The Davlin Family

Mommy & Alyssa

Yesterday, Alyssa and I ended up matching for church. I had to get a few pictures afterward of us girls :)

Slobbery Kisses :)

First T-Ball Practice

It's official! Andrew is on a T-Ball team! My baby boy is growing up! Look how big he looks :(

Coach Davlin

Dinner time...a bit smarter...

The night before had been so messy that I decided it would be best to feed Alyssa with only a diaper on...no clothes...no apnea monitor...

She thinks she is sooo funny :)

(She does crack me up!) :)

Messy Girl :)

We are full swing into the messy and yucky times of feeding Alyssa :) She is so silly and has too much fun with her food :)

Had to get a picture of her big brother! :)

My camera was too slow but she was actually licking her tray here...lol...

Austin Power's signature move here...

Fishing

Andrew and David fishing at Uncle Skip's pond...

So the opportunity for me and my brother's doesn't come around too often for us to get a good picture together. Our Munner's 80th birthday weekend in Jefferson was a chance to do so.

Leave it to us four knuckleheads to wait until a lazy day and with a few too many giggles up our sleeves to try and take it. But, oh ... did we laugh!!! :)

Finally... a decent shot of the four of us goofballs! :)

Man...I love my brothers! I am so Blessed to have Kelly, Joey (aka: Shadeaux ... or vice versa...ha!) and Jeff as my brothers...

I love each of these guys so much!

Kelly, for his insight and his protective nature. His sweet side despite his tough exterior.

Joey, for his sweet natured self. For his sense of humor and for his love of family.

Jeff, for his sweet nature, his ability to spark debate and for the sense of humor he kept hidden for so many years :)

These are just a few reasons I love these guys so much. Mostly, I love them because of the bond we have that until recently I didn't realize was so unique. I never realized how rare it is for siblings to GENUINELY say "I love you" to one another. And despite the distance that we have between (most of) us... how Blessed we are to WANT to get together and see each other as often as possible.

I love you, Brothers!!!!

Munner's 80th Birthday

May 27th marked my Munner's 80th Birthday! To celebrate, we gathered as many kids and grandkids and great-grandkids of hers as possible. We met for dinner at Lamache's and celebrated with a yummy dinner and DELICIOUS cakes that my Aunt Laura made.

Munner & Mr. Richard...her boyfriend of 4+years ;o)
