Weekend

This weekend was both happy and sad.

Happy because I got to spend it with Mistie. We shopped, ate out, talked, and went to the movies. We also celebrated her wedding anniversary.

My gosh, Russ, how you are so very missed.

We went to their favorite restaurant to celebrate - Flemmings - with two of her friends who also knew Russ. It was a very nice dinner and we all shared some great memories.



The wait staff there must have done some preplanning on our arrival, because there is no way cheerleader Barbie could have been our waitress on this bittersweet occasion by accident! That girl was sooo enthusiastic about the specials! Haha! But she was sweet and took very good care of us and we appreciated her.

Sunday, on my way home, I stopped and met Court and Jake for coffee. Little Man is growing! Here are some updates:





He's so special!!

Another Baby Shower!

I know this post is late, but when you see all that we did this weekend, you'll know why I needed my rest;=)


Saturday morning we get up and leave our house at 7. We drive to Mom's and drop off Noah and head on to Baton Rouge. We get to Court and Dusty's about 11:30 and Court and I head to LaPlace to get her mom's house ready for the shower. So much fun!

 
So we all worked really hard and got a lot done. It was great! Meanwhile, the boys were at Buffalo Wild Wings watching the Saints game, so we headed there to meet them. The place was packed and the energy was awesome! So proud of my hometown NFL team!!

 
 
I know, kinda blurry, but we were sitting too close!

You try to get the man to take a nice picture...haha

So, after the game, Court and I run to Barnes and Noble right quick (have I mentioned I'm addicted to the Twilight series??? Late, I know, but it's my new thing) and then meet the guys at the grocery store. Why?? Because we are going to grill!!
 

Me and the cutest lil' momma I know!

Okay, believe it or not, we still made it to bed around 11. Haha!

Sunday morning I get up early to get the spinach and artichoke dip in the oven and to make sure we have plenty of time to get everything loaded. Court and I head out to LaPlace and finish getting the food out for the shower. Amber met us there and Larry was there already (this kid has the greatest godparents!). Needless to say, this little bundle of joy is well set! Many great gifts were received. He or she also has an expansive LSU wardrobe waiting, and a few Saints pieces, too. The guys came up at the end to load all the stuff and bring it back to Baton Rouge. I, of course, forgot to bring my gift to the shower. I did think far enough in advance to have it shipped to Court and Dusty's, so they opened it when we got home. Here are the pics from Sunday:

 

The glass says "Momma's Sippy Cup". No joke!

Court opening the gift I forgot:( It even has super-cute LSU baby paper!

So the shower also gave me a chance to catch up with some old pageant buddies (and mutual friends from Courtney), which was so great! Especially Amy B. and Sara. Sara brought her new baby girl, which was awesome! She's beautiful! Not sure her stance on posting pics of the baby, so I won't post those.

So Sunday night we drove back to my mom's and slept there. Bill got up early and headed back to work. Mom and I left around lunch. We dropped Noah back at the house and went and paid for my bday present from her (which will arrive Saturday, I'll post pics then!) and then headed to Aaron and Celina's because I have a new cousin!!!


Take a look at the beautiful Angel Riley! Isn't she gorgeous?!?

So that was our super-busy weekend! Needless to say, I was in bed quite early last night. Luckily we have a fairly relaxing weekend ahead, lol. Hope everyone has a great week!

Calling Baton Rouge!

After Thanksgiving Bill and I headed to Baton Rouge to see Courtney and Dusty = and literally, that is what happened. He saw Dusty and I saw Courtney. 2 nights there and we only had one meal all together! Friday the boys golfed while we shopped and got pedicures (and fed the ducks). Saturday they tailgated all day and then went to the LSU game. They also shopped - at the LSU store! Court and I did some traditional shopping at the Mall of Louisiana and Perkins Rowe. Mistie met us for coffee and Amber came for dinner.

The whole weekend was so much fun! Can't wait to go back in January for Courtney's baby shower:)
