hellogoodbye!

So 1st off welcome baby Mason!! My sister had her baby this week and i'm so excited for them and their family.. and my mom's 1st grandbaby! Mom and baby are doing well from what i hear and i am sure can't wait till my mom gets there tom. to help let mom sleep!!!
Some other exciting news is we are moving! But just to the apartment complex next door! We figured we have one more year.. might as well go ahead and get the washer and dryer hook up so we stop free loading off others.. even though it is always a good time getting together when we have to do laundry.. and then we also will have a tennis court, nicer pool.. and cheaper rent! It is nice being able to clean out some stuff and it will definitely be my spring cleaning for the year! We are trying to move out by next week so we can go ahead and shut off our power and water and such.. but we don't have to be moved out till the end of the month!
I have also started my new dress i am making.. luckily i got to spend time with my mom a lot last weekend and she helped getting the project started. I must give a shout out to my dad who is a trouper and has had to go the hospital more than he needs to because he is on blood thinner. .. any injury he has is multiplied 100x because of it. and he had to go to the hospital with a torn hamstring. He did get to come home from the hospital and was feeling much better by the time the weekend was over which was good! My brother dean and stacy were in town too so it was fun being with my family- especially since pete was working all weekend! But life's great and we are moving slowly but surely!

Savannah Trip!





So i am sorry this is a month behind... every time i thought about updating about our trip i was not on my computer with the pictures.. and just never got done.. ANYWAYS we got to take a weekend away with our friends the Thomas' and the Jambors! We got to go around downtown on friday and eat at this pizza place that refused to sit all 8 of us.. so we went in four at a time.. tricked them.. they were just dumb! but the pizza was pretty good! then we walked through many of the squares. We thought about doing a walking ghost tour.. but decided we could make up our own scary stories as we toured the town ourselves! Since it was the weekend before St. Patty's day (aka leprechauns day at the school i work at... ehhh) there were lots of fun people watching going on all weekend as well as some live music on the street! We had a great time dancing and singing and making fools of ourselves... and trying to compete with each other to try and get beads. I lost.. but it was fun to compete. Then Saturday was spent at Tybee Island after we ate at Sticky Fingers for a late breakfast/early lunch then we went and played football on the beach in jeans and jackets with our bathing suits on under neath.. just in case the sun came out! But the bead competition got hard core on saturday with the parade! there was no flashing going on.. just screaming and dancing to get attention trying to get someone to throw some beads! I had to kiss this old pirate man on the cheek for one.. michelle danced with an old man.. it was gross.. but it was all for the competition! haha We finished off the day with dinner at Maggianos and hot tubbing at the hotel before me and pete made our way back home for him to make it back to work!! We had such a good time visiting the old city and getting to know our friends better! We were upset we did not get to visit the "Forsyth Park" which is one of the largest in the city and has the large water fountain. We hope we can go again next year!
