Adding to the Family

For those of you that don't know, my brother got engaged in March! We are so thrilled for him and excited to welcome Lauren to our family. Lauren is from Kansas City, so we were thankful that her family came to TX in April and we were able to meet them and celebrate the engagement with them and some of their great family friends who hosted a fabulous evening for all of us!

The Happy Couple
(Taken on Mother's Day)

The party was at a beautiful home in Sugarland and though Joshua was sick and had to stay home with daddy, Logan and Ryan were made to feel right at home and had a great time!

Beautiful property!

 A special toast for the happy couple

 

The happy couple- delicious cupcakes!

The kids liked the cupcakes too!

 

 

Ryan was willing to share!

I love this picture... Mike and his boys

My boys were introduced to the concept of karaoke

Lauren's niece Sadie, dancing

 

 

The happy parents

 

Lauren's girls

Only the little ones braved the cold water temps...

This is Ryan, wanting me to swim with him.

He looks so disappointed!

Sadie knew what karaoke was all about

Which of course meant my boy would want a turn

 

They didn't have most of his requests on their playlist (as we don't listen to a lot of radio music) so he went with God Bless America. We need to do some practicing following the yellow words on a karaoke machine, but he was very proud and did a great job! 

Ryan discovered that they owned a riding mower for their property... and somehow he conned a complete stranger into driving him around in the midst of all the fun! :-)
