Shopping for Shoes

This little girl is so funny! The things she does to keep herself occupied...






Grammy and Papa Joe

What a sweet visit with these two. Connor just adores them both and they love when she sings to them. She has a gift of love that can warm anyone's heart.

I love visiting them too! We don't get to see them too often because we live so far away. Except for special days like today, when you decide to take a ride out and out a smile on someone you loves face.

Trout fishing in the Valley

Gangy has been wanting to take Connor trout fishing. She's older and she's also shown some excitement so he thought this trip would be perfect for their excursion. 

She was so excited and freaked out when the first one took the bait.

It was so cute and she had a bunch if fun. Until next year!



Happy 4th of July from Maggie Valley!

Another successful and exciting 4th for the Hortons! We had planned on heading to Maggie Valley on Friday and were excited when we decided to head up a day early.  Connor just adores her Meme and Gangy and loves coming to the mountains. We are realizing that now that she is older, we can't just sit and enjoy the tranquility while reading. We need to be up, moving and playing!

Gangy bought us some fireworks and we had a great time setting them off! I can't wait for Connor to share these experiences with her little brother and show him all the things she loves to do.






We hope everyone had a wonderful fourth of July!

Pompano Beach 2013: Out and About

Continuing our awesome beach vacation...

We got a chance to explore Pompano too! This vacation was truly one of the best. Vacationing with my parents is always fun and we laugh so much. I cannot wait until next year! Hopefully next year, Kerri and Justin will be able to go. Below are a couple of pictures to illustrate the rest of our unforgettable week together.

We go out to eat at the same awesome Italian restaurant every year:


Ice cream on the pier was so much fun:



My parents and Shane went to the Bahamas on a day cruise and Uncle Shane brought Connor back this awesome shirt:


We spent a lot of time in the pool (Connor's idea of "cooling off"):





We played putt-putt for the first time this year, and I see this becoming a tradition:



And we ended our week seeing my best friend since third grade. I look forward to seeing Taryn every year. Our little families keep growing and it is so neat to see what the next year holds. Next year, Connor and Tyler will have Whit as a playmate!





Such an awesome vacation. The pictures only tell half of our week-long story. Until next year!
