Happy 5 years ♥

Wow! What an incredible 5 years we have had! I have loved every year more and more and more. I have an amazing husband that loves me for who I am, he is the best example of Christ for our family that I could have ever asked for, he provides for us and will always be my best friend till the end!

Where it all began ~ 04/23/05~ Galveston, TX


Our journey to Parenthood: Laney Capri Hayes ~ 05/30/08



We celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary this weekend in San Antonio.. just the two of us. It felt like we haven't been able to get away just the two of us in a very long time. We definitely enjoyed ourselves.. of course lots and lots of great food, comedy, spurs vs mavericks playoff game, relaxing by the riverwalk, shopping and just time by ourselves.

And of course Laney had a ball while we were gone staying with Nanny and Papa.

And of course fun in the hot tub in her yellow bikini her dad picked out :)

New Pics

After rescheduling several times because of the rainy weather, we finally had an afternoon yesterday where the sun was out so we took advantage and had our pictures taken by Cassandra. Cassandra took Laney's pictures when she turned "one" and they turned out so cute, so who better to take her "two" year pics than her. We went to Tech and roamed the campus and found several great locations. I must say it was a bit windy but you can only tell by my hair... it was all over the place :)













We are packing up and heading out for our 5 year anniversary trip tonight. I couldn't be more excited to spend quality time with the love of my life!! I LOVE time alone and we just don't get enough of it!! I have truly been blest with a BEST FRIEND! He is so loving, gracious and patient with me!!!

Moms Birthday

We decided to surprise Nanny for her Birthday this Monday! We met the family at Shoguns in Midland and then headed back home right after. Lots of driving but it was well worth it!

Happy Birthday Nanny! OR Hoppy Birf Day (if you ask Laney) :)





Laney was a little scared of the fire and the chef throwing around utensils. It was quite hilarious.. she was jumping out of my mom's lap almost! This was her fourth time at a Japanese Steak House so she should have been used to it.

Thank you Laney Capri for putting smiles on our faces :)

Easter Festivities

We had a fun filled Easter weekend. We drove to Midland so that we could visit with our family. We started the festivities Thursday night with some turkey burgers and family time. Friday we had an Easter egg hunt and cookout at the park . Laney really enjoyed hunting Easter eggs this year. As a matter of fact we came home with four baskets full of goodies. Just what we need.. lots of candy! Saturday we over to Nana's and had another Easter egg hunt and cookout. We enjoy hanging out and visiting with our family. We are very blessed to have such a great family. Sunday we went to church and hung out just us three. We cooked a yummy lunch and spent time relaxing. All in all we had a great and busy Easter!!
