Come On Spring & Healthy Family

This weekend we had much going on! Well It seemed that Way, Of course Camp had burned his hand pretty bad last Friday, That day was full of Dr. Appt, and Cries and Sleep,

Saturday, March 26, 2011


Saturday came and was supposed to be Me going to Little Rock to photograph a Super Cute couple for Engagements & then Later in the Day the Same Brides, Bridals! Well, Rain had other Plans, So Engagements were put off and Bridals were Still on, Only we did them Inside 2 Hotels! I want so Badly to show them off, But as any Photographer would do, I'll be waiting until the Wedding is over on the 30th,

So now that I'm over that part! :), Saturday Morning was Rainy, Cold & Wet. Corey went to the Church to help fix some things with others that were helping out, I stayed home with the Kids and Cleaned!

Later in the Day, He was home and I headed out! I had gotten to Little Rock at 4 for the Shoot, But the Brides Hair Stylist took a bit longer, Trust me No worries on this , I just headed to Cupcakes On Kavanaugh and Got some Goodies!




Yes, Its safe to say I love this place! It's becoming the NORM for me to make a pit stop there during my Trips to Little Rock! HA!

I finished up the Day with the Bridals and Headed home! They are AWESOME!!! Ill post a link to my Photography Blog once They are up! :)

Sunday March 27, 2011

We Got up Early and headed to Church! it was yet again a Great Day & Great Service, I loved Sunday School and I got to sit through service this Time! YAY! the past few times I have had to be in the Nursery! But nope. Not this Day, Our Son actually stayed in Nursery & did not cry not once, This is Odd, I blame it on the Awesome new toys and Slide the church bought for the kids to play on! He loves them!

Calleigh went Home with her Poppie & Lulu & cousin Joe to play for a bit, I took a Nap and Camp too, Corey, who is an Auxiliary Police Officer had to go and prisoner & Bring him back to prairie County!

W had church again that night, Sadly I missed out on this service as well! I had Nursery again! Well mainly B/C I chose to stay in with Camp this time! He had not had any Pain Medicine for his Hand and his blisters were about to Pop anytime. So I wanted to be sure and be there to Clean up his hand and Put on his Cream!

Keep in mind, Calleigh was Coughing ALL DAY!!!! pretty bad with a runny nose! But we blamed it on a Cold!

Monday, March 28, 2011

Camp woke Corey & I up in the middle of the night Wheezing and Breathing so badly that it scared us both! His new thing is to climb out of his bed in the middle of the night and come to our room & get in bed with us! We thought, "It's Late, Dark , He's scared and must be having a Panic attack" At least that is what we thought! His breathing was so heavy and scared us. We all finally fell back to sleep, Calleigh was up all night off & on as well coughing! :(

Morning came and She stayed home from School, Camp was breathing so heavily, I thought He would need a Breathing Treatment, Seeing where as both of our little ones are Prone to Congestion in the Fall & Spring!

Once I called in the Dr. appt for them both, Camp Threw up all over me! This would be the first of 6 times in the day! Poor Guy! I decided to make a Fast Run to Wal-Mart before the Doctor to grab a Few Groceries! Camp had only eaten some Fruit by this point, He had no appetite! Thinking we were in The Clear for Puking, He threw up all over the place in the check out line! I felt so bad for him!

My sassy and somewhat smart mouth daughter at times Tells me as we are walking out to the Car.....

" See Mom, I told you not to go in there, b/c he was going to throw up "


Trust me, It was not her only remark of the day, She too was not feeling well and not being cooperative at all, Ill save how Rude it sounded when she said it. She did get in trouble, But being a Mom, you don't want to hear that!!!! I do love her so much, But she seems to try and tell me what to do quite often. HA! guess its her age!!!

We get to the car, On our way and Camp Throws up again, This time the sprite I gave him, thinking it would help his tummy! Way Wrong, Needless to say, we were late to our appt. Once there, were in the waiting room and my daughter all the sudden completely changes into this very well behaved little girl and says.....

" I'm not scared of the Dr. Momma, I'm going to do all that they ask of me ."




Just a fill in, She has NEVER been good for the Dr. She has screamed, Yelled, Kicked and anything else you can think of when it was Dr. Time! For some reason once we were back this day, The nurse asked....

" Who is getting weighed first? "

Calleigh so eagerly says...

