Houston's and Lacey's "wedding" party was this weekend. It was GREAT fun with AMAZING food. All the hosts and hostesses did a fabulous job! We had a great time...
AND... I took Murphy with me!!
*Murphy is my camera incase some of you are just joining in*

Here are some of Murph's party highlights:

If you know me at all you know that I spent a "healthy" amount of time in this room.... ha!

The food was absolutely wonderful. I especially LOVED the barbeque!

AND... did you see those amazing centerpieces?? Houston is a HUGE duck hunter so I thought it was super neat how they decorated the table!

If you know Sarah at all.. you KNOW we had to have a "goofy" picture... Lacey and Casey clearly haven't warmed up to the "goofy" pictures yet..ha!

Unfortunately Anna wasn't at the party to join in on the family photo fun BUT.. she was having her own little party with one of my very best friends and her husband. I think and HOPE they had a ball! Kelly- send me some pictures if you took any! LOVE YOU- you're the best ever!!! Thanks for everything!!

FOOTBALL-

The morning after the party Casey, Anna and I woke up entirely too early to head out and watch the REBELS play. Anna didn't actually make it to the game... BUT... Murphy made it to the game!

These are some of my favorite shots

It was a great game (for once). Ole Miss played really well and Dexter McCluster (#22) played amazing! If I'm not mistaken, I think he got National Player of the Week or something like that!! It was a lot of fun! The whole weekend was fun.

Oh.. and Cooper and Eli Manning were at the game. I zoomed up there with my camera and got a picture (but it looks a little "foggy").. sorry:

Thanks T&P for letting us stay the night with you!!!

TURKEY MAGNETS-

Remember I told you that we went to paint pottery with the "R" family not too long ago? WELL, this is what Anna painted-

"Happy Thanksgiving Magnets"... I was going to do them all nice and neat and use her toe print for the turkey body, but before I could stop her, The Little dabbled her hand all up in the paint and picked up the little magnet.... That's when it occurred to me that she could just play with it some. (I helped her pat "downward strokes" to look sort of like feathers.) We did her toe print over the body and then I outlined a "turkey" and wrote "happy thanksgiving".
I thought they turned out pretty cute.

She did three:

FACEBOOK-

I'm officially OFF facebook! YEP, I'm sorry if you've been trying to contact me for the last couple of days but from now on I'm just sticking to emails (my email is on the sidebar). Facebook is great for many things but it was not good for me. It was an addiction and I did not have good "Facebook dicsipline" SO... I just decided to eliminate the source. I have too much to do to be browsing people's pictures on facebook every time I walk by the computer! Not that I think it is bad for any of you to have facebook.. please don't take me the wrong way.. it was just bad for me.

It's like this: (I read this on a church sign last night and really liked it...)

"Give God what is RIGHT not what is LEFT!"
I think they were talking about our tithes...but I thought about it as giving what is right of MY TIME.. not what is left after I've spent all day doing what I want to do!!!

Okay.. y'all have a happy day and I'll be back with pictures of the Little.. since I'm sure that is what you were looking for in this post =)
If you want to see some.. or the rest of the party pics or football pics just click on any of the above photos and it should take you to my Flickr page!

Be back soon!

  1. You are amazing...wife, mother, Master Blogger, freelance photographer(oohh I'm a poet). It was all going so well and then you reaffirmed my own concerns about FB. I've been teetering for a few weeks now...trying to rationalize it. I'm like you though...for me personally it isn't good. I can't believe my ball hasn't rolled out of my BB yet! Loved your post...as usual! The Little did an awesome job with the magnets. She is so crafty already!
