Mom's Birthday

Last Tuesday, July 29th, we celebrated my mom's birthday with dinner at Mimi and Papa's. We had sausage and rice casserole, fresh, boiled squash, a yummy salad with all fresh veggies, purple hull peas, and garlic cheddar biscuits. I was truly blessed with a mother and grandmother who are fabulous cooks. Thanks Mimi for a yummy feast. We had caramel pie (mom's fav) and snicker brownies for dessert. It was so nice to be able to drive over to my grandparents house for dinner and then drive back home. I love my family so much and cherish every moment spent together.

Doesn't she look young to have just turned 57?
My cutie pie mom/BaBa
Brooks is opening his present with Poppa
A new helmet...he is fascinated with motorcycles and needed a helmet to wear while he's riding his "mo-mo" around the house. It's not really a motorcycle, just a riding toy that he designated it to be!! I love his creative/imaginative little mind!!
Reading a new Diego book with BaBa
Couldn't pass up another family photo opp...

I thought this was a funny pic b/c B wanted to stand by "myselt" for the photo and then was distracted by the flowers. Typical 2 year old stuff...
