Lights OUT! It's Thanksgiving!



















First - the reason we are wearing name tags is because we were meeting Susie's family for the first time. Now we get to Big Dad and Susie's house and the lights are off. That was at 3 p.m. There was no bad weather - they have underground cables - so we thought that it would be up in a matter of minutes - no worries. An hour later and no electricity and people were to be arriving at any minute! Because Susan (Trey's aunt) lives around the corner -they took the turkey over there and luckily they had most everything ready. John (Trey's uncle) ended up bringing over a generator. It made for a very interesting evening! It was so fun seeing all of Trey's aunts, uncles and cousins! It was nice to meet Susie's family too. Trey entertained us singing "Born in the USA!" He was hilarious. And since there was no form of entertainment - Bekah and Nate stepped up to the plate!! They put on a great show! The food ended up being great and it was a lot of fun - certainly a Thanksgiving to remember for a long time! Only sad part - JJ and Becca weren't there!! We missed them so much! Oh well, only a few more weeks til Christmas!

Santa pics!






Nate did not want anything to do with Santa this year - I was pretty much expecting that - but I still had some hope! We all met at Sweet Dreams to have the kids' photos taken - Haley, Liv and Nate - did not like Santa at all!! So after they had to go through that torture - we tried to get everybody to look at the camera - of course it didn't work - but they turned out cute anyway!! :)
TwiLight NIGHT!!!
























So this was the night we were all waiting for - TWILIGHT night! Sixteen of us went to the movie Friday night. I got there WAY before I needed to and waited for the girls to arrive. Emily Hopkins drove in from Memphis with her friend Laurie. I don't know if you remember or not but about a month ago - it was at Renee's birthday party was at Bonefish. I happened to have just started reading the Twilight series thanks to Kellye. Well, Kellye was out of town and I had NOBODY to talk to about it. I felt like I was losing my mind because I could NOT put the book down. I was on the second book and we had just finished eating and I looked at Joanne to ask her if she had read the Twilight series - she said no but Emily had - It was sooooooooooooooooooooo funny! I started screaming and so did she! SOOO we had mentioned that she should come in town for the opening night! In the meantime - Kellye got back from her trip and we couldn't stop talking about the books! THEN I got Jana and Patrice to read them! And even RENEE started reading them. So Emily decided to come to Jackson Friday night and we gathered a group of people together to go and see the movie - many of the girls who were at Renee's bday party went along with some of my friends! We had a blast!! The group kept getting bigger and bigger! It was a lot of FUN!! We acted like fools - like teenagers at the movie! I told Trey that we went early to the movie to see all the freaks and we ended up being the FREAK SHOW! Kellye, Emily and I wore tshirts! We were definitely in the spirit! IT WAS A BLAST!! THANK YOU GIRLS FOR MAKING THE NIGHT SO MUCH FUN!! and thank you Trey for putting up with my craziness!!
