Happy Belated Birthday Granny!

My computer has been down so I wasn't able to post anything for a couple of weeks...so therefore I am late! I had to attend a 2 week Amsti workshop so I was unable to visit Granny on her actual birthday but the two of us celebrated her b'day this past Monday together. We went to lunch at Eagle Rock Cafe and then for supper I wanted to learn how to make her absolutely wonderful Chicken and Dumplings. So, we had a mini cooking session and who better to learn from than one of the BEST! We made a wonderful supper together and Riley came up to eat with us. It was great spending the day together!! I am so thankful that I have such a wonderful Grandmother! (Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures so I posted these instead.)


Girl's Sushi Nights

On Tuesday night's at Chucks Fish they have "Ladies Night" for Sushi. Only the ladies get the discount! I love Sushi so this is just great for me so a few of us girls try to go whenever possible. This past Tuesday Peyton joined us for lots of really good sushi...fried green tomatoes...and yes we HAD to have dessert! I am so glad that you came Peyton and I look forward to our next month's sushi night.Peyton, me & Bethany

Kimberly & Cory's Wedding

Saturday the 12th, one of my good friends from college married Cory Phillips (from Berry). I know what a small world! And in September another one of my college friends is marrying Zach (Cory's brother)! We had a wonderful time at their wedding and it turned out beautiful! I am so glad that I could be a part of it. Here are a few pictures from the weekend...

Keep us in your prayers

I just wanted to say thanks to all of those that have been praying for our family. For those who don't know, Riley's mom had a liver transplant Sunday the 13th (her birthday). She is at UAB and doing great. I have been amazed at how fast everything has moved in less than 2 weeks. She should move out of the hospital and into a hotel near the hospital tomorrow and she will have to stay there for a few more weeks. Just keep praying for a fast recovery. I know HE will take care of her! Thanks again for all of your thoughts and prayers!
