Random Pics of Speirs

Weekend Fun!

Craig finally got a Saturday off...and one that we could spend in our city! It was marvelous to say the least. We got to grill out with friends on Friday, Farmer's Market Saturday morning and then music downtown with Daniel, Melissa and Miss Hannah. We assumed our weekend fun was over after corporate worship on Sunday morning but after having some Mellow with a group from church, we spontaneously decided to go hike/climb at Pilot Mountain. The weekend was great and I'm so glad we got to enjoy it as a family!

Speirs never really gets a great nap on Sunday morning because of his time in the nursery, so in the afternoon he usually crashes. I wondered how he would handle the hike and he did so wonderful! He fell asleep sitting up! HA! poor kid. Hope you enjoy some of the pics from the weekend!

Mr. Owen Speirs...lookin' tough

Krankies- the Local Coffee Place that we love.

Jak & Jewel

My good friend, Angela, from 1.21 is just starting a business with her mom called Jak & Jewel. And in honor of their fabulous product, I thought I would advertise their debut trunk show August 14th and 15th. They are making THE CUTEST little girl clothes I have ever seen. Seriously, I wouldn't lie about this! And check out Kate and Anneliese, Angela's little girls, they make the clothes look even cuter than they already are! Check out their blog for more information!

Afternoon in the Park

Living in a city is great, you dont have to have swings in your backyard you can just walk up the street to the local park. Free Fun for an 8 month old....and who am I kidding...for two 24 year olds too! We did some swinging and throwing the baseball.

2 Years

Craig and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary on May 19th. What a special two years it has been! We have certainly learned a lot about marriage and God's purpose for it. I love this quote by John Piper and I am learning more and more about how to live it out.

"...That is what love is: the pursuit of our own joy in the joy of the beloved."

I can definitely say that our marriage is sweeter today than on May 19, 2007 and what a blessing that is!

We waited to actually "celebrate" when we would be going on vacation for our friends weddings in Virginia and Maryland. We ate at the Chart House in Annapolis, MD and loved it. Here are some pics from that wonderful Saturday in May 2007.


My beautiful maid of honor...Ms. Megan Sadler...now MRS. Megan CARR:)

My beautiful friends that are lights in my life.

These were just setting the tone for the numerous dance parties that go on in the West home, car, etc. etc. Our children will one day get to play a part in these.

Look at Daniel Bass' face....he had just pegged Craig in the face with bird seed...HA...good times!
