"A" Day with James and Maggie!!!


Saturday, April 17th was A-Day for Alabama Football...James and Maggie talked about watching "bootball" all week.  We were not sure how well they were going to do...they are much more mobile than they were last year. I figured that "surely, 8 adults can contain 2 kids..." but I forgot the two kids were the infamous "Worm and Ggie Ggie". 

The event crew attempted to tell me I could not take in my stroller, but since I walked ahead of the group, they figured I was alone...so, I basically smuggled in my stroller and it was like contraband, considering most of the other people were told they could not bring it in.

It was such a pretty day to be outside...although James could not quite figure it all out. He continuously asked to go "outside" and when we told him we were, he kinda had that "what you talkin' 'bout Willis" look on his face.  He greeted everyone with a "woll tid woll" and arms up in the typical touchdown motion...his dada is so proud!!!

last day for this field...it will be ripped up and new laid in just a few weeks.

it is beginning to fill up...roughly 91K + in attendance!!!

oh the places we will go...



What a HANDSOME little man!!! Having so much fun...

and they were swingin'... they are so carefree and happy on a swing!!!
We ventured out with our neighbors for a morning at the park. J&M loved being there; we brought snack and played for almost two hours.  I am sure they would have played longer, but it was lunch time, close to nap time and the "big kids" were about to knock over my little kids time...which would not have made for mama of the year TIME!  We will definitely go back, especially with our Great Neighbors (sorry no pic; he was having too much fun to slow down for a picture)!

What a BEAUTIFUL little girl... she was loving every minute!

HAIR today and DONATED tomorrow!!!









I decided several months ago to donate my hair... since there was an impending wedding, I chose to wait until after the wedding...as not to ruin any possible photos. So, Monday April 5th (2 days following the wedding)...I CUT MY HAIR! This is HUGE in my book...I have not had hair this short since 1st or 2nd grade (following an awful stint with a boys haircut...but that is another story for another post). I figured donating my hair would be a Good Thing...therefore I strategically planned it out; Sherry (a co-worker and FABULOUS Friend) was willing to take her time, measure 5-6(hundred) times, and hold my hand if necessary...while she CUT OFF MY HAIR! I was nervous…I won’t lie about that, but I was ready. I needed a change…and if nothing else it is just hair and it will grow back. In the mean time, I will save a ton on Shampoo! Just as an FYI...according to the Pantene Beautiful Lengths website, it takes 6-8 ponytails to make a wig, well my friends...not only did I donate hair, but I just might have donated a WHOLE WIG!!!


it's a CELEBRATION!!!

The best we could do...was an iPhone picture!!

What a handsome Groom (on the Left) and his Best Man (my Hubby on the Right)

The Beautiful Bride and Groom!!!

What a great looking family!


This is from Mark (Keith's Brother) and Stephanie's (my co-worker) Wedding on April 3rd!!!
We are so happy for them both!!!
