high 5 for insta-friday

i love fridays and i love linking up with lauren, jeanette and rachel to share my favorite things from this past week.

ONE:  last weekend henry and i went to savannah, ga with my parents.  we spent most of the weekend hanging around the house, playing musical baby (3 babys and 7 adults).  on sunday we celebrated one year of these lovely ladies.  it was so great to finally get my hands on the girls and spend time with their older sister.  they are all so sweet.  still trying to decide which one henry will be betrothed to.  LOL!  

TWO:  my dad met my uncle john in the navy over 40 years ago.  since then, we have spent many many vacations together.  although we are not blood related, they will always be uncle john and aunt linda to me.  a perfect example that friends are the family you choose.

THREE:  also, uncle john and aunt linda's daughter is an AMAZING photographer.  while setting up for the twins b-day party, she snapped this picture of henry and i.   isnt he just the most handsome little guy ever?  you can follow chrissy's facebook page here.

FOUR:  i love our small group!  i love the friendships, i love discussing the bible with them, i love game nights, i love worshiping with them ... did i mention i love small group?  if you are attending a church that offers small groups and have not tried it out or if someone has invited you to theirs, do it.  it will change the way you live your life.   

FIVE:  its fun to watch henry changing so much.  this week he learned how to really play with (chew on) toys.  he has been reacting to the little stuffed animals that hang from his chair for a while.  but this week he held onto a toy and laughed when he was shaking it all around.   

EXTRA CREDIT:  i was so thankful of how well henry traveled last weekend.  this picture is from his nap time last saturday.  

have a super weekend!!!
