Our weekend in Auburn.

So this weekend we went to Auburn to see Nora be blessed. She is three months old and this is the first time I have seen her. She is so Sweet! We also celebrated her brothers Nathanal and dads B-day with a BBQ.

Tie Anyone!!

So I went Yard saleing last weekend. There was one that started at 5:30 that said it had lots of sewing stuff and material, so I decided to go. I was set my alarm to go off at 5, well JD did not want me to go because he kept waking up.. anyway I got there at about 7. Well they had about 5 boxes of material and batting and a box of ties... for those who don't know, JJ's Grandma makes Quilts with ties. So I offered 5 dollars for the whole box of ties. (they were asking 50 cents per tie) she said yes. Guess how many ties were in the box?????



There were over 40 ties!!!!! CRAZY huh?

5 Months and getting big.

So my baby is 5 months old! It has gone by so fast I can't believe it! He has learned a few new tricks. Below are pictures of him sitting up and in his new tub. He love the tub and wanted to get the frog that was in there with him.



This is his buddy Kempton. They are a week apart. Kempton is about an inch and 1/2 Taller but JD is about a pound heavier.

Girls Night

Well ladies of Tuscaloosa (and the nieghboring whereabouts), it is finally time for another girls night... what does this mean???? welll, get the hubbies situated with the kiddos' and enjoy a night of just us gals doing just gal things.
A recap of our last night out : eyebrow waxing, a yummy dinner at chipotle's, and then some window shopping at midtown, along with some special purchasing advice ;)
This time, we will be doing a dip night/recipe exchange. That means make and bring your favorite dip and whatever the heck goes with it, ei chips and dip/veggies or fruit and dip/WHATEVER! Just make sure you bring the recipe written on an index card on one side, THEN on the OTHER side, write a little bit about yourself, like a little auto biography. THEN, make sure you bring some of your favorite cookbooks and some post-it-notes to stick to the recipe's of other's cook books. then what you will do is take home your books and make copies for whoever wanted one out of your books, and then bring them to church or the library or playgroup and everyone else will do the same. any questions???
while we're searching for new meals, we can gab and watch a movie, so bring a favorite and we can choose from there, OR make suggestions and i can get it from netflix! any questions now???
oh yes, the info! Saturday, July 19 at 5:30 at Joane Loden's house.
let anyone you think might need a break or be interested know!

RED, WHITE, AND BLUE 4th of July

So Joane and I had been planning for the 4th of July.... well over 6 months, however; you really can't plan on the weather to be what you want. Plus I thought we were running low on some of the main "Food Group" (the Meat) and asked Joane to go to the store. We had too much! One day very soon I will understand that when she says we have enough... we have enough. Plus I need to shot out to my Mom and Dad. "Thanks for watching John-David and thanks for grill'n those Delicious hot dogs and hamburgers!!!!."
So early morning 4th Joane and I go to the UA pool on campus with the Kira and Pete, Kellie and Andrew. So much fun. John-David had his own little inter tube with its own little splash pool. He totally had a long day with lots of excitement. I was toasted and felt like I was on fire the whole night.
But as the say... Save the best for last. Here are some unedited pictures and video of JD's first 4th of July.
