Road Warriors

We have been on the road the last 2 weekends. (We're doing our part to boost the slumping economy by buying lots of gasoline) The 1st weekend we were in Dallas at her parent's house for a baby shower on Sunday & a weekend w/ some of her extended family we haven't seen in over a year. It was a good time relaxing w/ family & enjoying a chance to get away from home for a few days. Here are a couple of pics from the weekend.
This was a picture of us before going out for our 3rd wedding anniversary in Dallas (see earlier post).Here's a picture of the shower cake. It was very well done & since they didn't serve the duck on top (which was made of solid cake) we removed & boxed it up & froze it so Cade can tear into it on his 1st birthday. Where are we going to put all this stuff? We are blessed beyond words w/ family & friends who have given so generously.

This last weekend we were in Northwest Arkansas for a wedding celebration. This picture is of me, Tim, & Allison. It was a beautiful wedding at Cooper Chapel in Bella Vista. The place was overflowing w/people 10 minutes before the service started. We had a blast spending time w/ close friends, some of whom we haven't seen in a couple of years, & were thankful to be a part of their special day.
The groom's cake. He is a Green Bay Packers Fan & a Razorback Fan, so they put the 2 together & this was the result. Another neat part of the reception was the photo booth. They encouraged everyone to get in the booth, take a set of 6 pictures & then we picked 3 for a scrapbook & the lady immediately cut them & put them on a page & we were able to write notes to the couple. There were some funny pics (kissing pics, choking pics, & goofy pics) & a great idea in place of a signature mat.
