Block Party

I love, love, love, my neighbors!! I really do feel like God led us to this house, because we have made some of the best friends just by walking out of our front door!! We're all so close and we look out for each other just like a little family!! And almost every single night all the girls go outside for our "6:00 meeting" and we chit chat while all our kids play!! We always have such a good time that we decided to have a block party!! Because, obviously, we needed even more time together!! Lucky for the guys they were invited!! Lucky for us they were there because we got to eat!! Everybody pulled their grills to the end of the cul de sac to cook out!!

The NRC Posse - Nichole, Sara, Me, Narnie (Mrs. Candy), Tiffany, Krista, & Ginger

The Boys - Tanner, Scotty, Jonathan, Andrew, Jackson, Jason, Jim, Christian, Carter, & David

Nichole brought watermelon that she'd cut up to the block party and wanted to know if Tanner wanted some!! He'd never had any before so we gave him some to see what he'd do!! The look on his face says it all..."Mom, are you sure about this?"

You obviously didn't hafta twist his arm!! He dove right in and enjoyed every bite!!

Our family

Ginger has a little white dog named Cotton. Tanner was playing at her house one day and "Con" (Cotton) became one of the first words in his vocabulary!! He loves "Con"!!

And this is Narnie (Mrs. Candy). We love her so much!! She's so good to all of us, but especially Tanner!! That's her "boyfriend"!! She's got lots of little boyfriends on our cul de sac!! She's always passing out popsicles to the kids!! When Tanner needs "help" eating his, I've always got his back!! Yummy!! (P.S. - the Mt. Dew ones are the best!!) Her grandson, Brandon, gave her the name Narnie so that's what Tanner calls her!!

Krista is my inspiration to let Tanner "cry it out"!! Eventhough I haven't gotten my nerve up yet, she's always there to give me a pep talk!! Preesh!! No more crashin' jewelry parties for us!!

Tiffany is the reason my plants don't look like weeds!! She's so got a green thumb!! I love our little chit chats!!

Tanner with the big boys!!

Nichole is just great!! That's all I can say!! She's such a great friend and she loves Tanner so much!! I can't thank her enough for all she's done for us!! We always have so much fun with her and Tanner loves her too!! He's extremely comfortable with his "Aunt" Nichole!!

Graduation Party

Well, a few months ago (don't remember the date....oops!!) we said farewell to the FMRC Class of '09. We were sad to see them go, but excited at the same time because it means now WE'RE 3rd YEARS!!!! Yay!! I thought this would never get here, but it has!! So here's some pictures from our party!!

Me & Scotty

Jennifer Harris, Angie Crosswhite, Me - our husbands all went to Med School together at UMC!! We started this thing together and now we're gonna finish it!!

Me & Heather....her husband's an Intern so they're just getting started!! But, Heather, I promise it flies by and call WILL get better!! Hang in there!!

What's a party without these boys doin a little kareoke?

Facebook

Well, well, well!!! Me and Scotty have finally given in to all the hype!! We both got Facebook pages!! Honestly, I can't believe we actually did it. We always said would never get anything like that because you never know who's gonna talk to you, you can't control what people say, we had the blog to share pictures so we were just gonna steer clear of Facebook. But apparently Facebook has taken over the world, because everybody we talk to says, oh i'll just hit you up on Facebook. Facebook this, Facebook that!! I think we may have been the only people in America that didn't have pages so we gave in!! And I must say, we've had it for 4 days and I'm already getting tons of friends!! I felt really popular the first day because I had like 50 friends and I was OMG I should've done this a long time ago!! Everybody loves me!! And then I started looking at peoples pages and they all had like over 800 friends!! I quickly realized I'm really not all that popular!! HAHAHA!! But, it really is neat to see pics and talk to people you haven't seen in a long time!! But OMG!!! All the lingo is really gettin to me!! Like a wall? What? I don't even know how to work all this hullabaloo, but I guess I'll figure it out!! But don't worry I'm much more of a blog kinda girl, so this whole Facebook phase of my life will not drown out the Blog!!
