Dad & Family

The Tears.......

Though I wasn't able to make it up as early as I was hoping too, Uncle Jack made a presentation to dad, (he even was able to talk), God knows Uncle Jack has been a H.U.G.E part of my family and I am extremely lucky God put him & pops together as friends!! Thanks for the years of memories Uncle Jack, and I am looking forward to a lifetime of many more!!!!

Dad & Mr. R Boone

Okay this is dad on the left and Mr. Boone on the right, Mr. Boone is dad's first boss (that i can remember), I remember mom taking me up to visit dad when i was a youngin and being bored really quickly (what can i say), but Mr. Boone would come and get me out of the computer room and take me in his office and let me play on his computer and keep me occupied!! (Yeah i know that was a hard thing to do back then). I am so extremely glad that He was able to come up for Dad's retirement and I am really glad I got to see him and talk with him!

He's OFFICIALLY Retired

He's OFFICIALLY Retired from the State!!!!!!

The lady responisble for Mr. & Mrs. Ronnie Driggers

Okay so the lady pictured with dad is Juanita (i hope i spelled it right), she introduced my parents!!

Girlfriends

As I am sure you all have heard me say before, that I met, got to know, and found space for all of them in my heart, the three other girls above are girlfriends of mine that have a very special place in my heart!

Where did that door go????

Well, since it has been a little bit since i have posted something new, I figured i would go ahead and post some thoughts that I have been having...

1. Life is so fun, enjoy it, every breath, every moment!
2. Retirement???
3. Has one door closed and your looking for a window, instead of seeing the "NEW" door?
4. Friends are sisters' God wanted you to have in life
5. People who mean the world to you, and they are not even related!!! But you know God put them in your life for a Reason, A Season, or a Lifetime!!! (Uncle Rob, Aunt Jan, Uncle Jack, Uncle Rex, Grammie, MONA, Ms. P, Mr. Ron, Mrs. SP "MUM", Ms. V, Audrey, Mrs. Brenda S, Yetta) in each of your own way you all have become a wonderful influence in my life and for that I am thankful!!! I know that i may not get to see you all very often, but you best bet, when i do get to see each of you, I make the world of it!!!
6. Marbury vs Prattville..... Can you find a friend in any???

Wonder World

Emma Cate (Cate-Cate)

Half time, time for me to get the attention!!!

It's Hollywood on the phone;

I don't think they are ready for me yet though

I am ready for my close up Mr D'ville

Jimbo

Jimbo to me, and Jimmy Dean to the rest of the family, ***Sorry son, you have been Jimbo since i learned how to say it!!!

Song was "Me & God"

The song she loves to dance too is called "Me & God" by Josh Turner

They are taken by a camera phone by someone else, so they don't look to great!! But none the less she is happy when she gets to get up and dance!!!

Baby Daniel

Meet Baby Daniel.........

Funny

Look aren't they adorable??? I think it's so funny that both of the parents and one set of grandparents are die hard Alabama fans!!! And my sweet younger cousin's turned out to be die hard Auburn Fans!!! ***War Eagle***

***Shout out to Honey Boo***

The group from Jamaica

This is the "group" picture from Jamaica, Bre just emailed it to me, so I had to post!!! It was an awesome trip over to the Island, and a first experience for me (first plane trip, and you should know it was so worth it!!!) I really got to know, Bre's future inlaws' which i adore!!! , and then I got to spend more time and get even closer with Aunt May (she's the one beside the bride in the picture) whom i adore, though my mom use to always threaten me with her as a child, but you know the older i got i learned that my wonderful Aunt May was there for me regardless of anything!!! You earned the cool points in Jamaica though Aunt May!! I will tell you whose in the picture now...

From Left to Right:

front row: Uncle Tom, Maw-Maw, Jennifer, Michael (groom), Brandi (bride), Aunt May, Mrs. Dixie, Mrs. Regina, Mr Billy (he's hillarious)

back row: Justin, me, Paw-Paw, Josh, Uncle Bill, Tootsie, & Matt

All i can say if you weren't there on the trip, you missed one heck of a volleyball game!!!!

A gift designed by Aunt May

okay so mom brought home this box (below) from granny's. Which the night before Aunt may had sent me a txt telling me she was leaving my birthday gift at granny's... Okay so I get really excited because i know (off hand) it's going to be something creative!!!!

so as i open the box, there's paper inside, so as i start taking the paper out, I find pictures of family..... How cool is it...

what can i say aunt may, you put your twist on an awesome birthday present!!! I hope some of that creative "bug" spread to me.... I love you dearly Aunt May with all of my heart!!!

Birthday Girl

Well it's official, I am 26yrs old. It's been a wonderful day so far... Brandi was actually the first one to wish me a happy birthday!!! Then i got a phone call from Angie on the house telling me that Mr Pat had died, so i knew it was time then to get on up and finish getting ready so that I could meet the girls in Walsboro (Bells, Mrs. Angela, Linda & some of her family, LuLu)... Which was a great time to spend with them.. I got some birthday presents and some cake... oh and this awesome fruit salad thing that Mrs. Angela made (oh my it's awesome)... Though i am hearing she makes really great Banana pudding (??????????) yes Mrs. Angela that would be as some would say a (hint, hint)...

Anywho, I had an awesome Birthday so far, and I am blessed to have awesome Family & Friends!!!

Now if Auburn would win, that would totally be a great Birthday present!!!!!!
