Wells Fargo Championship

This past weekend we had the opportunity to go to the Wells Fargo Championship. My friend Rylee's dad is the Chief of Security for the PGA so he was able to get us some all-access passes.
Ethan, Myself, Rylee, Jesse
Because we didn't pay for the passes, we decided to only stay a couple hours which was great! We started off by pulling in to the parking lot and, literally, parking 3 spots away from the clubhouse. It was kind of fun to walk around with someone with authority because anytime we were stopped or people questioned where we were going, it would basically flash his badge, state who he was and then kept going (politely of course).
This girl has become one of my best friends!
We walked to several different holes to watch the players, learned about the ins and outs of the tournaments, took some pictures, then called it a day! I'm so glad we got to attend, but I don't know if I'd ever go again if I had to pay (some of the seats in the tents went for $4,000 a piece!!)!

Crazy hair

I was going through my pictures, and came across one of my favorite pictures that I've taken of Nixon. This is what happens when you have rabbit hair and play on the trampoline.

Mother's Day

I have been blessed with the best mother in the world!
She may live all the way across the United States, but I know (unless she's working) she's only a phone call away and will be there to listen to anything I have to say. Whether is venting about Nixon, crying over something ridiculous, or just calling to say hi, she's there and I could not imagine a better mother for me. Love you mom!

On the other hand, I was blessed to marry into a family that has an amazing mother as well.
You never can truly appreciate someone until you see everything that they do for others. It has been a blessing living with Sarah, because I've been able to, not only get to know her, but to see how selfless she truly is. These past few months have been an absolutely roller coaster and she continues to do so much for others. She's an amazing mother-in-law and I feel very blessed to have her. 

And on this day of mothers I can't forget to mention the boy who made me a mother. 
Oh, how I love this little man of mine. He melts my heart so many times a day, and I'm so thankful he's mine.

Myrtle Beach part 4

Our last day in Myrtle Beach was awesome! Ethan and I were going back home, so we wanted to make sure we did something fun.

We started off the day with with a walk on the beach.
It was a beautiful sunny day, but I was a little chilly still. Ethan was determined to go into the ocean while we were there, even though the water was cold.
I love this sequence of shots

We all headed back to the hotel where Ethan and Eric got in the hot tub, while the rest of us hung out around the poolside. 
 These two were the best of friends.
We headed back to the room so we could get packed up and then head down to the boardwalk.
While we were walking we passed an artist that did caricatures. These always make me nervous because I'm always wondering what they're going to "enhance" on me, but it turned out awesome. I'll have to remember to post it sometime.
We also hit up a candy store that had this wall of Jellybeans, ten pound chocolate bars and multiple overly large candy items that no one in their right mind should ever buy/consume. 
We were all ready for some dinner before it was time for us to head back home and we found this great place with an ocean view called Moe Moons. The burgers and fries were fantastic.
We finished dinner and started on our way back to the car, but not without first catching this beauty:
The perfect view to end a perfect weekend.
