Mark & Charla's Wedding

My cousin Mark was getting married to his sweet fiancee Charla in their home state of Texas. They were so supportive and made the effort to come to our wedding three years ago, we wanted to reciprocate....plus, they're family!!!! ;) My family lived in Texas when I was younger, so it was also nice to go back after all those years and I have never been to Austin. Since Matt was now with us, we met up with the entire family on Friday night at the Rehearsal Dinner. We were finally meeting all of Charla's family.

Reception:

 


The food was pretty amazing!!
 I think I can say it was the best food I've ever  had at a reception!!!!!
& the cake was SO yummy I had two pieces!







The wedding was absolutely beautiful.
They had a cool photo booth, open bar, great food, dancing, and many special family moments. It was a lot of fun! I am thankful to have a wonderful new cousin!!
Congratulations y'all! Here's to many more years together!

Sandy's Baby Shower

How cute are the invitations?! 
They were made by my sweet friend Ashley :) 



My sister in law Lauren and I threw a baby shower for Sandy (our sister in law) a few days before Christmas. Since they do not plan on finding out what they are having, we went for the perfect neutral colors: light yellow and green. 



We did these in lieu of games!!!
 (find them here- i get mine printed at UPS)

    

We had Crystal Light Mojito and Lemonade (keeping up with the theme here)

Enjoying the yummy brunch food.... We had banana bread, egg casserole, 
chicken salad and egg salad sandwiches, cupcakes, chips, cookies, and fruit salad. 


My mama in law made the cupcakes and cute duck cookies! 
(everything she bakes is so yummy!)



Time to open gifts!

Mustache pacifiers and Clemson items
Laughter at some of the "suggestive" clothing




A snugglebug (of course)!!

(The shirt says "Mommy and Daddy's Future Running Buddy")


Proud grandmas/mothers? I'm not sure they have names yet......





We had a fun time showering Sandy with love, gifts, food, and prayer! 
We are excited for their new adventure in parenting!! 
And we look forward to meeting baby Pepin at the end of March/beginning of April!!!