"Meeeeeeee" with a giggle! HA

She hops up and is weighed with no Problem at all... Weighing in at 44 1/2 lbs. pretty sure Pre-K's meals are adding some Pounds to my Princess.

The nurse then took her temperature and Calleigh says.....

" Oooo, That tickles!!!! " as she was laughing. HA

I'm am just in shock! I told the nurse,

" She looks like my daughter, but its not really her...." hahahahahah,

She weighed Camp, who is now 34lbs I think!

We got to the Room and the Dr. comes in and Camp Throws up all over me again! Really???? don't get me wrong, I love my son so much, But I'm pretty sure the nurses wanted to GAG as I walked by, I reeked of PUKE!!! I guess that is a Mommy for you! Of course I took it and just cleaned my little man up and held him tight! He was so sleepy!

Once again, the Dr. this time asks if Calleigh wants to go first since brother was not feeling well.

& Again My sooooo different of a daughter says...

" YESSSSSS "

He checked her Heart, Lungs, Ears (which we found out she has an ear infection :( ) , her throat and nose!!
She stood still and let him the entire time! I could not help but think of her 4 year check up with her last Dr. Where she pretty much lost it and was so bad the Dr. told me that it was not acceptable!!!! HA!

So now you see how diff. she is! anyways, Dr. appt. concluded that She has 1 Ear infection, Bad Cough and some Congestion, Camp had a Virus and Calleigh may get the same, He also had some congestion! So after a Long day gone, My counters now look like this.




However, this is the Burn Meds, Cough, Nausea Meds, and More! But yeah, Its been no fun!

Tuesday March 29, 2011

Calleigh skipped school again, Sick and Coughing, she was doing a little better, But I was just prepping myself for the Puke spell to come, But it never did, thank goodness. I am now all stopped up and have the sinus stuff going on! YUCK!!! I can't stand to have a sinus infection! We pretty much laid around all day long and rested....

Wednesday, March 30, 2011

I don't typically do the 'What I'm Loving Wednesday' that my friends do, Only b/c for some reason, My thing does not want to work right, But, Ill state, a few today...

  1. I'm Loving, that, My little girl was feeling well enough to go back to School today...
  2. I'm Loving, that My son is feeling Back to himself! not sick anymore at all! :)
  3. I'm Loving that It is not raining, I just really look forward to the sunshine and warm weather to be back... Come On Spring, I know you are there!
  4. I'm Loving, My lunch date with my sister and friends tomorrow
  5. I'm Loving that the school pictures I just got in of Calleigh are so great! She surprised me!
  6. I'm Loving that Kindergarten Registration was a Breeze!

Now, I'm one to explain, I'm sure you all know that by now! HaHa! I don't know where I get it from!!!!

But today I registered our little girl for Kindergarten Next year! Very easy it was, Guess the tougher part will be in May when she has to be tested! I'll have to pray she does well! I know she is so excited to begin Elementary School in the Fall!

As for me, I was a little sad, I'm sure if I am this way just getting her signed up, I will be once I drop her off the day of! I know she's been in Pre'K all year , But Something about sending your little one off to ACTUAL School that gets me! I'm thinking, b/c Now her actual school years begin, Pre-K is by choice here, Next will be Kindergarten Graduation, and so on! Breaks my heart, I sat in the room wondering If I had fast forwarded 5 years and didn't know it! I just wanted to rewind and push play to live it all over again! from her Birth to now!

It goes by Way to fast! :)

That's all for now! Just hoping to be better soon, I have a super Busy Weekend with 5 sessions, So You may not hear from me for a bit, But Be sure to look on my Blog for the Sessions! I have some Great ones coming up!

All the Best & God Bless,

Camp's Hand

Well, Little Man's First Blister opened today! Good & Bad,

Good b/c we are on the road to recovery for his precious fingers!, :) I can now apply the Cream that the Doctor gave us yesterday! However, I can not use the Burn Spray anymore to stop the Pain! So, He will be taking his Pain Med. Now until it stops completely! He still has Man more Blisters that need to be drained, But as the Doctor said, They have to on their own!

He's acting much better today! Playing & Running around as if nothing happened! I'm so thankful he is feeling okay!

He is stronger then his Momma, Im a Chicken and Would think my hand hurt until it was Fully healed! HA!!!

Thanks for the Prayers if you have said any! I sure love my little guys, Sweet hands!

All the Best & God Bless,

A Mommy's Worst Pain & a Play Date!

