What a fun week!

It's been a fun week in the Preston household.

We went swimming with our good friend Carlee. Amelia LOVES her (and so does her mommy) and she was lots of fun to swim with.

Amelia liked to swim "back and forth" as she calls it from mommy to Carlee.

This is Amelia's teacher, Ms. Taffy. They have on matching Tshirts but you can't see them in the pictures. Amelia adores her teachers.


I started out the week by going to visit the Rick and Bubba show. It's a radio show that is based here in Birmingham. I listen every morning (and in the afternoon when they have a replay) and so does my friend Bradley. She and I teach together and most of our lunch conversations revolve around what they said on the radio. When it's not revolving around our kids and husbands. So for her birthday I got her tickets to the show. I had to reserve them in February but we couldn't go until July. We arrived bright and early with snacks in hand on Monday. It was so much fun. They are such nice guys and they are just as funny in person and off air as they are on the radio!

Busy Bea Day Camp

Amelia went to the "Busy Bea" Preschool Camp at our church this week. She had so much fun and learned about the beatitudes. At the end of the week she got some goodies including a cowgirl hat, bandanna, and t-shirt. My mom got some good pictures of her...

She had to wear her hat like Busy Bea did, on her back!

Cute cowgirl!

All decked out!

My mom made this picture in Georgia and I just thought it was pretty. I love blackeyed susans.

Beach Trip!

We just returned from a WONDERFUL beach trip. We spent 10 wonderful days in Panama City Beach, Florida with our families. We had visits from Nana, Derf, Mimi, Papa, Aunt Gail, Mandy, Lockett, Kevin, Granny, Owen and Joseph. There are LOTS of pictures but here are a few of the highlights.

Aunt Gail, Mandy, Claude, and Amelia

I think the fish and turtles actually got that piece.

Amelia loved feeding the fish and turtles (and herself) outside our condo.

Tristin and Jackson came to the beach too!

Daddy's big amberjack

Daddy and Papa caught LOTS of fish, Amelia even got in the picture with them and the fish.

Cousin Owen came to the beach with us. He was LOTS of fun to play with.

Amelia got to go golfing with Daddy and Derf. She was the cutest caddy ever!

Amelia and Daddy rode go carts-they were both VERY excited.

We went to watch Daddy come in from fishing.

Couldn't she be a Kelly's Kids Model ?!?

The Fam

It's much easier to take pictures of her now, I remember when she was a baby and we tried to do this, she ended up with her face in the sand.
