I'll be there for you...

You must sing the "Friends" theme song while reading this post. Do it. It makes it more fun. Promise.

I have the greatest friends. The Lord has truly blessed me with amazing women in my life. I have sweet friends all the way from Kindergarten to brand new friends here in Florida.

Although I love all my friends, I hold a very special place in my heart for 4 dear college friends. I could not have made it through my four years of college without these women. I lived in the sorority dorm with these women. I ate almost every meal with these women. I laughed and cried with these women. I talked about Trey with these women. I walked down the aisle to Trey and stood with these women. They are so very special to me.

Every year or year and a half, we try to see each other. We live all over the country and it is hard to make our schedules work. This year, we were all able to meet up in Tennessee at a lakehouse. We did absolutely nothing and it was perfect. The highlight of the weekend was when Meghan and Meagan told us they are expecting babies in October. They are due one week apart and both are having sweet little boys : ) I am so excited that our little crew is growing with more babies!!!

Love all of you soooo much!!!

Anna's reaction to Meghan and Meagan's Big News: )

The only boy, sweet little Judson, invited to the girls weekend: )

The Crew: Meagan, Meghan, Anna, Me, Jessica, and Judson.
We can't wait to add two more babies to this crew : )

So, I haven't blogged in seven months and I have a new nephew...

This is just my style. I don't blog in 7 months and a lot of stuff happens. We have had Thanksgiving, Christmas, a lot of other holidays, and my sister had a new baby. One day I will stay on top of things. Yeah, right.

So, back at Thanksgiving, my sister announced that she was having a new baby, making me an aunt for the third time. To say that I was excited would be an understatement. I love kids. I especially love kids that are related to me and call me Aunt Jen.

The night that the kids told my grandparents. They were just a little excited.


Since I completely stopped blogging and missed all holidays for seven months, here is our Christmas card for 2012. Yes, our stuffed elk is in the picture. My husband won this year. 



The Marlin Crew-Christmas 2012



Amanda went into labor on May 13th and I was in Florida. Thank goodness for Facetime. I got to meet this little guy over a phone. 



Robert Alison Pilkinton is perfect. Like for real. Yes, he is the prettiest baby every. Totally not biased at all.


I was able to fly up to Tennessee on the same day that little Rob was born to enjoy his sweetness. I stayed for over a week just to soak it all in. I am completely in love with the little guy. We are so blessed.
