LONG TRIP

The boys and I have been on our bi-yearly trip to Tennessee. They had a meet in Knoxville. We like to break up the trip with a pit stop at my parent's house. So after a busy crazy week with Mardi GRAS festivities, company, and a banquet to pull off... We got on the road Wednesday. Arrived in Knoxville on Thursday to 80degree weather. Something was very wrong with that picture.

The swims were a little disappointing for the boys. Only 2 best times. Hard to swallow when they put in so much hard work. But they had swum the weekend before and had all best times. Easy come easy go. We enjoyed time with our swim family and my family but missed McSweetie.

He was productive while we were gone. Hung out with his mom and our friends were sweet to feed him. And was elected Deacon while we were gone. (told y'all God is doing some big things with our family)

I'll leave you with what I found when I arrived home today...


(I think someone is ready for me to be home!! How sweet!)

SHE is HOME!!!

AND she is BEAUTIFUL!!

I was so excited when I got the text from my friend last night saying she was finished with B!!

She is a full service friend and loaded her up and brought her home! Her kiddos came... My kiddos (big and small) were here... And this is the GRAND REVEAL!!!!!




Isn't she the CUTEST chair EVAH!!?? I sat in her and watched Frasier last night. I am about to go and do my reading for the day. She is PERFECT for me!! And my friend did a FABULOUS JOB!! If you live close by and need something slipped... Holler at me and I will hook y'all up!!

There is big stuff going on at our house!! God is working in big ways! I will post more about that later! Need my computer for that post! For now let's just say we are in for some really fun times in the near future!!

Another side note... MG parades in our little town start this weekend! I hope I get a mint moon pie or two! (but if I don't that's ok too cause I saved a box from my own stash of throws!!).

Happy almost weekend to y'all!!

Isn't EVERY DAY

a PARTY???


Well, maybe not Every day but i think they should. Of course if you had asked me this last Wednesday I probably would have sat down on the floor and CRIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUCKETS!!!!!!!!! Why? Couldn't tell ya! I'm chalking it up to a hormone thing and MOVING ON!!!

So Friday WAS a party... getting geared up for my RIDE... Another Day In Paradise and our float is Come Sail Away.. nautical theme... sailor hats... flags... I am getting pretty excited! Our mandatory meeting is tonight {the only meeting I will have attended ALL YEAR! Haven't even seen our float. Will be sure to take my camera. And of course thanks to my bootcamp classes, I can wear my cute white jeans {I know it is February, but it is a party y'all} and my CUTE new blue and white stripe top... with some fab accessories from Charming Charlies.

Saturday was a party of sorts... Our church hosted open mic night for the kids and I was asked to help work the snack bar. I was the queen of the smoothie machine. And I knew our youth was talented but MAN i was BLOWN away!! They also had the rock wall going and you know Number 2 son had a ball climbing! Number 1 skipped out a little early to attend a friend's Birthday Party. She attends boarding school up north and was home for her birthday.

And of course YESTERDAY was a PARTY, "SOUPER" BOWL party! And we had a house full! So fun to be with our friends... life is pretty much a party.. sometimes a party of one or maybe 21... So enjoy EVERY DAY!!

Party on my friends!
