How is it already July 14th?!?!

Seriously, how is it already July 14th? It seems like yesterday was July 1. Needless to say I am a little behind in blogging, so here's what we've been up to.

The theme of the summer is "birthdays".... We've already celebrated 4 and still have two more to go. David's birthday was July 1st. We all celebrated with his favorite food, Mexican, and cupcakes made by the one and only Maddy.



Too excited about making cupcakes



Maddy's masterpiece... She wanted green frosting with sprinkles.

David's birthday celebration continued all weekend. Mimi and Poppi agreed to watch the girls for 4 nights while we went to Nashville for some grown-up time. We visited our best buds Ben and Elizabeth who live in Nashville. We played tennis, ate at great restaurants, went to the U2 concert at Vanderbilt, and partied at Taylor Swift's building. Seriously.

Our friends know someone that lives in the same building as Taylor Swift. That friend graciously hosted a 4th of July cookout at his building and we were invited. No sign of Taylor Swift but I kept looking for her, just in case... :-) It was a really swanky, nice building with amazing views of Nashville. But, can you believe it, I don't have any pictures. :-(  I took the camera but never got it out. Guess I felt like if I took pictures some undercover security guy might come out and escort me and my camera to a security office for questioning.

While we were gone Mimi celebrated her birthday on July 3rd. I told you we have a lot of birthday's to celebrate during the summer.

Our long weekend was wonderful and we were very eager to see the girls. There is nothing better than a hug from Maddy and Kate when you come home. Since then we've been swimming, playing with friends, and getting back into a routine.

But, I'll end this blog with the biggest news in our house... Grandaddy(aka my Dad) is going to London for the next several months to bid on a really exciting construction project. I won't go into a lot of detail about the project but I will say it's an amazing opportunity for him and our family. Should the company be awarded the project, Grandaddy and Nana will most likely relocate to London for a few years....

As excited and proud of him as I am, it has definitely caused me a little anxiety. I am a big time Daddy's girl and I already hate being 600 miles away from him so putting an ocean between us makes me nervous. But I see the silver lining in all of this... That's why I am already getting our passports in order. If they get this project I plan on spending a lot of time over there. Anyone who wants to tag along as our "nanny" should get their passports in order too. :-)

But seriously, I would appreciate it if you would keep my Dad, Allison, and the company in your prayers. It's a huge life changing opportunity that needs "divine direction." I'll update as needed here on the blog. Who knows "Bury Cute" could go international in the next year or so... :-)
