Bowling with my department

We had a "brokerage outing" this past friday at the bowling alley. Here are some pictures of me and my coworkers. We had a great time. And we got to leave work early so that is always a plus!!

Katelyn eating spaghetti

We gave Katelyn some spaghetti last night and let her feed herself. It became a big mess. She started off good then as you can see she decided to pick the bowl up and lick it so it got all over her forehead. Needless to say she went straight to the tub after eating. She is like her daddy and loves spaghetti. Also notice how nice and neat Brayden was while he was eating his spaghetti. Brayden said "Katelyn is messy" .. you got that right!! ALSO Katelyn misses her Daddy.. he is now in booneville working at his new job at Caterpillar. We hope to be there really soon!

Girls Trip to the Beach

We had a great time in Gulf Shores. It was so good getting to see everyone and hang out at the beach and the pool. We went friday night and had some "very strong" margaritas on a yacht with Captain Larry. They were strong for this light weight momma that never drinks anymore.

The girls on the yacht


We went to eat at this great place called Genos. We had shrimp, corn on the cob, sausage.. YUM YUM. Love me some shrimp. Also aren't the two preggers Margo and Emily so cute?



This is the view from our balcony.



Pictures of me with Margo and Candy



So I was thinking about changing up my hair.. this is a picture of my friend Mary Katherines hair.. isn't it so cute. I don't know if i could go that short but i just love it. So maybe one day I will be brave enough to cut mine off.


We had such a good time. I miss hanging out with my girls. Luckily I will be closer to a few of them when I move.

Going to the beach

Friday morning we are headed for Gulf Shores. My best friends from college and me are going to Gulf Shores for our 1st annual Girls Trip. I am so excited. No hubbies and no kids.. just us girls relaxing on the beach and catching up. This is LONG overdue. It so good when we can all get together. I will of course miss Michael and Katelyn ALOT but this mom needs a break. I will post pictures when I get back. Wish me luck because this will be my first time away from Katelyn for longer than one night. She will be with her daddy so she is in good hands. Also Michael leaves for Booneville on Sunday to start his new job.

Braydens bday and family reunion

This weekend was my nephew Brayden's 4th birthday party.. We weren't able to go b/c we were going out of town so we went over to see Brayden the week of his birthday.


Brayden playing with his new golf set and golf course his Nana and Papaw gave him.

We went to Booneville Friday night and stayed with Michaels parents. We had a family reunion on Saturday and also a suprise bday party for his stepmom. She turned 50. We had all kinds of great gag gifts and an over the hill sash for her to wear. We had a great time. It was really hott so we were pooped afterwards. Katelyn slept almost the whole way home. Here are some pictures from Booneville.


Katelyn and her cousin Reed playing.. aren't they sweet?




Wanda (Michael's stepmom) getting all her over the hill suprises.



We went to Cock of the Walk to eat Sunday night. My gran from Arkansas is in town and its her favorite place. This is Brayden feeding the ducks. I don't have any pictures of katelyn because once they started coming towards her she got scared. Like mother like daughter.. haha

MOVING TO BOONEVILLE

So Michael got a job at Catepillar in Booneville, MS. He starts on July 21st. this means no more working on the weekends.. YEAH. Katelyn and me are staying in Jackson until we can sell our house and until I find a job. So if anyone knows of anything around the Tupelo, booneville, corinth area.. LET ME KNOW. We are really excited, this is a great job for Michael and Cat is a great company to work for.

4th of July Fun

We had a great 4th. Katelyn got in the swimming pool, rode around in braydens jeep, ate popsicles, and we had a princess birthday party to go to. We found what we are getting katelyn for her birthday.. its a pink little car that I can push her around in. She loved it so much that she didn't want to get out. i had to bribe her with food to keep her from screaming in toysrus.

Happy 4th of July a day early... i hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday weekend. We don't have much planned.. probably just play outside and maybe go to the pool. Have a great one!

Katelyn playing on her swingset

My sister gave us her old swingset when they got a new one. Katelyn loves it. She had so much fun on it. As you can see her hair is blowing everywhere!!! She is teething right now. She has a third bottom tooth coming in and her top two teeth. Luckily she has not been waking up during the night lately... KNOCK ON WOOD!! But last night I gave her motrin, teething tablets, and oragel just to make sure she would be ok and that i could sleep. haha
