More August - Golden Anniversary, Bass Hall x2, fun summer days

Had the BEST time with the Dream Team planning a surprise Golden Anniversary party (14th year on Aug 14th) for Kristen & Jeff. 

 Also, our bridesmaid dresses for her wedding were gold so we busted those out to wear for the night. It was so much fun planning and executing such a fun theme with all Kristen's sweet friends. 

She may or may not have actually been surprised but she loved every second!

   

 Victoria captured this pic and it so shows how we still look at each other after 30 years of friendship. This is something special guys... 

 

 Bass Hall - Love Never Dies

   

Lazy summer days at home usually include no clothes and a homemade gymnastics course in Kinley's room

   

 Got to play with Anson and Evelyn one day and Went to visit Inie too :)

Francesca is married!

So, so excited to celebrate the new Mr & Mrs Barerra.

 We loved getting to help host a bridal shower for Francesca back in May at Ali's house. 

 It was an intimate bridal tea with only girls and Kinley got to be a big girl and come too.

 It was such a beautiful day celebrating a beautiful girl. 

 

The August wedding was just beautiful and such a fun time celebrating with lots and lots of the Lamke side of Cheryl's family. Love all the time we get to spend with these precious aunts, uncles and cousins. 

We love you BIG Francesca and we miss ya'll so much and are holding our breath until you move back to Texas!
