Birthdays, Babies & Brides

There's been many celebrations over the past few months, and I'm reminded of how much I have to be thankful for.
First, my Mom celebrated her 50th birthday in June. I think compared to most of my peers, my mom is a spring chicken. Anna Bryce came home for the weekend, and we made a list of 50 things to do on her 50th bday - most of these were embarassing, awkward tasks (run through a sprinkler, hug a random stranger, ride a merry-go-round at the mall, etc.) I've got hilarious pictures to capture every moment - especially hugging a stranger, although Mom would die if I shared most of them.

I celebrated 27 here in Atlanta with a few of my favorite people. Taverna Plaka is quite the place to celebrate a birthday! For some reason their signature event is throwing napkins all over the place.

Matt picked up the most delicious cupcakes I have ever had - omg. 
 Speaking of birthdays, little baby Massengill will be here before we know it. My sweet friend Kathryn is expecting her first child at the end of this month and I can't wait! We celebrated Wilson at a monogram shower in early July. Let me tell you, this will be one well dressed little baby!

I felt a bit like a fish out of water shopping for baby clothes. The saleslady had to kindly explain that baby boys don't wear bloomers. Who knew? I had so much fun shopping for these tiny little outfits, and I'm looking forward to spoiling a little nephew soon :)
Moving on to the brides... Lisa is getting married over Labor Day weekend, and we celebrated her last few weeks as a Bachelorette at Lake Seed. Here's the bride-to-be...rockin' a life jacket :)

It was a wonderful reunion of law school girls - cruising on the boat, delicious meals & competitive games of catch-phrase. What could be better!?
Finally, my cousin Taylor tied the knot last weekend. She was an absolutely BEAUTIFUL bride! Anna Bryce sang in the ceremony and I cried / read scripture.
Here's the new Mr. & Mrs. Crosby.

We love you Taylor & Tripp and hope you enjoy every minute of being Newlyweds!
