Happy Anniversary!

It's hard to believe that Drew and I have been married for FOUR years! Time has flown by.. and we were talking last night that it's been even longer than that since we dated for two years prior. We both broke personal relationship records when we made it past 2 years :)This picture was taken in July 2003, a couple of days after my 25th birthday. We were with a group of friends at 503 Oyster Bar in Fort Smith. Anybody who didn't know us at the time would assume that we were "together" then, but we weren't. I wanted a picture of us together to "give to my sister" who is also friends with Drew! I secretly liked him but didn't tell anybody.. I was dating Brian and Drew was dating a girl from Chicago named Dawn.. That night, after several drinks, Drew leaned over (while sitting right next to Brian) and confessed that he had a crush on me.. I must have lit up like a light bulb! I confessed the same crush and from that point on we knew we had to figure out a way to be together! Was it SCARY? Absolutely! But we just KNEW :)

Two years later we were married at Immaculate Conception in Fort Smith. It was a perfect day and the beginning of a wonderful life together! I love you today, Drew!

New Jammies and the Long Lost Binky

Brett has grown so much lately! I had to buy him some "big boy" pajamas because the little footed ones were getting too small.. so Nana and I picked out Spongebob and Toy Story :) They are so cute on him! I think I'm gonna go back and get The Cars set too.

Last week I was in the computer room and Brett was playing in his room.. I could hear him getting into something.. a few minutes later he came walking towards me with a BINKY in his mouth! He's never really taken a binky but he found one somewhere in his room.. It was so funny watching him chew on his "newest discovery."

I can't believe that his first birthday is in a little over a month.. this year has flown by! Now, if we can just decide on a birthday party theme :)

We've been BUSY!

It's been pretty busy around the Burgoyne household! Forgive me for not posting any pictures lately.. As you can see, Brett is exploring the great outdoors and enjoying these cooler days(thanks Daddy)!

I've also decided to start a photography "business" called Sweet Life Photography. I will be keeping a blog for that too www.oursweetlifephotography.blogspot.com so check it out occasionally!

Let's see.. Brett is now 10 months old! He is saying "bye bye" when we wave. That's about all he says these days though. His walking is getting better and better so we expecting him to take off any day now! He loves to eat yogurt, he is slowly cutting a 7th tooth (on the bottom), and the other night he slept 14 hours straight! WOW! and yes, still nursing :)

Love to all,

Adrienne, Drew and Brett

Fun times at Nana & Papa's house..

We have never laughed at Brett so much! He is such an entertainer... poor Sage was a little embarassed I think :) Hey, it was HER idea to get in the pool with him!

Other Hilton Head pictures..

Loving the pool!

Thumbs up to the Cheerios.

mmmm, more snacks.. what a cheeser!

Baywatch Drew meets the ocean floor.. "um, sir, you're bleeding"

The next Laird Hamilton?? We'll see!

First time at the beach!

This car is the BEST THING EVER! WeeWee brought it for him on the day we moved to the new house.. he LOVES driving it everywhere and that's exactly where it goes.. to the grocery store, to Nana's house, on vacation.. and most recently, to THE BEACH! Brett wasn't too sure about the water at first but then he started splashing and "tasting" the water and sand :) We had him all sunscreened up too with his hat and surfer shirt.. he was very popular with the other beach-goers!

The Creekmore Express & The Lovell family reunion!

Drew and I took Brett to ride the Creekmore Express and he LOVED it! I guess he's gonna be just like his daddy.. Drew's got some really wild stories to tell about hopping trains in Northern Illinois with his buddies (and having to call parents to come pick them up miles and miles away).. hopefully Brett won't pull that stunt!

Then, the Lovell family reunion was this past weekend.. lots of good food and visiting with our cousins. Brett was a huge hit with the family! He got to spend some quality time with Aunt Angela:

It was good to see everybody one last time before we pack up and move to Cave Springs, AR.. the movers are coming on the 10th! I will post pics of the new house soon :)
