Another Fabulous Weekend!

This weekend was a fun one!


Friday Night:

David and I went on a date to Red Lobster and then went shopping at T.J. Maxx. While at Red Lobster, I spotted a guy across the room that looked really familiar. The more I looked, the more I realized it was a bloggy person from online. I told David, "I'm going over there!" He turned a little pink from anxiety at me approaching a stranger, but it was Mandee and her husband!!! Though she is a blogging friend, we knew each other in high school, but hadn't seen each other in years!




Saturday Morning:

My mom called and asked if she could come over and give us some early Valentine's presents! She had a bone wrapped up in toliet paper roll for Bichon! Bichon loves to chew on toliet paper rolls! : ) David and I have been married almost seven years, and Bichon is our only child. My mom adores her! She also made us a yummy cookie in a jar mix, bought us each new house slippers, and some scrumptious flannel sheets. My mom is the epitome of fabulous!






















Saturday Night:

David won tickets to the Razorback game at a bank dinner recently held at the Town's Center. They were for great seats on row 8!! Wow! We were right there in the action. I LOVE the Hogs! I cried during the anthem and when the players ran out. I am a complete cheese ball and extremely sensitive!

















Sunday Afternoon:

I started the afternoon off by making some new "birthday" and "thinking of you cards!"









Sunday Night:

David and our nephew, Adam, worked our acre of land. They cut down hickory trees and cleared brush. It was a beautiful day! I loved being outside, taking pictures of them.



















I love this view! : )

  1. We went to a b-day party in Stillwell, and on our way through PG last night we were driving in different neighborhoods when I realized we were in front of your house (I actually recognized it). We almost stopped, but we thought you were probably at church!

    We were at the game too--it was a GREAT game! My palms always get a little sweaty and my stomach gets butterflies--I love the opening of the game so much when the players all run out!

  35. ok i will not leave you alone until you start hosting a bible study at your home. you have such an infectious personality and you are obviously an incredible hostess. Have you done any beth moore studies? If not they are so amazing. I have done all of them and it has been what has helped disciple me over the last decade. I just think you would have a blast! Let me know what you think Jess!