My little girl has been on Spring Break all week. Silly Me. We have been soaking it up at home!
Come Wed. I realized I had not taken her to do anything since She has been out! So not like me So here's a Re-Cap of the week in Short. Ha! I know you will want to read, b/c it really is short this time! Not a Book! :)

Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday! March 21, 22, 23, 2011

All spent at home! Ha. Except Monday, We did make it to the Park for a little while! Until Calleigh hurt her foot, then we were back at home. Playing outside was our fun! Wednesday Night, We made it to church! I will spend just a few extra lines here. It really got to me!

( Playing outside! They love the Dirt! )

( Little man in his Towel after Bath time! I just thought he was cute )

( I found Camp hiding under our Bed! This is his new hiding spot since it is high enough! )

My Father-In-Law talked about 'Preaching & Teaching' the Word of God! This was so on my heart here lately! I guess with what all is going on in Japan and Lybia! But, It really hit home this night!

He said that We as Christians need to be able to Preach what we do and Teach as well! Even though it seems easy to go out and minister the Word of God to some, Its not, For some reason there is something about it that becomes fearful! This is why I have always had a problem just talking about this!

He was sharing with us all on how it is up to us to make a Change! We need to know our stuff and know it well, B/C there will come a time where we are questioned and We have to be able to Back What we Say!, Well seems like another message to some, But to me it was more then that! He stated that We need to be ready for people being Angry at us for sharing the Word of God, Why? Because Not everyone is just going to completely agree with the Truth! Some may questions and some may just say 'Stop Talking'. I don't really know! I do know that the time is drawing near where this is becoming more visible in my eyes! If that makes sense..

he said how, We may not be liked by our Friends, or Family, and to know that God is working, But we have to have Faith!

anyways, It just really hit home, I have so many I worry about at times and I know that it is not fully how God Would see it! I am in no place to judge, But I can see Wrong when I see it and I know it when I hear it! So its on my heart to preach the Truth to those that are lost or may think they have it right!, I am a christian and I love my friends & family, But I love my God more and if he says to talk, I have to Obey!

I dont want to see anyone in the wrong when the day comes to be judged! :)

Okay, on to Thursday, March 24, 2011

We actually got out! HA!

We had another play date at a friends house up town! Lots of friends and kids were there to play! we stayed for a while and then headed to Ginger's House! My friend! :) She lives away from us and doesn't really get us for visitors much so My Sister-In-Law headed to have a chat!

( Calleigh & her friend at the Play Date! )

( Camper Man at the Play Date! He loves Cheetos, Im sure you can see! )

We had a good time looking at blogs and Deleted scenes from the Bachelor! Yes I know we are goofy!, it's what we do!

Friday, March 25, 2011

Started off Good, I got up, kids too, I made a cheese Ball and began getting ready for another play date! Well it all went down fast, B/C Camp, Burnt his hand on my Curling Iron! :(, Oh it was so awful!

It broke my heart to hear him Cry the way he did, and I tried so badly to take care of him, But, I must say, The Worst Mommy Pain is knowing your baby is hurting and you can't make it better!

Quickly we finished getting ready and headed for the Drug Store, I had to get some Burn Relief for the little guy! by now his hand was Swollen and Blistered! I sprayed his hand good with it and he began to Calm down! Woo, Thanks for the Burn Spray!

I took him to the Doctor, She said, It is not as bad as it looks and he will be fine. She gave him a Pain Med, and a Cream to apply once his Blisters open! :(

( Waiting to see the Doctor )

( His poor little Bubbly hand ) :(

This kid keeps my on my toes! I never know what he is about to do next! I just kept thinking,

"Why did I not move that thing?"

I just get upset if I think it too much! Needless to say, I'm a mom & I do not want my kids in pain!

We skipped the play date, We were sad, But we got out of the Doctor's office late and Camp was so tired from all of the crying, So we just grabbed a fast bite to eat with my mom!

Once home later , The kids and I went to a purse party, I bought a new Bag for Camp's things and a Tote to put all of my files for my photography clients in and a super cute portfolio to keep my planner and business cards in! I'm super excited!

I hope you all have a GREAT weekend! I have two sessions unless the Rain say's other wise!

All the Best & God Bless,

A Beautiful Weekend!

This weekend was just AMAZING!

