Mother's Day Weekend

Drew and I had a fabulous mother's day weekend!  We got down to Drew's family's beach house on Ochlocknee Bay in the wee hours of Saturday morning.  John Andrew and Kay were waiting up for us and we all watched the House Sine Die and went to bed.

Saturday we went on a fishing trip to the South Sholes.

That evening we celebrated Kay's Birthday with a great fish fry!!  Kay even broil some mackerel which was my favorite and Mary Carlton made a brownie cake. 
Yummy Food

Thanks Shannon & Shafer!


Sunday morning we all woke up to a wonderful Mother's Day Brunch cooked by John Andrew!! Then Kay and Andra Kay opened presents.



After brunch it was so beautiful outside that we went for a boat ride.

That evening we took my mom out to dinner for Mother's Day!  We had a wonderful meal at the Melting Pot! On the way to dinner we stopped off at Roselawn and left a flower for Nanny.  We know she was looking down on us and knows how much we miss her.  Happy Mother's Day Nanny!

 Tonight we are celebrating Mother's Day with Kathy and Bridget. 

Thank you mom's for being such wonderful, caring people!  We are so lucky to have you in our lives!

Love you all!

Session is over......what a relief!!!

This year I suprised Drew with an end of session present (which he claims other husbands and wives do):

For as much as this boy is outside, he has never had a nice pair of sunglasses.  So I bought him a pair of Maui Jim's and he was thrilled.  I'm so happy that he is enjoying them.

Glad you made it through another year baby!  I love you!!

Spring Birthday's

The past two weeks have been filled with birthday's galore and I have been very lazy with taking pictures so please forgive me.

Last week we started off our list of birthday's with our dear friend Teresa Dennis. Her birthday was April 25 and we were unable to celebrate at dinner with she and Steven due to a baseball game.  Next up is my cousin Christian.  His birthday is April 26 and he lives in Washington DC so we left the celebrating up to his wife Carla!  Third on the list is another cousin of mine, Kevin.  Drew and I took Kevin out to Barnaby's and had the best time!  What is better than great pizza and good company!  The next birthday boy is Uncle Doug.  His birthday is April 28 and he was off celebrating his birthday in France with the Sister's (Aunt Karen, Aunt Kathy and My Mom)! 

During the week of birthday I spent one evening at Sara Britton and Matty J's house.  I had the best time with Allie Boone.  She is so sweet!





The final birthday of the week was Jason Mork, who is a good friend of Drew's and now mine!  His lovely wife Shelia threw a surprise (or not so much) party at their house.  We had such a great time!  Tons of friends, food and bocce ball.  Saturday before the party Drew, Jason and Jason Hart play golf at Summer Brooke. 

Now this leads me into this week, Monday, May 2, 2011 was my best friend Fran's birthday!  We celebrated with all of her friends at Mockingbird Cafe.  It was a fabulous evening!

The rest of the week was pretty laid back.  Drew has been working late nights so I decided to have dinner ready for him when he got home and we ate dinner outside on the deck.  The weather was perfect!  We also use one of our wedding gifts for the first time.....Thank you Betts's Family!!!

The next night we had my mom over for a Mexican Fiesta to celebrate Cinco de Mayo! 



We are so fortunate to have such great friends and family!  Happy Birthday to everyone!

Have a great Mother's Day Weekend!
