Visit with the McRaes & Supper with Sheena & Jarod

Yesterday was a busy day but a great one. Sarah and her 2 kids picked Graci and I up at 7:30 yesterday morning for a fun road trip to visit or good friends the McRaes whom live in the BIG town of Winona. We did not leave Tupelo without a GRANDE white chocolate mocha from the best place ever....Starbucks (thank Adam for your gift cards you gave me). We arrived at Amanda's new house around 10. I will say that there is not much to Winona but the town is full of beautiful old houses and Amanda's house is one of these beautiful houses. It is very old but it has so much character about and the McRaes have added their on touches to it and have made even more beautiful. The kids have not seen each other in over a month that as soon as we walked in Graci and Janey Beth tackled each other on the bed with the biggest hugs ever. Like always Collins was the only boy but he is always such a trooper. It was so refreshing to get to see our friends, let the kids play and catch up on what is going on in each others little lives. Thank you McRae's for letting us invade your house for a day. We had so mcug fun and can't wait to visit again.
We got home from Winona around 5 and Adam and I went out to eat with my newly engaged friends Sheena and Jarod. Jarod has been serving in Iraq since last November. Sheena is my dearest friend who got the best surprise ever when Jarod came home 2 Fridays ago. Her dream came true...Jarod got off his long plane ride and in the middle of the airport proposed. Sheena has been on cloud 9 ever since. Since Jarod has been away the 4 of us have not been able to go out to eat and so this was the perfect time. We ate at Boondocks Grill and shared lots of laughs and had a great time. Jarod will be going back to Iraq next Wednesday and will serve until his leave at the end of November. Please keep him in your prayers as he is serving our Country and his sweet bride to be as she will be anticipating his arrival home. Love you bunches Sheena and Jarod.