God is so Great! I have to say. Watching the Weather Change from Cold to Warm, Seeing the Flowers Bloom, the Trees sprout new leaves, and Grass turn Green reminds me just how Awesome Our God really is!

This Whole weekend I had been thinking about how greatly blessed we are to be able to enjoy every bit of it!

Once the Earthquake in Japan, its been on my heart just how much we have to be thankful for! Way to much if you ask me! We have it made here and yet so many of us still complain. Ill be the first to admit, I'm no saint in this area! We all have our days!

Just watching how awesome it is outside is just a Fresh Reminder to be thankful! God Created EVERY BIT OF IT! it's just an awesome thing to take in! :)

So thats a little of my heart this weekend!

Okay,

Saturday, March 19, 2011

We Got up Early and went strait for Wal-Mart, I will be the first to admit it, I have an AWESOME Husband. He goes Grocery Shopping with me! HA!, But, He is an early bird. So his shopping consist of no Showers, Jump out of bed, throw on Clothes and Go!

He's ready to get there and get back. In fact, He's so great at doing the shopping he would rather leave us home & Go by himself to get it all! Haha~!

Well, we got there, and headed in. It wasn't so busy, But once it did start getting a little faster, The kids were getting impatient and starting to complain,

  • Camp is pulling anything off the shelf he can find,
  • Calleigh is constantly begging to go Pee, Even though she didn't need to, She just loves going to the bathroom in the back with the little sink her size. Haha
  • Camp begs and screams to get down,
  • Calleigh keeps asking for things off of the Shelf,
  • Camp is trying to smash the loaf of bread in the buggy
  • Calleigh starts complaining that her feet are Quote, "killing her" B/C she thinks she's been on them to long! LOL Really???
  • Camp then goes into Tired Mode. Hes Crying like crazy,

Annnnnnddddd

all the while, Corey's Face says it all!

I could not stop laughing, Well, I wanted to, But didn't, He would have been upset with me. at the moment that is! haha,

I could not help but think how much he was stressing me out more then the kids with all of his yelling at them and much more! Now, don't get me wrong, I am the first to Discipline in Public if he is not with me! there is nothing more frustrating then the kids in bad moods and having attitudes in public,

I just thought it was so cute at how easily he was upset, and he sometimes does not know how much more I take on by myself in the Grocery Store! haha! Gotta love the hubb's & the kids,

It's things like this that I leave that Store thinking, I'm so blessed! I have a great life, Wonderful Man and two Super cute adorable, still my heart daily kids! :)


Later in the day, I went to a wedding with my sister-in-law, It was so cute! simple and so Springy. I loved the songs , I got some cute idea's for Wedding Slide Shows for my upcoming weddings! You should check out my photography Blog! :)

(Ill admit, I used to take pics of myself! Ha, But who doesn't? anyways this hardly ever happens anymore, Im way to busy with the kids, But I just like how may hair and make up turned out)

(Leah & I at the wedding)

(Me, Adam, My brother-in-laws, Girlfriend Katelyn, & Leah)


After the wedding is over, 'Keep in mind, Leah & I went without kids', We go to the front of the church so that she could look at the back of flower arrangements! Inside Note, She decorates for weddings.

Once we are up there, I'm talking to the Groom's Sister about her upcoming Baby due in 5 weeks! I go on to tell her that I had forgotten she was pregnant b/c I hardly ever see her! I could not believe that 35 weeks had already went by! While telling her I had forgotten, I went on to say,

" Well dont feel bad, I have been so busy, that I have missed out on alot of things "

Now, another Inside Note, The Bride's name was Joanie Ferguson. So maybe you can figure out why this came out of my Mouth next!


I'm talking to the Groom's sister and after I'm done telling her I had forgotten she was pregnant, I then say,

" Well, I didn't even Know that Daniel & Fergie were engaged ".......

Really???

What was I thinking, She, Leah & I just busted out laughing. I guess i had gotten 'Ferguson' & the 'ie' part of her first name totally twisted!. I was so embarrassed!


That was not my only OOOPSIE for the night, I had many, Leah told me that She thinks, Im so used to Functioning with Kids around that My Brain does not know how to function without them! :) She makes me laugh!

Sunday, March 20, 2011


We Matched on this day! haha. Not planned, But I'm sure you all think, "Yeah, sure, whatever Candace" Well truth be told, I do like to Match, and Corey, Like every other MAN on earth can't stand it! Why is it, us women like to match? LOL, Beats me, But it's fun!

