busy, busy, busy

where has the time gone?! i can't believe its already the middle of July and only SEVEN days away from my due date (but that's another post). we have been so busy with family over the last month and it has been so much fun. two of daniels sisters live out of state and both came to visit at the same time this year. so.... obviously we had to get a family picture. don't mind that i am nine months pregnant in them. it is truly amazing to see how blessed we are with family when i look at this picture. it makes me think that one day, a long ways away, daniel and i will be the ones in the middle with our family surrounding us. even though this will be outdated in about a week once our little guy arrives, i am grateful to have this picture of the ever growing Reeder family.

i LOVE the 4th of july. every year since i can remember my family has been going up to Huntsville to participate in the early morning breakfast and town parade. it is something my dad grew up doing and and something that i hope to continue doing with my family. after the parade, a 3 on 3 basketball tourney, and some lunch we headed back down the mountain to be with daniels family for smores and fireworks.



our little family of three, soon to be four

the proud winning team of the Huntsville 3 on 3 basketball tournament.







with all of the family bbq's and get togethers, the last few weeks of pregnancy seem to have flown by. we are getting more and more anxious for the arrival of our little boy and i am in a state of disbelief that in only a matter of days, we will be starting a whole new chapter of life. we hope you all are having a wonderful summer!
