Baby Shower Breakfast

My good friend Stacy is about to have her second

baby, so I wanted to have a small shower for

her with just her closest friends. So I decided to have

breakfast at the Hilton. It was nice and simple.

Hope she enjoyed it. Can't wait to meet her baby girl!!

Alexis, Me Beth, Stacy

Girly pink balloons

Not so little any more

I can't believe how fast Lola is growing.

She has changed a lot.

But she's still my little baby!!

Being Silly with my BFF

While my friend Cali was here visiting we had such a good time

together. We were so silly and laughed a ton. We also did some shopping,

got massages and pedicures. We went to Chattanooga, Helen and ate

at some yummy places. We made homemade bread and

made friends with our GPS voice (we named her Judy)

It was a great visit, I was sad to see her go home.

Here are some pictures of us modeling some

beautiful hats!

Cabbage Patch Kids

So Cali and I are children of the 80's and

have fond memories of playing with our

Cabbage Patch kids. So we figured that since

we were going to north Georgia we

would stop off at the Babyland General Hospital.

This place was crazy. It's set up like a real

hospital when you first walk in with women dressed

up as real nurses, and in the back

a giant toy store.

Playing Nurse

This is a picture of the"live birth"

of a cabbage patch kid coming out of a cabbage.

It was hilarious. She used terms like

"c" section aka cabbage section, and that it was

dilated to 10 leaves and if any of the fathers

were feeling queasy they could go out to the waiting area.

One of the kids got to name it.

The whole thing was cute and a little creepy!!

Helen GA

Cali and I went up to Helen but we didn't stay

long cause it so cold and rainy. But of course we

did hit the Hansel and Gretel chocolate factory!

Still waiting for our Mr. Rights!

Chattanooga

My friend Cali came to visit from Utah and we headed

up to Chattanooga for a day. We first went to Lookout Mountain

and had planned to go to Rock City where you can lookout

and see seven states, and then to see Ruby Falls.

But it was a cloudy day so the

visibility was bad so we just did Ruby Falls.

Ruby Falls is an underground waterfall. So

we went down in an elevator and walk about 30 mins back

to the falls. It was very cold outside but a warm 60 degrees

underground.

Freezing cold!

This is in the underground cave that we walked through

This is Ruby Falls, It was so amazing.

These are good pictures but still don't do

it justice. I highly recommend seeing this

in person sometime. It's beautiful!!

Snow Shovel

It snowed here the other day and on top of that it

iced over, so I was stuck in the house from Sunday night

until Wednesday afternoon. By Tuesday morning I was starting

to have a little cabin fever. Even though I had no where to go

I wanted to feel like I had the option, so I bundled

up and went out to shovel the driveway.

The problem was that I don't own a snow shovel and the

only shovel I do own is about 3 inches in width

(which would have taken forever to clear with)

So I got creative and decided to use the lid from

one of my storage containers.

It worked pretty good too!

I was able to squat, scoop and toss the snow

enough for a path that the car could fit down.

The next day my butt and arms were so sore

from all that squatting, scooping and tossing!!

But I was able to make it out and back in more importantly

the next day when I went out to join the rest of society again.
