My Birthday

With quite an eventful and very busy weekend ahead, Riley and I decided to celebrate my birthday on Thursday. (My actual birthday was Saturday) He suprised me with flowers to school and then took me to a wonderful dinner at Kozy's. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband!

One of my gifts was this wine opener

Happy Belated Birthday Mom

Sorry, I am trying to catch up on all my post! My mom's birthday was on Saturday and I wanted to wish her a Happy belated Birthday!! Mom, you are a wonderful friend and mother and I don't know what I would do without you!! Thanks for everything! I love you!

Cyndee's tea

Cyndee's church tea was on Sunday at Brent Baptist. She is the last wedding I am in this year. It will be so sad when I can't see my friends as often as I have the past 6 or so months!!

Too HOT!

WOW! What is with the weather? It felt really good all week and then of course on the weekend when you can actually enjoy it, it is so hot! Riley and I had tickets to the game and I don't know what I was thinking because I wore a black dress. I thought I was doing good by wearing a dress and not jeans, but black was not the best color I could have chosen! We were right in the sun!! I couldn't take it and so we left at half time. We weren't the only ones leaving because of the heat though...we overheard a lot of people talking about it as we were walking out. Riley wasn't much on staying the whole time either since it wasn't the best game. So we just met up with our friends and continued to watch the game in where there was an aircondioner! Roll Tide! Thanks for another win (even though it wasnt the best they have ever played!)

Joining the Church

Last Sunday I officially joined the church where I started going when Riley and I started dating. This is also where we got married (Tuscaloosa First United Methodist). Riley was already a member and his parents attend there. I really like it there and I love the preacher! Mom and Dad were able to come visit and go to lunch after. Unfortunately, Riley's mom had been in the hospital with some complications with her liver, so we headed up to UAB to visit her that afternoon.

Kitten anyone??

Riley and I have a cat that we mainly have around to catch rodents (I know, I know that sounds bad!) We do pet it and its a very pretty cat, but that is its main purpose. We didn't get it as a pet. Well, now we are just loaded well joy because we have 5 kittens!! I say that with sarcasm, but I have really caught myself liking them a little. I have been taking pictures of them and wanting to play with them a lot. HOWEVER, I do not want FIVE kittens EVER!!! haha. They are the prettiest little kittens though with pretty blue eyes!! If anyone is interested...just let me know! :)

Roll Tide!!

I am so glad when this time of year rolls around each year. The weather gets cooler, the leaves changes into beautiful colors and of course we can't leave out Alabama football!! Each home game we set up a tailgate even if we aren't planning on going to the game. It is so nice to get everyone together and we always have lots of food to eat and good company! This is something that one day I hope my children will also enjoy doing as well (given that I hope that they too are Alabama fans!)
