Our 4th of July Weekend

We have had another blessed weekend! We have had a busy, but relaxing weekend, and tomorrow I get to be a SAHM! Woo Hoo! Thursday night Lana came to spend the night with us, and the next morning when Caroline awoke she was so excited to see Lana. In fact, she has been saying Lana this weekend! She will say Lala Lana lala Lana! Will has some catching up to do... Lana was such a huge help with Caroline while I packed...Thanks Lana!

Before leaving to go see Matt, we headed up to Baptist to check on Papaw. He had to have surgery, but he is doing much better now. Thank you all for your prayers. Hopefully he will be coming home sometime next week.
We have crossed the Mississippi River many times this past year. I would bet that Caroline has crossed this bridge more in the first year of her life, than she will ever again! I have not once taken a picture of our Mother-Daughter adventure, but I had the camera ready this time around. I love being on road trips with Caroline! She is the best travel buddy! Matt and I have life long goals to reach, and one of our goals is for just the three of us to go to all states before Caroline has graduated high school. So far we have Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, and Texas marked off of our list. We will not count all the places we went with Caroline in my belly!

Matt studied with Caroline this weekend in the backseat of the car, while I went into a few consignment shops in Tupelo. I receive travel information for the different states and towns accross the country and one information packet talked about the consignment shops in Tupelo. Boy oh Boy! We found bargains! Some dresses still had the tags on them! Grand total= $28.00








This was Caroline's favorite purchase of the day...she would not give them up!

We left Tupelo this morning headed home, but we got to stop in Memphis to meet a very special someone...Holly! I always enjoy my visit with Holly! We stopped and ate at Spaghetti Warehouse for the first time. It is definetely going to be on our list to go back and visit. A wonderful atmosphere, with wonderful food, with a wonderful friend. A wonderful ending to a wonderful day!

  1. Glad y'all had a good weekend. Y'all are Tupelo experts! Love her new outfits! Especially the plaid with spaghetti straps and the turqoise with bloomers. And can't wait to see her in cute jeans...such a big girl! Let's go consignment hunting soon.
