Father's Day!

Sorry a couple days late...

Aaron and I had a great weekend with our dads! Sunday morning after we went to church we went over to Aaron's parents house and had brunch. It was delicious!! My mother in law made a yummy egg bake, pancakes and fresh fruit! We hung out there the first half of the day and spent most of our time on their wonderful screened in porch listening to the rain. It was so peaceful! Later that day we went to my parents house for a cookout. My parents live on 9 acres of woods so as we were driving up the driveway we saw this beautiful deer laying peacefully in the woods.
It was a simple day of relaxing with family but we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. At the end of the night we sat and thought about our little one who is with our heavenly Father. I made sure Aaron knew we were celebrating him as well. Aaron is going to be such an amazing dad! I can already tell this by the way he takes care of me. I can't imagine how he will be with a little one in his arms :) I am so excited to see that!

We will forever miss our first child and will think about it every Mother's and Father's Day but we still have joy of the future and what God has planned for us as far as being parents again :). We also have joy in knowing that we will one day see that little one again in heaven.

Here are some pics of our wonderful dads!

Vacation!!

Well we just got back from a relaxing vacation in North Carolina. Aaron's parents rent a house on Ocean Isle Beach every year and we get to spend the week just relaxing on the beach and soaking up the sun. It was a trip that Aaron and I definately needed and feel very refreshed and rested when we came back.

This is the awesome house we get to stay in with an amazing view in the back yard. We were on the back side of the island but the beach was only about 200 yards away on the other side of the street so it was easy to go back and forth.

Every night we got to watch the sunset from our porch. These are all the wonderful sunsets we got to enjoy throughout the week.





Aaron relaxing our first day there after a long drive.

We rented bikes and a kayak for the week. You better believe Aaron was in that thing every day doing what he loves the most...sea kayaking! Too scary for me :)

The beach was PARADISE! :)
This little guy entertained us for hours one day as he digged his hole.
Aaron and I went on a date one night to our favorite restaurant at Ocean Isle Beach...ROBERTO'S! It was delicious!

Us getting ready to go on our date :)
The cutest beer ever :)

Relaxing in the hammock :)

We had a blast but its good to be home...can't wait to go back next year!!!
