A Full Weekend!

Well we had a full weekend last weekend! Friday I went to Grenada with Josh, took him to work, then went to run some errands. I met Momma at Wal-Mart to pick up the boys. They had been in Memphis for a few days. We took them to ball practice that evening then went to the auction after that. Then Saturday the boys and I went back to Grenada with Josh where he dropped us off at my grandmother's on his way to work. We spent the day with her and ran some more errands while getting ready for my cousin's 17th birthday party. Danielle is going to be 17 Thursday...I just can't believe it! I will add some pics to this post that were taken at her party! We got home then went to my Aunt and Uncle's house to help my Aunt prepare for the party. We had a great time at the party. We grilled hamburgers and had rotel dip...yummy! Then of course we had cake and she opened her gifts. We spent the rest of the afternoon just enjoying the great weather! The boys went outside and played ball....football & baseball....if it's a ball my kids love it! They had a great time. We stayed outside until just after dark when the "skeeters" as we call them here in Mississippi started biting. We got home around 10 or so and we were beat! After church Sunday, Mimi (my grandmother) cooked lunch so we went over there and ate. Oh, it was so good. Chicken w/ chicken gravy baked in the oven, turnip greens, corn, mashed potatoes, butter peas, cornbread, and crescent rolls! It was wonderful!!!!! Then after eating we went outside AGAIN and watched as the boys...young and older played ball! then they brought out the 4-wheeler. Candace rode the boys around and while riding ran up on a snake! It was just a rat snake but still to me, a snake is a snake! My uncle killed it and of course had to bring it up to the house to show it off. YUK! We finally left there around 4 I guess and rested for the remainder of the day! Needless to say we were very tired Monday morning! I love all that family time though! There is nothing better than having all the family together to play games and just have a lot of fun! We should do it more often!
