Memphis

Colt, Parker and I went to Memphis, TN the weekend before last and then Parker and I stayed the rest of last week. We stayed with my parents and sisters and Colt had to come back and work... if you read the last blog you know that my blog was hacked and I LOVE what he wrote! It was a great surprise!! I am really blessed with a thoughtful loving husband! Sorry ladies, he is taken;)

We had so much fun in Memphis! Parker got lots of love and attention from family, friends and my sister's friends. The first weekend we were there, he got to see all three sets of his great grandparents (on my side... the Woolever's, Voegeli's and Horne's)! I want to thank my parents and sisters for a wonderful week! I miss them very much and I am SO thankful for them and their unconditional love!

So much went on last week, I do not know where to begin.... The first weekend started with a nail polish incident, family pictures, dinner with my grandparents and Sue and Johnny from Dallas, TX (they were driving through - on their road trip) Michele's band concert, and dinner with Kat and Josh. During the week, we had dinner, lunch, and went shopping with Jamie; my sisters had their last week of school, Michele's friends played with Parker, we checked Allison out of school for lunch (she was exempt from exams), shopped in downtown Arlington, TN, I cooked dinner for my family, grandparents and Aunt Sheri, had dinner with Kyle and Tiffany, a dinner with Kat, hung out in my parents cove with a few of the Moms, I took video of little girls spying;), ran a few times, Allison left for Disney World, Parker learned a new "word" and last but not least Jamie and I went to Addison and David's wedding reception. We only went to the wedding reception because I had to put Parker to bed and Jamie had a baby shower. It was such a fun time and was so great seeing everyone!

Since I have been back to Birmingham, AL it has been super busy too! Sunday, I had to pack everything up (I think I packed up my house and took it ALL to Memphis) and drive back. I wanted to make it back in time to go to Molly's Baccalaureate... I did make it back in time, but I was not dressed and Parker was still in his PJ's. So, I unpacked the car and got Parker and myself ready for dinner with Colt's family. The next day, we had Molly's graduation!! (I will post pics in a later blog) All day before Molly's graduation Aunt Casey spent the day with Parker. During Molly's graduation, Chris and Jenna watched Parker for us. Maggie, Cooper and Parker had the best time together! Also, Tiffany came in town to visit her dad and lucky for me he had to work so she spent the past 3 days with me and Parker! Colt and I also had a great surprise visit from Wes Hamm! Then tonight we had our Sunday School Social at the DeRieux's house! It was so much fun! We have a wonderful class!

As usual I am leaving out a ton of details and I know you are tired of reading this by now! If you are still reading this... thank you!

I think Annie needs one! :) She can say touchdown and a mumbled version of roll tide roll...with the motions AND "sparkle fingers"! You'd be SO proud! Miss you Friend! Sweet family you have!
