Adam's Class Reunion

Last Saturday I went with Adam to his 10 year class reunion. He graduated from Ingomar, which is about 10 minutes from New Albany. It was at Woody's here in Tupelo. I really enjoyed getting to meet some of his friends from his high school days. We had fun and Adam really enjoyed geting to see people he has not seen in years. 

Amanda's Going Away Party

Friends

Last Friday night at Sarah's house we had a going away party for the McRae's. For those of you who might look at this and not know my really close friend Amanda and her family are moving at the end of the month. Graci and I are going to miss them very much. I honestly do not know what I would have done these past couple of years without Amanda's friendship and encouragement everyday. We love you McRae's and are so glad that you are getting house that will have plenty of room for us to come and visit. Now that I just looked at my pictures I do not have one picture of me and Amanda form that night...not sure how that happen.

Coach and Graci

Thursday night last week Graci was so tired she had not had a nap that day and wanted Coach to read her a story. He probably didn't get even half way through Skippy John Jones before Graci was out for the count. She had sweet dreams that night...thank you Coach.

Bible School and Some Fun

Last week was one of the busiest weeks for Graci and I. Graci had our churches Bible school everyday last week, I had school every morning in Oxford and had to be there by 8:45, Annie had a cook out for her Wednesday night class, and Graci had a friend come over Thursday afternoon after Bible school. Needless to say it was a great week but I was so glad when it was over. Thank you Annie for taking her everyday so that I could go to school.

2hrs of Swimming

Before....
After...

I have not been able to update my blog foe awhile because I did not have a USB cord for my camera, that I bought from Sarah. So thank you Sarah for the camera and Pop for finding a USB cord. Two weeks ago I took Graci swimming at a family in our churches house. My really good friend Marty and her husband were house sitting and were very sweet to share there pool that they had for a week with Graci and me. We got to the pool around 11 and Graci swam the whole time with the exception of 2 snack breaks. I have come to the conclusion that my daughter is not afraid of much. She would have jumped off the diving board into the deep-in if I would have let her. We had fun, Graci loved it and by 1:00 it was time to go.

Weekend with "Peri and G"

I would just like to say that Graci is very blessed to have Aunts and Uncles that love her very much. We love you Peri and G and Kyle and Gabby. For 3 years Graci has been the only grandchild and niece in the family...can we say spoiled. Things are going to change in December when Gabby and Kyle welcome baby benson into the family. We are all so excited but not sure how Graci is going to take not having the spotlight all on her. About 2 weekends ago Graci went a spent the night in Memphis with her Aunt Peri and Uncle G. This was a big deal...she was so excited and did not seem to care that I was not going. Sweet Aunt Peri had the whole weekend planned: waterpark, buy a new movie, feeding the ducks, and going to the Memphis Children's Museum. Thank you Uncle G and Aunt Peri, Graci had a blast.

Well, finally I have got the hang of posting things (Its only taken me about 3 weeks to figure this out) I will begin to update friends and family on what is going on with Graci and I. Almost a month ago Coach (that is what Graci calls Adam) and I took Graci to the Memphis Zoo. She had a blast. I only have one picture to post because still living in the dark-ages I don't have a digital camera. I borrowed my Dads and I only able to take 1 pic before it died. Thank you Coach for taking the day off...we had fun!

About Us

April 23, 2005 Graci entered my life and my life changed. Graci is 3 years old and full of personalty. For those of you who might not know Graci was born at 27 weeks. She weight 2lbs and 0.7oz. You would never believe she was a preemie unless you saw a pictures of her when she was born. You know, Its funny to think that we might have our lives so planned out and then low- and- behold God has another plan in store. I am very blessed and thankful that God brought Graci into my life. I love you Graci.