Corey got up first, I was still asleep, I never paid attention to his outfit!, But once I got the kids clothes, I picked out outfits, that their 'Lulu' had bought them which were Navy Blue, once they were bathed and clothed, Calleigh says,

"Hey, Look at that, Were matching Dad"

She makes me laugh, I said, Yep, I guess your right.

So, What does Every woman do while the moment is present? We dress to match too! haha,

I put on my Navy Blue Shirt and White Linen Pants! Yes, I know your laughing by now! Corey however was not! haha!

Before leaving for church I had him take a picture of me & the kids. We used to do this all the time with Me & Calleigh before church and then Calleigh & Corey, I guess we are so busy, We got out of the habit! Here are a couple to show!



(Of course I played and edited! after all, that's what I do!)

(She had to have a picture with her doll)


Once at church, I had his Mom take some pics of us 4. I'm sure you can see where Corey is not to thrilled about it! HA!. But he took them. B/C he is great!

(Corey's face cracks me up)


We headed to Sunday school afterwards,

I loved this lesson for some reason! We talked about how things that happen now, are a part of making us realize how busy we get in life & don't focus as much on the Lord as we should! I was sharing with them how, since the Earthquake in Japan, I have felt like the Lord has kinda woke me up and made me think...

here have been some of my thoughts:

  • I thought I knew I am going to Heaven when I die, But Am I really?
  • I'm pretty sure, I'm a christian, But, Do I really portray the image of a Christian as I should?
  • Am I teaching my Children the Word of the Lord as much as I need to be?
  • Am I a good influence on my friends and family?
  • Do I talk to others about Jesus as much as I should?

I have had more, But these are the ones that have really been on my heart! I think that When things like this happen, It is just One Step Closer to the End times and Jesus Returning! I don't know about you, But I want to be Ready and Told

"Well done, good & faithful Servant"

But, Our class was really good this day!

Once in Worship service, I could just sense the Holy Spirit in our Church! It is such an Amazing Feeling! Here are some feelings, that I sense when I feel the Holy Spirit.

  • Peace
  • Love
  • Refreshed
  • Reassured of the Love of Christ
  • Faith
  • Trusting Heart

I love feeling every bit of these! We sang to the Lord and Worshiped him and had a great time doing it!

Calleigh jumped up for me to hold her and I began to Pray in her ear for her to be a Great girl as she grew up and a Lover of Jesus! I love how she just clings to my Neck and here's every bit of it! It is such a privilege to share such things with our children!

Corey & I had nursery during service so sadly we missed out on the Message, But we did have a good time with all of the kids! I love watching them all! Just so cute!

Here are some pics of Camp and Greenleigh, A family Friend's little girl!



(Camp playing with the Toy Phone! I just love his Smile here!)

Once home, We ate lunch, Calleigh had a friend over to play, It was nice outside, We all played outside & Enjoyed the weather!

Corey sprayed the Yard to kill all the Weeds, My yard should be dying soon! :( but the New Fresh Green will be coming through soon! I'm Excited about a nicer looking yard for sure!

Later in the day, Once calleigh's friend went home, We headed out on the Big Red, Me, Corey & the kids! I just love days like this, We drove around all over the Farm, Saw some snakes, YIKES! not my favorite site!, But the weather was Great, the sun was shining and we were having Family Time! My Favorite!

one of my favorite Quotes from Corey that day,

" I really like spending time with yall like this "

I love him so much!

(Me & Camp riding, Calleigh didn't want in the picture! :()

Monday, March 21, 2011

Today marks the First day of Spring & Spring Break! haha, I wonder if the schools planned it that way? LOL!

Well, Calleigh started off by riding the tractor with her daddy! I love this picture of them. walking to the tractor!

I cleaned the house! always fun, and then later I took the kids for Ice Cream and Park time! It was yet again such a pretty day!

Once home, we played more outside and then rested the rest of the night! I'm Enjoying this week with my little girl home! She's always gone to school, So it's nice to hear her and Camp playing through out the day!

All the Best & God Bless,

A Little, I mean ALOT of Catching up!

As I said in my Last Post, I am a little out of order this time around! I did my last post yesterday and dedicated it to a sweet little girl in Heaven, Maddie! Check it out if you haven't already.

However. I need to Go Back to Last Friday! Ha!

