A Wonderfully Busy Weekend

This weekend was extremely busy but lots of fun. On Friday night Kelli, Jennifer, Katie and I went shopping for our Angel tree child. We ate a yummy dinner at PF Changs, where they have the most wonderful Chicken Quesadillas (all though it says on the menu don't call them that)! After dinner we proceeded to shop, shop,and shop! We kept Kelli out way past her bedtime! When I came home I had a surprise waiting for me from my two guys:
They got me this rose to celebrate finding out we are having a girl! It was so sweet of them! Then Jennifer and Katie stayed over to watch the ultrasound of our baby girl. Afterwards we got a little chatty(that never happens!) and before we knew it they were leaving my house at 1:00!

Needless to say I was tired Saturday morning. But our busy weekend continued. We traveled to my mom's hometown to see my Grammie in the Christmas parade! She was the Grand Marshall of the parade! It was lots of fun and my Grammie looked beautiful! Allen, Peyton and I stayed the night with her and enjoyed being spoiled. Saturday night she made homemade chicken salad and salmon stew (which she attempted to teach me to make but after not knowing what a double boiler is I think she gave up!). Sunday morning I woke up to bacon frying and a breakfast of eggs, grits and toast. Then we went to church with her and enjoyed lunch with my Uncle, Aunt and cousins. It was a wonderful weekend and we enjoyed visiting.

Sunday afternoon we came back so I would have time to make something to take to our Sunday school party that night. However, we weren't counting on getting stuck in a Christmas parade for 40 minutes! So.. Publix once again came to the rescue and we made it home just in time to have a great night of fellowship with our Sunday school class. It was such a busy weekend but we got to spend it with our family and friends so all the rushing around was worth it! Now we are counting down the days until Christmas break!YIPPEE!

I know I was going to bring you some Wednesday night but caught the funk and figured you wouldn't want me cooking you anything!
