Girl's Night

That time again.....watch out world here we come! GiRlS GoNe WiLD NiTe!!! Started the evening at a local steakhouse....lick your lips good! Quick Wal-Mart run then off to the movie. Couldn't decide on a movie because EVERY movie that someone mentioned, someone had already seen it. So off to the dollar movies to see PROM. Interesting night might I say inside the theater. Rowdy teenagers TRIED to ruin our night but oh no they didn't! They did not know who they were dealing with....Tonya, Charlotte, Debbie, and April that is! Finally, they left....we gave them a round of applause as they walked out! Made a 11:00 run to Krispy Kreme another yum yum! Thanks girls for another night of fun and laughter!

Aunt Di is the BIG 50!~

On May 14, 2011, we celebrated our Aunt Di's 50th birthday. She is my mother-in-law's sister. She was surrounded by family and friends. A good-time was had by all! Aunt Di has been wonderful to my boys. She and I worked together for about four years at a local toy store, and we became good friends as well as closer relatives. She spoiled my boys with love and affection! She has always been there when ever I have needed her. My boys love to spend the night at Aunt Di's! Picture of her immediate family.....showing off her NEW grandbaby....Langdon!~

Quack, Quack the duck park





















The 3 Musketeers: Sarabeth, Caleb and Rylee enjoying the duck park. We had been to see the movie "Hop" and got pizza from Little Ceasars. yum yum









Sea of Red

What a beautiful, breath-taking site.....a field of crimson clover (or at least that is what my moma calls it). This field is located between some of my in-laws homes. The rocket in the background was placed in this special spot when I was just a small child. I can remember them moving it from one location to another because we rode by to see it.





Rylee and I .....Caleb would not get his picture taken! ugh!

All my bunny friends came out to play.......

Better late than never is what I always say! I know a little late for sharing my Easter Tablescape. I have had my table decorated for over a month, but getting the photos uploaded onto computer and then posted is another story! I will keep it short like a fluffy bunny tail!

Centerpiece is nestled on top of a pewter cake plate placed in the center of a floral wreath. The dried hydrangea have been in several TT. I used two different tablecloths....one floral and then burlap.



The light got a little Easter bling bling!



Ol' faithful paper plates from Hobby Lobby, Gibson cup and saucer. The green transferware was purchased at an antique store. Glass tumbler is from Target.










This is what I like to do on a Sunday afternoon....take a peaceful nap!






Petter invited a few of his friends over for a little gathering! The more the merrier!




Happy Easter to all! Hope everyone enjoyed their time with their family and friends! Thanks for stopping by!

















Science Fair Poster

Rylee's school had their first Science Fair since the late 90's. It was a mandatory event for all grades K-5. We started with a blank outline of the state of Alabama because the theme was Outdoor Alabama. We decided on "Birds of Alabama". Then my "teacher-mode" took over. It was very hard for me not to do the ENTIRE poster! :) I outlined the state with tiny twigs then we glued bird seed inside. We got a poster from the store Wild Birds Unlimited. They gave us a poster and some other materials. The poster was very useful. Hot glued some native bird pictures onto the poster. Told Rylee what to write and .......Drum ROLL......finished product!







He did not win....don't know why.....BUT I thought it turned out very well, and we were very creative. Great minds think a like!
