First Vacation






This past weekend, the kids and I joined Keith in Savannah Ga for a truly FUN weekend. It would have been more fun if Keith wasnt there on Business. If you have never been to Savannah, I hightly reccommend the trip. The beach, downtown, the food, and the true southern hospitality!!!!!






The weather was fabulous, the the food was fantastic... got to go to the Lady and Sons. It was GREAT!!! I think that the kids favorite part was going to Fort Pulaski (believe it or not). Chrisitian calls it the place with all the soldiers. There was a ranger in confederate uniform who fired an authentic musket rifle.. It was really loud, but cool. Christian really liked that part.



Eventhough I had the kids the WHOLE time, they were really well behaved. They stayed together at the beach and enjoyed the cold water!!! Spending all day Sat there. Jon and Anna did get sunburned pretty badly. Yet, they still had great attitudes on Sunday. All together, I am looking forward to our next trip to Savannah. Until then, we will be heading to Va to visit our old friends and family the first week of June...Enjoy the pictures....Tomorrow, the Host is released and we will be getting a preview of the TWILIGHT Movie Trailer!!!!

Alabama Football





Well, It was just as great as we thought... Alabama football in the Spring... Man there is nothing like it!!!! The excitement the feeling in the air is so intense... it is just great. We made it to Courtneys just before some pretty big storms hit the Tuscaloosa area. Sat. was supposed to be pretty blah, but it was just FABULOUS!!! the sun was out all day and it was about 70 degrees.. It felt almost like September. If you have never gone to a spring game, you really should. I was talking to a friend from VA on my way home tonight and I almost broke down in tears when i was telling her about our time at my sisters. We stayed up until 2 am playing cards, watched movies had great conversation, watched a clip from the upcoming TWILIGHT movie...wow!!

It is so much fun getting to see them so often.. They are fabulous and we LOVE them to no end!!!Have a great night and stay warm... come back spring!!!!

Free time

I cant believe it... you might not either.. I have just read 3 books within the past 4 days.. Oh yeah, they were 500 pages EACH!!! My mind is a whirlwind of wonder and surprising emotions as i look forward to the fourth book in the series... If you have never heard of the book series titled TWILIGHT by Stephanie Meyer, you should... At first i was just strangely curious, it is a book (TRUEST of love stories) about a girl who falls in love with a vampire(i dont normally read books that would be about vampires at all).So believe me when i say i was SKEPTICALLL. But i will be the first to admit, by the first chapter, i was hooked.. I so wanted to know what was going to happen next... It is like watching 24 (for those of you who do) and having to scrusiatingly wait a whole week to see what is going to happen next. Now since i read so quickly, I have to wait til AUGUST!!! I just cant believe it... I will tell you that the most fun was having Courtney call me every hour on the hour to ask me where i had gotten too? I just had to tell her that i would be farther along if she stopped calling.... Actually it was great, she would point out something i had missed or give me a little info that was to come... she cant keep a good secret... I wish she had prepared me more for when Bella (main character) kissed someone else... I was very bothered by that and wanted to hurt her... not right!! Anyway, got to get ready for dinner and come back to reality, as keith put it .....

WHAT AM I TO DO WITH MY FREE TIME NOW????
Atleast til august or the movie?
