photo ops that it takes more than one camera...here is my (inspired me to blog) friend taking pictures of taking pictures! So sometimes we might get carried away!

Much to our impatience, Kristina and Justin have decided not to found out if they are having a boy or girl. We made some predictions. Sheryl and Mom think girl...

The rest of us leaning towards a boy...I guess part of us will be right:)

Lots of little cuteness at this shower. So great to see Mandy and Savannah!

Happy baby shower!! 

This normally would have been just too much fun already, but we had more celebrating to do! Happy Birthday to Booya today!  We celebrated her birthday last night. We started off with our 3rd annual scavenger hunt (and the first one not won by the Bullis family:(. We are SURE something went wrong there...It was lots of fun and some were quite the challenge this year. If you're looking for some good riddles to solve, call me and I'll send you out!!
When we got back, some kid sized games for the little ones.


*Here is a not so hard example of our scavenger hunt: Where Carolina fans get their legal stash of drugs...
Answer: Tarheel Drugs...

Happy Birthday Mom! You sure deserve the very best!

Oops, fogot to take a picture before the kids got everything off the cake. Booya was sure to share with everyone before the cake was cut!

There was lots of great family time, but I missed a few pictures here at the end. I was getting a headache and had to turn in early...I guess I was about to bust with all these great celebrations in one day!

*Happy Birthday to Eli today too!! Wished we could have celebrated with you!
