Song of the South

Here's a glimpse of my 4th of July.... A day spent with family eating, reminiscing, laughing and being proud to be American (aww, wasn't that cheesy?)

We'll start with some pretty things...

and then on to this cool thing...

and now for some fuzzy things... (just, what is that?)

just... what is this... so cute.

 so fuzzy...

my sweet Mawmaw

Pawpaw and the boys

Mawmaw and her grandsons-in-law (and Suzie Q, of course.....)

and now on to the food...

All-American

Dinner on the grill

Dinner on my plate

And on to the ride home:

of course......

of course....

of course....

OF COURSE!!! :)

I had such an amazing 4th of July and hope everyone else did too!!! Check out my brother-in-law's blog for amazing and beautiful pictures he took, as well at chesbromania.blogspot.com

Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing

Today, while sweet little Kasen was taking his nap.....

we colored pictures in honor of the 4th of July!

If you can't tell, that's the American flag and some fireworks.... oh, and Nolan wanted us to draw smiley faces on our picture, too. What little artists!

I'm really excited about the 4th! Me and my family are driving down to Birmingham (where I was born and raised) to celebrate with my extended family. We leave tomorrow and come back Sunday. I love my family so much and can't wait to be in Pawpaw's backyard cooking out, running around and shooting fireworks. Hope everyone has an amazing 4th!

more test runs....

I'm still trying to get the hang of the blogging world. My next few blogs will probably be stupid, but I just want to give it a shot and make sure this stuff becomes smooth sailing....

anywho.

Here's a few pics I took just to see if I could actually figure out how to post them successfully, haha. I guess you could say they describe me as a person :)

I'm obsessed with iced coffee. I make it every morning and pretty much drink it all day long.

Have you tried Starburst Fave Reds? Oh my goodness. Just do it. Probably my fave candy.

"True love is a friendship set on fire." I love this picture and the little iron birdie next to it. But I would say the quote dead on describes my relationship with my husband. He is my best friend in the whole world and we are so much alike, it's like God not only sewed our hearts together, but our minds, too! I love his company and he is my better half. He's amazing and I've truly been blessed to have married him. Speaking of...........

I can't imagine life without him.

And then there's my sweet little boogers: Nolan, Aiden and Kasen.

But this post wouldn't be complete without my fluffy white kitty, Don Vito... Lame? Listen, he ran away and I was so sad and then 6 months later... there he was. I hold him close to my heart. Haha! No really....

Just look at him....

He's so cute....

and white.....

My first blog!

So this is my very first post! I hope everyone enjoys the posts to come :)
