Happy Father's Day

Daddy's Father's Day Breakfast at Our House

(Sharing with His Beloved Granddog)

I never thought I was much like my Dad until I got married. It's funny to hear Mom complain about the exact same things that bug Forrest. It was after the honeymoon bliss that I learned where I get the following traits from:

• Hogging the Covers
• Snuggling (or as Mom calls it Smothering)
• Pestering
• Our Sleeping Patterns (early up and early to sleep)

The list can go on and on....

Tuna & Turkey Burgers

After Forrest saw the doctor it was confirmed...he needs to decrease his caffeine intake and get anything that tastes good out of our pantry. We went on a heart healthy grocery trip and from there I planned meals, breakfasts and late night snacks.

Here is a Sampling of What We Got:

• Salmon
• Tuna
• Oatmeal
• Almond Butter
• Margarine
• Cauliflower
• Almond Milk
• Blueberries

I've never been super healthy (and never had any problems) so I thought it would be hard to start eating better but it's not! What we do right now will affect the future of our family! It's too big of a deal to "push under the rug." I'm thankful we addressed it now and not in ten years.

Off to make Turkey Burgers for Lunch!

Heart Trouble

Last night we went to Publix to return movies and while we were in there Forrest decided to take his blood pressure. It was 153/89 which is considered HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE! I took mine to see if it was accurate...109/60. That is pretty typical for me. I got the barely there pressure from my Mama!

We were both pretty scared by this. We got home and researched how to lower blood pressure. After reading we realized we need to seriously change everything about the way we eat and decrease a lot of stress. A few hours later, Forrest said he had stomach discomfort and pain in his shoulder which led to a tingling. The first thing I thought was HEART ATTACK so we stayed up talking about what to do and watched Pokerstars until the wee hours of the morning! We both took this serious because Forrest is 26 and pretty healthy. He is going to go to the doctor today to get his heart checked out.

It's scary to go through something like this. Please pray for Forrest!

Saturday Afternoon at the Sumner's

There's nothing like a man and his dog!

My Day with Jake

Saturday Jake and I spent the day palling around town. We went to the Splash Pool with Emma, Layne, Audrey, Nolan, Kelly and Ninny. And then...

We took a drive with Lexi. And then...

Forrest got home and we went on the Boardwalk. And then...

We all went swimming. And then...




We snuggled into bed and fell fast asleep!

Welcome Summertime!

I made two cookie cakes with buttercream icing for Tayton's class to kick off the summer. I hope they had as much fun eating them as I did decorating!

Tired?

We have been so busy this week that work has taken up most of our thoughts when we are sleeping and awake!


Forrest: (while I am asleep tossing and turning on the couch) "Honey, are you ready to go upstairs and go to bed?"
Me: "No I don't have all the ingrediants for this frosting."

Me: (while Forrest is asleep) "It's time to get up."
Forrest: "Why don't I finish sleeping and you do those part marks?"

After reading this can tell who likes the morning and who likes the night? We are extremes when it comes to our favorite time of the day.

The Real Deal

Tucker's Real Birthday Sweets

Two Tiered Chocolate & Vanilla Cake

Smashcake

Frosted Cookies

A Bee Party

Bethany's 17th Birthday Party

Bethany chose Bees as the theme for her party. We had a bee cake, sunflower cupcakes, lemonade, sweet tea, burchetta and a few other snacks. I had a blast organizing the party. It was on the top of my mind the majority of the week.

We chatted, played Apples to Apples and most importantly go to see BABY KINLEY!

After the party, and a rain delay, the girls went to the Aquatic Club. They had a blast going down the slide. I'm pretty sure Daddy would have gone in too if he had his swimsuit.

Happy Birthday, Beff! We can't wait for the next one!
