The Big Five-O

Lisa celebrated a big birthday last month and we were lucky enough to celebrate with her. She, Shawn and Kris came to Dallas for a long weekend.

Jackson loves to listen to the boys play guitar 

Mr. Joe Cool

 Nonnie's birthday falls on the same weekend so we celebrated with her as well

Since daddy Kris was in town, we thought we'd take advantage and gave Jackson his first hair cut!

He wouldn't stay still so we bribed him with puffs 

For Lisa's birthday, we had dinner at Reunion Tower. This was the view from our table. 

Birthday girl!

Sunday Morning with The Paul's

The Paul's came to visit this weekend and as usual, we had so much fun! Jackson adores Carson and loves having a friend around! We swam, shopped and enjoyed lots of yummy food. I didn't capture much of the weekend but snapped a few this morning before they left.

Look forward to the MANY more memories these two boys will share!

Fourth of July

We went to my parents house for July 4th and watched the fireworks from their balcony. Chris was messing around with the camera and got some pretty cool pictures of the fireworks.

Megan's Wedding Shower

It's clearly been a while since I've last posted as Megan is already married! These are pictures from her shower, hosted at my mom's house about a month ago.

It was such a special day - so glad we were apart of it!

Happy Father's Day to the best hubby and dad we could ask for!

Love this little boy!

Jackson and I went swimming on Saturday. I'm so thankful he loves the water - excited to spend lots of time in the pool!

Trip to Arizona

We went to Arizona over Memorial Weekend for a mini Gilman family reunion. We stayed at Lisa's brothers house (Scott and Deb) and managed to find a space for all 11.5 people to sleep! It was fun being all together as this doesn't happen very often.

Jackson loves his uncle Shawn!

The ladies planning the meals for the week ... Lisa takes this very seriously :)

Bowling!

Jackson was pretty amazed at everything going on

Jackson finally went to sleep ... for 30 minutes

Ignore his pink carrier - we rented baby gear so we wouldn't have to take it on the plane with us and naturally they gave us pink!

We had been sick the night before so decided it was best to stay home
