Glenn turned 60 on February 28th

Happy birthday Glenn!!!  This year, Glenn and his buddies turned 60.  We celebrated with Fearon and his family a few weeks ago and then we went to the Hard Rock this past weekend to celebrate Glenn's birthday.  David turned 60 on March 1st so it was a double celebration  The Jenne's, the Cunninghams, and the Mays joined us and we had a blast.  We had a lot of fun and ate way too much good food.

Friday night we all met up at Mikey's in Ocean Springs and had dinner.  Then we saw Travis Tritt in concert.  He put on a great show as usual.  Of course we had to play a little, but by 11 we were in our rooms for the night.  We had a big king sized bed and windows that were blocked out so we slept in late (for us) the next morning

Saturday we met up with everybody at the Schooner for lunch.  Afterwards the the guys headed to Sports Academy and the girls (with David in tow) headed to the Garden Show at the Coliseum.  We all bought a few plants and then the guys came to get David and the girls headed to the mall.  Ellen and I were dragging and so we decided to go back to the Casino to take a nap.  When the guys returned, we all hung out in the room for a while.  Of course, we had to mess with Joey so we were constantly sending him pictures.  So glad my baby boy is a good sport.  After everybody got freshened up, we headed down to the casino to play until 7, when we met up for dinner.  I think everybody enjoyed the crab legs.  We had fun till late in the night.

Sunday morning we checked out and returned to the real world.  We had boarded Harley and I was going to leave her there until we got unpacked because she is always so helpful.  I missed her so much I went ahead and got her, but I didn't have to worry.  She was so exhausted from playing with her buddies at Karen's that she slept the rest of the day and into the next.

We had a great time and agreed that we will definitely do it again soon. 

Can't Wait....

This is the last week of school before Christmas holidays. We are busy taking district assessments, finishing up projects, making art projects and trying to have a little fun. The kids are very excited, which makes it vey hard to keep them focused on those things that have to be done. I know how they feel.

This weekend Joey went hunting and I went up to Hattiesburg and spent the night. It was so nice to spend a little time with them and Josie was all about Deedy. I don't think she has every been so excited about me being up there. They were coming down with a cold, but even with colds they are so happy, which makes me happy.

Glenn is busy at work too. He has even been working on Saturday. He is getting two weeks off at Christmas and we are going to spend some lazy time on Fulton Avenue. The girls are coming down before Christmas and I plan to get the boys to come over and show Josie the ropes on decorating cookies. I have to finish up my shopping and make candy with my sister. I have promised my mom to spend some time with her and promised to take my mother-in-law to Carthage to handle some business and see a few friends. Glenn plans on hunting a few days and we are keeping our fingers crossed that we can possibly get away for a few days of R & R. I am not sure if two weeks is enough time to squeeze all those activities into, but I plan on giving it a try. I plan on making some memories and I can't wait.

Happy Birthday Mom and Lots of PF Chang

While Daddy was sick, I stayed close to Pascagoula, but several weeks before he passed away, my sister Sandy came down and insisted that I get away for the weekend. It was around my mom's birthday and my sister Christi invited all of us to stay at her condo in Destin for a girl's weekend, which was sorely needed. Thank you Christi for your hospitality.

I am sad to say that only one picture was taken that weekend and it was of me on the couch with bed hair, curled up watching a movie and I don't think anyone is interested of seeing that picture. We never even put on a bathing suit, but that was what made it so enjoyable. We just laid around, watched movies on tv and went for rides on the golf cart. We did go out to eat (twice) to PF Changs. That is my new favorite restaurant thanks to my sister. Moma isn't into oriental food, but she was a trooper and went anyway. She wasn't too keen on the food, but even she admitted that the appetizers and dessert were awesome.

I had promised Mom we would spend some quality time together this summer while I was out on vacation, and then Daddy was diagnosed with cancer. I wasn't able to keep my promise, but she understood. So, even though I am late, I want to wish my mother a happy birthday. I love you bunches!!!!!
