Oh how I miss Jamaica!

Last night our neighbors, Aaron and Heather, came over to visit for a little while. When they walked in I noticed how tan they both were. They had just recently been to the beach and fishing and it got me missing being able to lay out or go to the beach. This summer has definitely been different with an infant around! I wouldn't trade this summer for anything, but I do miss being able to go out in the hot Texas sun every once in a while! For our honeymoon, Nick and I went to Jamaica! It was a blast and I am dreaming I am there today!! :)

4th of July!

For the 4th of July we went to College Station! Man, did it feel good to be back there. We REALLY miss Aggieland! As we passed by A&M, Nick told Eden he would only pay for her college if she goes there - any other school she would have to pay for it herself! Haha. On Friday we spent the day with our dear friends Matt and Erin Mosier. Saturday, we visited the Bacak's, Panter's, and Merchant's! The Bacak kids were so cute with Eden. They all wanted a turn to hold her. We miss you Bacak's!! It was a busy and full weekend but it was amazing to see everyone. Here are some pictures from our weekend!

Happy 4th of July,
Carissa

Our Little Swimmer!

Last Saturday Eden went swimming for the first time at my parent's house!! It was so cute. She absolutely loved it. She is too tiny for the floaty but we put her in it to help support her and she kicked her little legs around in the water. She loves her baths so I knew she was going to enjoy swimming! Her adorable swimsuit is from Janie and Jack and was given to her by my brother's girlfriend Grace. Thank you Grace, she looked precious. Here are some cute pictures from that day!

A Time to Dance/ Edens Photo Shoot!!

At church my sunday school class has started a ladies book club. If any of you know me well, you know I am not a reader. I have never been one to pick up a book and read for pleasure. I have always wanted to be a pleasure reader, but just can't ever seem to finish a book. I would always start one and then never finish. The thought of a book club really excited me because I would have to finish the book in order to be apart of the fellowship. Well, I missed out on the first book because they started it right when Eden was born and I was dissapointed that I didn't get to go to the meeting. The next book they started was called A Time to Dance by Karen Kingsbury. One of the girls brought it to church last week and let me borrow it. I actaully finished the book in 5 days!! I was super proud of myself. I was so excited I finished it that I wanted to call everyone and tell them, but then I thought how dumb that sounded! Oh well, I was proud of myself and actually I REALLY REALLY liked the book. I learned so much from that book and I can't wait to read the next one in the series. I highly recommend A Time to Dance. You will be glad you read it!!

Also, Here are some pictures of our first photo shoot with Eden, enjoy our beautiful baby girl!
