Over Memorial Day weekend we went to good ole Marshall, TX to spend some time with the family. It was one of my favorite weekends EVER! We had a great time just relaxing and playing with the cousins on Pops' ranch. Mark and I celebrated our 9th anniversary with a night out on the town in Shreveport. We also spent one day out at my brother's lakehouse with the whole family and some BBQ. Then, we went to a birthday party for my sister-in-law, Jolie. It's just so nice to get out of DFW every now and then and enjoy a slower-paced life! Pretty sure I'm still a country girl at heart!
Picnic on a pretty day!

Well, hello Molly cow! (or Mommy cow as Nash and Grace call her)
Off they go again!

Girl time!!! Grace, Amy and I took a walk to pick blackberries. Notice the difference in my bowl and Grace's bowl - she was eating them faster than we could put them in her bowl!

Zach and Maggie

Elsie Jane is always willing to take Nash down to the dock! He wanted to follow her around all weekend.
All 4 smiling and sitting still - its a miracle!

Pops with all his grandkids(Ha! My favorite part of this pic is Matt's expression - he had NO idea what to do with a screaming toddler! No worries, Matt! I don't always know what to do either!)
