We are making the most of the pretty weather!

So, this last Monday me and Micah went with my friend Ashley to her parents house out in Corner. It was so pretty! They have about 100 acres of land, a pool, hot tub, horses, cows and a huge pond. The pictures I took of her on the pier at the pond were good but they were taken in between her throwing fits because she wanted to get closer to the edge. She has just started doing this. She will grunt and whine and throw her arms around when she does not get her way. Hopefully this isn't the start of something terrible.
Micah had a blast, playing with the dog, and getting her first glimpse at horses. She actually touched one of the horses.

Then on Tuesday we went to the Splash Pad in Gardendale. This is where Micah's birthday will be. She did not like it too much at first, and I totally do not blame her. But, after a while she warmed up to it and was letting me put her in front of the streams of water. I am hoping by next month she will want to get a little more involved, but if not that is fine.

Speaking of the party, the invitations are almost done and I will be mailing them out around the end of May.

Enjoy the pics!! I put a few others in as well.




She was about to pet the horse in this one


You can see that the horse is about to touch her foot, and when it did she flipped out...




She really like the hot tub...by the way it was not that hot...I don't want people to think I was scalding her.. :)




Splash Pad!




Finally we got her standing still...


She was watching Brandon cut grass....she was amazed...maybe he should do it more often.


My favorite...love the hair.... :)


The only reason I am sharing this is because it is VERY rare that me and Brandon are both dressed up and I wanted to show it off. We were both in our friends wedding this past Saturday, I was a bridesmaid and Brandon was the best man. We had a ton of fun. Here are a couple pics.



Oh yes we danced...not well though

Her new favorite thing

Micah has been to the park a lot, and she really loves to swing, which is why I am really excited about her early birthday present from her great grandmother Gail. It is this cute pink swing and we have (for now hung it on the porch). But, since the pictures were taken it has already moved to another spot on the porch. Micah absolutely loves it. These pictures were taken on our first Mother's Day together.

Her in her swing, LOVING IT!









My flowers and card from Brandon and Micah


After a very long day of playing, she was out in Brandon's arms

I took This video of Micah this morning. It was like 9:15 and she was still asleep so I had to wake her up. She is so cute because she always wakes up so happy. The first thing she says is "dog". By the way anything that could look in any form or fashion like an animal, is a dog to her. So all stuffed animals, our cat, even ceramic figurines at Brandon's parents house are "dogs". You can pause the song I have playing on the right side to hear the video.

We have been pretty busy lately, and it has not helped that my camera has been dead....But here are a few pics of Miss Micah from the past week or so. Also a video of her beating Brandon on the head with plastic shovels. :)


This is My sisters, Lauren and Mallory, and my Aunt Sharon at Jim N Nick's....as you can tell Micah was not cooperating for pictures that night.


Me, and Lauren and Mal


I LOVE this picture....I'm not sure why she was making this face, but it turned out really cute.


Here is Micah in her 80's outfit


It is kind of dark, but oh well.
