Courtney+Erik Jackson: Wedding

Talk about people that know how to throw a party!  Even though it rained the entire day, Courtney and Erik didn't let that ruin their day.  And it turned out to be an amazingly fun wedding.

Buckwild Entertainment kept the music pumping and I've never seen so many people at a wedding get involved in the dancing.  People were getting down with their Stanky Leg! haha  Made me and Ben want to get in on the fun!

Here is just a few images that were our favorite from the day:




Beautiful cake made by Who Made The Cake here in Houston.

Always Floral did a great job with the bouquet

You Matter To God

A tidbit from Max Lucado's podcast:
"God knows you better than you know yourself"

Thank God, because something I feel like I don't know myself at all! God knows even the innermost desires of our heart even if we don't know we desire it yet. Not only does He KNOW, but He cares about us! We matter to him...Our dreams and desires matter to Him. Why wouldn't they? He put them in us!

iPhone Photos of the Day

Both Ben and I have iPhones that we are completely addicted to. Including the camera feature that is so handy to have around. Even though the iPhone camera gives you amazing quality for a phone, please excuse the "not-professional-looking-photo-worthiness" of these images! They are straight out of my phone and for fun only!

These are all from our St. Louis trip.

BEFORE
On our way to City Museum and a day of fun together, just the 3 of us
AFTER
Completely worn out from our day of fun!
St. Louis Arch - trying to be creative!
Me and Tyler
More Arch-ness
We took Tyler to see Monsters vs. Aliens in 3D, hence the 3D glasses!

St. Louis & Tyler

We just came back from St. Louis from a small four day vacation to visit Ben's family and son, and for the first time had the time to go sight seeing downtown!  I have seen the arch many-o-time in photos, tv, etc, etc...but finally got to see it in person!

Of course Busch Stadium, home of the Cardinals.  Ben would say: Go Cards!
Just Monkey-ing around with Tyler :)
We took Tyler to City Museum downtown.  What an amazing place!  The creativity of the builders and designers of this place was absolutely incredible!  This is an artist's (and of course kid's) dream!  We'll have to post more pics of this place to give you an idea of how cool the place really is.

Of course Tyler, was just completely overwhelmed with all the fun things to see.  From tunnels, to caves, and slides in every place imaginable, there was plenty to keep a kid busy for HOURS!

The ultimate slide!! Very colorful (Ben and I tried it out as well)
He seemed to like the bridge

Baby Jackson

It's been four months since we took the Echols' maternity pictures and it was so nice to finally see Baby Jackson! For such a young baby, he is such an alert little guy; he watched our every move and seemed to be fascinated with Ben. We had fun playing with him and wearing him out. By the end of the shoot, he was knocked out!

His adorable business suit:



This was at the end of the shoot, and as you can see, he is out!





Yea, Mama wanted a peeing picture...and Jackson happily complied...so here you go!






This is to match the maternity shot of the shoes:



Same flower as in the maternity shoot!


Can't leave out Grandma and Grandpa!
