Sorry it is sideways don't know what happened

Wedding Bells are ringing!!!

Congrats are in order for John D and Necia. (Necia is hub's cousing) We traveled to Baton Rouge on Thursday evening for the festivities. Buggers and I attended the Bridesmaids luncheon at Aunt Mary's on Friday where we were treated with great food and beautiful atmosphere. Necia was so sweet and gave Buggers a cute backpack with a sweet Cabbage Patch doll and bracelet. The bag also had her initial monogrammed on it. I was really nervous about Buggers walking down the aisle at the church. She is pretty shy and nervous around people she doesn't know. But to my surprise she pranced (literally) down the aisle and even stood at the front of the church. Hubs and I had a great time at the reception. The kids loved dancing to the music and hanging out with their cousins.

23 bags of leaves on the wall...

Last saturday I decided to do the daunting task of raking leaves in the front yard. As I walk Abbie I notice all the other yards look so neat and clean without a leaf in sight. Then our yard looks like where all the leaves congregate in the neighborhood. Well we made it a family affair and got everyone involved...even Abbie.

Their first time to get ice cream off the ice cream truck...a dying novelty

New Heights to Sundays

We headed down last Sunday to my sister's new house in the Heights. We went to a cute little park. Hubs and I felt like fish out of water there. We are such suburbanites with our comfy jeans, tee shirts, tennis shoes and minivans amongst the city folks whose idea of casual is still linen pants.
