We Made It....

Well, today is Friday. We made it through the week! Miranda comes home tomorrow and everybody is so excited!I know that she is so ready to see her babies! Layla asked me on Wednesday, "Now when is my Momma coming home from 'Guatalamala'?" Haha. Close enough. Tuesday was a long day. It was coming a heck of a storm when I got up so I had to get three kids out into the pouring rain to take Logan to school. It was so nasty outside. Lawson screamed all the way to school and all the way back home. He spent more time crying than he did not crying that day. He was running a fever and he was just miserable. He was up and down all night. The rest of the week was much better however. We made it with no catastrophes. (Other than Logan "accidentally" jabbing Layla with a thumb tack.) On Wednesday Layla, Lawson and I went to Jacksonville to visit some old friends. It brought back such happy memories! Oh how I miss that place. I suppose it is sort of bitter sweet because Brian and I really dealt with a lot while living there (my parents getting divorced, Brian's dad passing away, etc...) but we also had SO much fun. We had NO IDEA how good we had it!! We often joke about how fun it would be to just go back for one week. We both know that it would never be the some though. We went to Struts where Layla and I shared some bacon cheese fries that were SO good. I found myself just driving around letting all of the old memories just flood back to me but then I realized that I probably wouldn't move back even if I had the chance. So much has changed. Not that I could ever get Ross out of Rodentown!! Ha.
Today was a good day. Ross and I got out just to "loafer" (as my Dad would say). We were driving by the outlets and I noticed that they had a new Catalog Closeout store and I talked Ross into stopping. I was SO glad that we did. I have been looking for disposable cameras and they are so expensive! Ok, so $6.oo isn't expensive but when you are looking to buy a bunch of them it really adds up. I want several of them to put on the tables at our wedding reception so that all the guests can take pictures. Then the guests just leave them on the tables and you take them and get them developed. How fun! So, I found Kodak disposable cameras for $1.00 each today!!! How exciting! I only bought ten but I think that I am going to go back and pick up some more. I am going with my grandmother in the morning to Hazel Green to my little cousins soccer game so I am thinking about using one of the cameras and getting it developed to make sure that it works. If so, I will definitely pick up several more. We goofed off until around four and then we had to go home so that Ross could get ready to go to work. Overall it has been a pretty good week, however THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME! I can't wait to crawl into my own bed! I hope that everyone has had a great week. I can't wait for Sunday. I didn't get to go to my church on Wednesday night and oh how I missed it. My soul is hungry, and it can't get here fast enough!!!