Friday, March 11, 2011


So after having such a LONG Day in Little Rock with my sister-in-law and all 4 of our kids, We did Nothing on Friday, Well, I say noting, I Cleaned, Calleigh was back at School and Corey on the Farm! My little helper had fun Windexing the Mirrors with my (Pledge) haha.



Here is a little Sneak Peak of Our new Bed! I still have a few more things to add to it! But just a little peak! :)






Saturday, March 12, 2011

Leah & I put on a Yard Sale! Our last one was over 5 years ago! We had tons of things to get rid of! We did pretty good! I was excited. We still have plenty left and May do another one.

After This was all over, My Mom & her Husband came over for a few minutes to Visit! They had bought some Bar Stools from Leah! Once they were gone we relaxed for a little while. I Got my Premiere Jewelry in the Mail! Which means, I got my New Watch! I love it!



Later on in the Day, Corey Wanted to eat at Dondies. So we loaded up and went! It was good of course!



Sunday, March 13, 2011


Church was good! From what I heard, I was in the Nursery with Camp and all of the other little ones! I love Nursery, But I Really Love Service! Something about hearing God's Word at the End of the Week! Refreshes me for The upcoming week! :)

Corey started liking these Yummy Chicken, Salsa & Cheese Quasdilia (however you spell it) that Leah's mom taught me how to make! They were good, So they were our Dinner!



Monday, March 14, 2011


I woke up to this sweet Face in our Bed! He never sleeps with us. But he had a rough night, So we let him in!



Once Corey was off to work and Calleigh was off to school, I ran Camp over to his ENT Appointment. Thankfully the Dr. said that His Ears look GREAT!!! No Infections. Yay!

Afterwards, He & I headed to Aunt Elecia's house, then to drop off a Pack-N-Play I sold from the Yard Sale, Then we met up with Grannah for Lunch! Camp was all over the place, He ate his food good first then he headed for the Floor, No more chair for him! He was ready to Play!

Up on the Table with Aunt Elecia holding him, Hiding from Grannah so she wont see him Chewing the Gum She gave him! He's a cutie!







After Lunch, I made a fast run to Wal-Mart. Grabbed some Goodies for our Bachelor Finale at Leah's later that night! Ha!!!!

Once Back in town, I picked up Calleigh, We headed home and then got ready. Ginger came over early We got the kids ready and made our way to Leah's...

So we are so silly,But, If you were an 'Emily Fan' then you will understand our silliness! haha...

We invited several friends, But No one was able to make it, Soooo. That left. Me, Leah, Ginger, and Leah's husband! Ha! Yes he was into this as well!




We had so much fun. We had some Yummy Food, and Laughed and was tensed up at the same time! Crazy I know! But This season was so good for some reason... Oh. I know why, B/C of 'Emily'. Ha! I had to capture what Ginger's expression Meant! LOL..... Im sure you will get a good Laugh!



(Emily Making Sure Brad
Know's what he is in for)



(Ginger stressing B/C she was worried 'E' was messing up her chance)




(Chicken Salad Sandwiches)


(Super good 'E' Cheese Ball)


We were happy once That Final Rose was given to 'Sweet Emily'!! It was a fun night!



Tuesday, March 15, 2011

This was a Fun day. Calleigh was at school Corey at Work and Me Cleaning again! haha. Who would have thought! Sometimes I wish I had a 'Bewitched' Nose so I can give Twitch and WABAM!!! it all be Clean! Unfortunately, Not So!

After This was over, I headed to pick up Ginger and head to Little Rock to get Mine & Corey's Dresser that had come in! Oh how exciting...

But, Before we get to that, Lets Re-Cap on our Short 'Crazy' meeting with the Early Saint Patty's Day Gas Station Man!....

I head to get gas and Ginger is with Camp in the truck. I walk in the Store and Bam.... Awkward already!, A man Wearing Bright GREEN.. Shirt and Hat with a Shamrock on it is hugging the Cashier! I just assumed they were married and he was popping in to say hi!

NO, not the case. (this part is sad) I guess she was having some personal issues that he too had once been through, He was giving her a hug and telling her it will get better! I was feeling bad for the situation, while holding my money and still waiting to Pre-Pay, When all of the sudden The
'Green Man' Touches my arm and says:

"How old are you Darlin?"

