Jackson Hole

We traveled to Jackson Hole, Wyoming for a family friend's wedding. I think it might have been the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen! The location was gorgeous and the weather was phenomenal! (It was very hard to come back to 100 degree, plus humidity Austin!)
It was awesome traveling to Jackson Hole with the family, we had lots of hands to help keep Landon occupied! ;) The landing into Wyoming offered amazing views of the surrounding Teton mountains, that immediately generated a feeling of entering "the West!"
The town has great character and brings out the cowboy in all of us!

We thought he would like feeling the breeze on his face and seeing the sights, but he was pretty antsy back there!

California lovin'

We traveled to California for a cousin's wedding and stayed at my parent's house in Thousand Oaks. Now that all the cousins are grown up, have jobs, spouses and children of their own, it's hard to organize get-togetCheck Spellinghers. Therefore, weddings turn into mini family reunions!
The weather in CA was warmer than usual, so we spent lots of time cooling off in the pool.
Landon is showing off that he's "SO BIG" these days!

Long time no post...

Sorry we've been MIA for so long.....we had a busy month! We were on the road for 3 out of the 4 weeks in July, lots of living out of suitcases, sleeping in different beds (and pack-n-plays), and seeing friends and relatives. We had a great time!
Landon loved getting to meet new cousins and friends, but was definitely ready to get home to his own space. Can't say we were excited to come back to Texas weather.......too hot!

Love you Daddy

I am a little belated, but still want to wish Scott the happiest, most wonderful 1st Father's Day!
Working full time, going to school full time, and supporting our family is a big job! We are so lucky to have such a wonderful Daddy. Thanks for all you do for us!

Tradition

It has always been a tradition in our family that every year all the birthday cards you receive, get taped to your bedroom door so you can see and enjoy all your birthday love! I wanted to start that tradition with Landon too!
His door was quite full! He got lots of birthday love!

Call me biased...
