This weekend consisted of a couple celebrations! Friday night we grilled out for Jamey's dad's birthday. Mr. Jimmy, Mrs. Judy and Nathan came over and we had a great dinner! Nathan and Addison had such a good time playing and we had a good time visiting with them as well.

Addison sporting her crown that she made in school... and of course her backpack and credit card!
After we ate and Addy went to bed Jamey and I went down to the garage to stain his latest project. He made a retaining wall for our flower beds out front. I have to admit that I was a bit nervous at 1st, but they turned out really great!! He's always telling me that I doubt him too much...maybe I should work on that. Staining was actually really really relaxing! We sat downstairs for the longest time staining and talking.. it was great! Saturday Addison helped daddy with the rest of the woodwork. It was so so cute seeing her down there helping and such a sweet father daughter moment. Seeing those 2 together are some of my most treasured times. After she helped daddy for a while, she and I went back up stairs to play.
retaining wall before installation.. I think it is super cool~
Helping daddy work!
I thought she was playing in her room, as she does SO well (huge blessing), and I came in to find her laying on the floor half way under her bed. I asked her what she was doing and she said "I workin" HA HA... how funny.
So proud of her arrangement!
A "poppy spider" as Addy named it after Jamey told her it was a grandaddy spider! LOL
Sunday was a HUGE day for us. Our 1 year wedding anniversary!! What an awesome thing. This has really been an extremely incredible year. I would venture to say, but not to be corny, that it has been the best year of my life. Who would have known marrying "the jamey" would be so great? ha ha ha ha.. jk.. I mean, gah, I had him from "are you the band?" 8 years ago!!! :) I love my family and I can not WAIT to spend the rest of my life with these 2 fabulous people.
