A Week Has Come and Gone !

Well it has been a week since I posted anything so I thought that I might need to say something. Our week has been busy as always. Emma-Claire has gymnastics and dance on Mondays and Tuesdays in Houston so I pick up her and her two cousins on those days. Tuesday night we stayed in Houston after dance because our Jr. high school football team (yes we have a football team now) played. Of course we have to go and cheer for our WILDCATS! Although our guys didn't win they played hard.

Wednesday night our children's group went to Pontotoc, MS to go roller skating. We had 45 children to go.... Whew, it was nuts!!!!!! Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the skating and pizza.

Now Thursday night our high school football team played in New Site. It was supposed to be in Houston (b/c that's where we are playing our home games)but b/c of all the rain we got last Friday and Saturday the field was just not playable.
Now to the best part of this story: My dear and loving husband was driving us to the game and got us lost..... Yeah, lost! He thought he knew where he was going but guess what he didn't....... So when we ended up in Booneville I knew we were lost... You see I had already been to this field b/c we played our first game there back at the start of the season, but like most men he didn't think I knew what I was talking about sooooooooooooo after 30 miles later we made it.... He won't be driving us back !!!!!!!

Friday night I went to dinner and a movie with my friend Crystie and her friend Nat. We went to see It's All About THE WOMEN, it was alright. Kinda reminded me of SEX and THE CITY.

Saturday we just hung out around the house and then after Carl got home from calling some pee wee football games we headed to Tupelo to my parents. We had dinner with them and of course we watched the MSU VS LSU game. We didn't win but we showed improvement.......

Today we went to church and then this afternoon we enjoyed the sunshine.
Had to make a Wal-Mart trip too so now the day is complete..... Ha!

Hope everyone has a great week!!!!!

Blogging, What's That?

This idea of me blogging well it hasn't been what I thought it would be. The thought of me having to sit down and type about my day and what has been going on sometimes gets the best of me. I enjoy way better looking at other blogs and seeing other layouts rather than blogging on my own blog. I guess you could say that I am cyber staking.HA HA
This afternoon I turned on my computer and pulled up one of my friends blog and I notice she had changed her layout, so what do I do, I changed my layout. Nothing like being a copy cat!!!! I loved her page so I went to the site that she got hers from and I got a new page layout. I'm sure this is just a thrill to the 1 person reading this, which right now is ME!!!!

Anyway, just an update on my dad. He is doing much better since he has been home from the hospital. He came home on Monday of this past week and every day he has gotten better. He even went to church today. Yey..... He goes back to the doctor tomorrow so I hope that his doctor tells him that he can drive. He hasn't been able to do that this week.
All in all we have had a good weekend. On Friday night Will went to spend the night with a friend so I let Emma-Claire have a friend over at our house. The girls were very good so I really couldn't complain.
Saturday it rained mostly all morning and after lunch, Will and I ran to Tupelo to do a little shopping and went by to see Pops(aka my dad). He was watching football. Yes it was the MSU- Georgia Tech game, need I say anything else....

Carl had a pretty busy Friday and Saturday calling football games. He was really tried when he got home Saturday afternoon.... He and I went to a wedding on Saturday night, it was really sweet and very pretty.
We all went to church this morning and we will go back tonight, so now this afternoon as I write everyone is just relaxing and enjoying the sunshine.....
Have a great Sunday.........

Family.........

Since Wednesday night my dad has been sick and is in the North Mississippi Medical Center. What we thought was just a virus ended up beinging his appendix. So you guessed it, he had an appendectomy on Thursday morning. Everything went well but I think he thought he would be up and at it today, well that's not the case... He's not as young as he used to be, so he will be there until Monday (we hope). Let's hope tomorrow will be a better day for all.....

Last night Houlka played their first home football game. Well it's really not home because we are having to play in Houston until we get our own field but never the less we played... We didn't win but we did play great defense in spite of the score 38 - 0 !!!!! Our offense on the other hand, well let's just say needs impovement....... BUT there is hope, this is our first year and we WILL get better, maybe even score......... Emma-Claire and about oh 15 other little girls her age got to cheer with the BIG cheerleaders last night too.... I don't have pictures yet but I will have some maybe by the end of the weekend..... They were sooooooooooo cute!!!!

Everyone had a good time and maybe just maybe the Houlka Wildcats can pull one off a win before the end of the season...... GO WILDCATS!!!!!!

I Haven't Forgotten......

I know, I know it's been several days that I've blogged but time just gets away. We have been busy with work, school, dance, gymnastics and football, gosh where does the day go.
Last weekend we went to Starkville to see the MSU Bulldogs play. I'm glad to report that they won..... (smile) A fun time was enjoyed by all!
Maybe soon I will learn how to put pics up on the page.....

12 Years and Counting.........

This weekend was mine and Carl's 12th year of marriage. Yeah I know wooooooo hoooooooo!!! But anyway we went out on Friday night because on Saturday we had to watch some MSU football and we had family in for the holiday. We went to eat at Romie's in Tupelo. Let me just tell you it was great.
Like I said Saturday was the big day, MSU FOOTBALL !!!! Now anyone that knows my husband knows that he lives for MSU FOOTBALL, but need less to say the game didn't go as planned in his mind. Yes, State lost! We were very sad, BUT there is always next Saturday.........

On Monday, which was Labor Day, Will, Carl, Luke, and my dad all went dove hunting. They killed three so the boys were happy... I guess anyone can be happy at 4:00 in the a.m. NOT ME !!!!!!
