Getaway!

We spent the weekend in Texas visiting Uncle Ryan, Aunt Cindy, and the very awesome and beautiful Jilly Bean! We had so much fun hanging out together even though Nicholas was a little hard to handle at times. He is all about exploring anything he can get his hands on these days and isn't very happy when you tell him to stop. But, so is the life of a 1 year old who's learning all about his very cool world! Miss Jillian was precious, as usual, and full of smiles! She's such a big girl now, eating her cereal and practically sitting up on her own. But this trip was not just for pleasure, we had a purpose. Nicholas got his 1 year pictures taken by Annie at the Dallas Arboretum. I've seen this place in pictures but you can't imagine how beautiful it is until you're actually there. So gorgeous!! The only down side was the suffocating heat. We even tried to get there first thing in the morning and it was still sweltering. But we fought through it for the greater good. I think Annie got some really great pictures and I'm dying to see how they turned out. She really is amazing at what she does!

Nicholas and his homegirl! Exhausted on the ride home. Looks comfortable, doesn't it??
