little things...that make me happy...

can't wait to take ava to see this movie tomorrow! hollis is going to spend some time with his great grandparents so we can have some time together {grams and felix will be going with, too!} i think she's gonna love it!

while jen and jon were here, jon made us the most amazing drinks! lava flows!!!! they were so yummy and i got very spoiled by him...yes, he made them one night on the back porch to keep from waking the kids...such a sweet, sweet man!

bo found this turtle and had to show it to me. it took me back to when i was a kid and totally jelous of the boy, david, down the street that had a pet turtle named "dribble".
i so could have had my own pet turtle, but now all i can think about is sow manilla {sp?}...growing up can totally suck sometimes...

we spent a day hanging at the house and ava had fun playin in jon's shoes...{yes, she is pretty much always topless if we're around the house...i have to make her wear a shirt in public...}

and jen, my best friend for 24 years now and the best friend a girl could ever dream of. not only is she an amazing friend, but she always gives the most rediculously amazing gifts. they are always thoughtful, creative, usually she makes them {which in my opinion makes any gift incredibly special}, and always a treasure. she is amazing.

she made me this super adorable, funky, p.e.r.f.e.c.t. jamaica pillow...she said she found the fabric in a thrift shop and knew she had to make something for me with it. she is without a doubt, the most thoughtful girl ever. it's gonna look amazing in our bedroom after i get done painting our funiture...but that's a whole other post!

don't you love it?! i know i do!

if you're wondering what the significance is of jamaica...it's where bo and i got married almost FIVE years ago! it was the most perfect and beautiful day ever.

and more lava flows...can't get enough of those...

xo,

a