I'm so dumb. I actually answered with:

"25"

He then replies with while giggling:

"Woooooahhh, My dad is married to a girl your age, Yep he's an Old one. Shes you age! I hope I dont end up like him, On my Third Marriage and her being your age"

I felt bad that His dad's marriages had not worked out before and just simply said back with a sad tone of:

"Oh No, Im sorry"

Then the Cashier who was not saying a word randomly throws up her hands in the air and Waves them around and says:

"Wooooooaaahhh, ohhhhhhh Noooooo!!!!"

Yes, I'm sure by now, you can sense I was ready to leave the store. SO I did...

I get out to the truck and get the Pump going, and look into the truck at ginger and ask her with a laugh:

" Have you ever just walked in on an awkward situation and you dont know what to do?"

She says yes and I go on to explain what had just happened... When all the sudden she tells me to hush, b/c he was right behind me walking out of the Store! SO I zipped it when out of no where.......

The 'Happy Man in Green' pokes his head around the Gas Pump and says:

"Peek-A-Boo"

REALLY???? I then hear Ginger say from the Truck out loud while laughing:

" Ohhhhhhh Myyyyyy"

The 'Happy Man in Green' the says:

" Well, Darlin, I didn't know you drove a truck.... & what a nice Truck it is"

Keep in mind, hes Country as can be, and is dressed So not Country. LOL.... and acting odd....

He then goes on to tell me and ginger that he's going to Hot Springs this weekend to Celebrate his Anniversary with his Wife!

I then say:

"Awe, Well Happy Early Anniversary"

and BAMMMMM!!!!

He starts Dancing on the Gas Pump singing:

" To the Windows, To the Walls....."

and twisting his legs and jumping up & down...

Then I hear Ginger Say out loud from the Truck once again:

"OHHHHHH MYYYYY GOOOOOODNESS!!!!!:

"Seriously???"

He then goes on to leave and I'm frantically waiting for my Gas amount to reach the $40 mark so I can Go... He walks off and yells to Camp,

" ahhhhhhh, Don't mind me son, I'm just a Ladies Man!"

Sorry, Sir, But No! Ginger and I could not stop laughing! Not to mention, He told Ginger Happy Saint Pattys Day, She looked at him thinking, "It's not Saint Patrick's Day". I think He got what she was thinking and then said with all of his GREEN on....

"I mean, I know its a few days away still, But I'm in the Holiday Spirit"

So now you know how our So Simple of a stop for gas trips go! Yes Very Weird to say the least. He gave us a Laugh for the Rest of the day!

We then made it to Haverty's and Picked up Our Dresser! So excited.... Here's the Display Pic!

Camp and Calleigh did however! , We started off the Day with a walk, and ran into this sweet face while they were out for a walk to!!! Makes me happy!





They take walks every now & then when it is nice out!

We had a Play Date!

Alot of us Girls that had kids headed to one of our Friends house and had a Play date. We had yummy food and Tons of KIDS!!! Wouldn't have it any other Way! :) Kids make it all worth while. I had fun Catching up with kelcie and Carrie! Two Family Members! Camp Kept falling. I think he was a little tired! haha....



( Me & Miss Ella )




( 3 sweet boys at play date )







Once we left, Carrie, Ella, Kelcie, Eden & Camp & I headed to Nana & Papas to visit! it was nice to let Ella, Eden & Camp play! They are all three such Cute cousins!

I then Picked up Calleigh and went home!

Later, I made some yummy Baked Spaghetti Casserole!!!! While making it, I discovered Camp's new found LOVE for Cracker Jacks! LOL... he could not keep his hands out of the bag!!! It was cute!




Corey then saw where Calleigh spilled and Crunched Cracker Jacks in the Carpet. So to punish her, I made her Vacuum the Floor! Unfortunately with my luck, She LOVED Vacuuming..... I could not get her to stop! Im sure the pics will Show!,,







While she was Vacuuming. Camp found the Animal Crackers and Dumped them all over the floor.... So. Calleigh headed to his rescue... HA. I had to stop her. I then gave him a Zip Lock Bag and made him clean up his mess.....




I think it's safe to say, He loves the Animal Crackers too!




We ate this yummy meal & then headed out to play some more before dark!




Calleigh kept yelling at the flys that were coming out! This will explain her odd expressions on her face!



Camp as usual wanted his Car!






Bath time later and NOW as they SLEEP,,, I'm catching up on my Movie of a life!!!! I have to get better at this.....

Looking forward to a GREAT weekend!!!!
