Tomorrow is Nonna's birthday, but since it is such a busy week with getting ready to go on vacation and working, went spent the day with her on Saturday to celebrate. We had a great day just spending time outside, had a great lunch, and birthday cupcakes. I love that we have such a well rounded families. Connor loves going to both places. At Nonna and Grandy's house he loves helping in the garden, going to the farm to see the cows and riding the tractor, and playing with all of our toys from mine and Brett's childhood. At Grannie and Pop's he loves to fish, and play in Pop's boat, visit with Kaitlyn, and play outside with Grannie. He gets exposed to a little bit of it all.
This was Brett's tractor when he was Connor's age. Pawpaw gave it to him, so Connor calls it Pawpaw's tractor. He of course always follows it up by saying that "Pawpaw is in heaven."
Connor got a "going to hot/humid Florida for a week" haircut from Nonna. It looks so cute but is makes me sad because he looks so different and like such a little boy!
Helping Nonna blow out her candles. Gigi's cupcakes...YUMM! No, not my grandmother that Connor calls Gigi ( I wish! ) We have a Gigi's Cupcakes in Spring Hill and I thought I would try them out. To our Gigi- We wish you could have been there!
Happy Birthday Nonna!
Ok, so when you look at this picture try not to focus on my very handsome son for a minute and look at the vintage 1980's Power wheel that still works!! Yes, you heard it right. My parents saved my brothers power wheel three wheeler and actually found a fixer upper guy who gave my Dad a lifetime supply of batteries for it. Looks like it might just run forever! Sometimes the foot pedal gets stuck but for the most part it is just like a new one. It even has metal parts! Ha!
Can you imagine looking at these beautiful horses in your backyard? Mom and Dad are fortunate to have a horse farm behind their house. Connor loves to see the horses each time we go.
Picking his first vegetable of the year! Cucumbers...Yummy!
Helping Nonna and Grandy pick.
Now the following pictures were taken at my house.
This is the new landscaping that we did in the front yard this spring. I wanted to take some pictures of my flowers in bloom and was able to capture some shots of my lawn keeper who was hard at work as you can see!
Connor is a little obsessed with lawn mowers. I cant wait to tell him about this when it is actually his time to start helping out with the mowing. I am sure it wont be quite as exciting then. Ha!

Happy Birthday Nonna! I can't believe how grown up Connor looks in some of the Pictures. That is pretty impressive about the 3 wheeler! Love the flowers, I need a green thumb!
Great pics! I know what you mean about getting their haircut! They seem so grown-up when you first look at them.
Oh my goodness, you have a GiGi's so close. There is one downtown Nashville too. They are oh so good!
