Pine Tree 09
Last year I had one word for the Pine Tree Festival it was hot this year the word is WET!! No, but we had a good time. The concert was moved to the high school gym. It took alot of work but was one of the best concerts.
These first two pics are Darci with Mark Wills. The one with all of us in it is Trent Willmon, Jeff Bates then Mark. We had a good time after the concert. Mark, Jeff and Trent all came back over and ate. Darci crashed before they made it back. When Mark came in I looked over and he was taking pics of Darci crashed on the couch of the retirement center with his phone. He said he loved it and it reminded him of his daughter. They were all really nice but Mark was the most down to earth and would just sit and talk and talk about everything.
Mommy's 31st Birthday
I had a wonderful birthday weekend. Wilbur, Darci and Bret surprised me with a new comforter set. I am not an easy person to surprise. :) Darci and Bret stayed Friday night with Nana and Papa Johnnie. This was B's first time to get to stay with anyone except Nonnie and I think he wore them smooth out. Todd talked us into trying Osaka Friday night. I had been to Shoguns so I knew kinda what it was all about. We had the best time and Wilb even wants to go back. This was way out of his meat and potatoes comfort zone.
Saturday night we celebrated with Darci and Bret. We had a yummy ice cream cake from Coldstone and Daddy grilled steaks. Wonderful weekend!!!
Just Because...

Tomorrow Our World Changes...
Kindergarten
Tomorrow...is the day. I know it's just kindergarten but after tomorrow our world will then revolve around the school year and friends and lots of other stuff. Again I know it's just kindergarten but I have spent the last while thinking alot about my baby girl and how this will change everything, in just 13 years she will be all grown up. I have been praying for your friends (girls and boys). I have been praying for your future. You will have to make some choices on your own very soon and be independent. Again I know its just kindergarten...but you are my best friend....I love you.
The Night Before
First Day of Kindergarten!!!
This first picture is of you and Mrs. Pickett at the Open House.
Today you got right up when I called you and then I think you realized what was going on. You started telling me "I'm tired" I had to get on to you a couple of times and then I realized you were terrified and nervous. Nonnie stopped by to see you and she took Bret to school for us so we could have some secret time together. Daddy gave you a little pep talk and you were good to go. We stopped by so Mamaw and Mawmaw could see you all ready for school. You were super sweet and had a great day. Daddy and I stayed until the bell rang. You love Mrs. Pickett!!
I think this is going to be a good year. Kortny is going to help you figure out the breakfast thing in the morning. You love her so that will be good.
This evening you crashed at 6:15 and have slept all night, so I know you had a great day! Love you my big girl.
