"I can't wait till I get to highschool..."

This title is 100% Jason! From the start of getting to know Jason (when we were "friends" before we started dating) I used to talk a lot about my incredible group of friends from high school and how great they were! We used to (and still do all get together once or twice a year...sometimes more). Anyways....Jason used to joke with me...and say sarcastically "I can't wait till I get to high school" making fun of me...he was just jealous! Until he got to meet all of them...and then he understood why!

All of that to say...we all (almost all...missing a few) got together with all of our children this weekend! It was a blast!

A few of us took our kids to play at a big kids gym together...and this is Bryson (Lindsay's son) following Reese around...which he loved doing...and she loved being the leader (she might be a little bit BOSSY)Reese jumping...

Bryson jumping...following the leader (and at one point I caught Reese telling Bryson to do a "booty-shake" before he jumped...and he did) I am sorry Lindsay!The two little ones just took all of the action in (Hadley caring for baby Graham(Merritt's youngest))

Avery (Merritt's oldest) took quickly to swinging like a little monkey over the foam pit!All the kiddos (minus baby Graham) together! What is so fun to me about this, is that Merrrit, Lindsay and I have all been the best of friends since birth (seriously) we have been through every step of life together (32 years) and now our kids get to be together!
Smiley Griffin (Merritt's middle) was the only one who was looking on this one!Now onto the big get-together...here are Hadley Grace and Vivienne Grace (Greg and Jeri's baby girl-they call her Vivi-Grace...I love it) they are only two weeks apart and they share the same middle name!

Some of the kids in the pool...for a short time before the downpour! (Grayson, Avery, Reese and Griffin)Pizza smiles...how cute are these three? Trey, Ryan (Paul and Lindsay's boys) and Noah (Gina's son...she has baby boy #2 coming in 6 weeks).

It was actually Vivi's first birthday that day...so we all celebrated and she loved her cupcake...the other (Vultures) were waiting for their cupcakes!
Then, bottom fell out and so we all retreated to the basement where all of the kids played with toys galore! Thanks to Nina!

Who's happy about some sugar!!! All totalled...we had 12 kids and they had a blast. I wish I had done a better job of getting pictures of all of the kids and of all of the adults! I am truly grateful for these friends...and maybe one day we can do something without the kids so we can all actually catch up! (wishful thinking)Finally, no trip to Atlanta is complete without spending some time with the girls Great-grandmother, Myrl!

We love our Myrl!
