If you are reading these blog updates go to where I started with "Ashton moves into the dorm"....and read them backwards!!!

Girlfriends night out!





The FOUR of us are back together! My three close friends went to BoneFish to celebrate Christmas...and celebrate we DID!!! We had a fabulous drink called a "White Martini"...it was like Christmas in a glass. We had a $210.00 bar tab! HaHahahaaaaaa. Our SWEET husbands picked us up!!

Christmas in Biloxi






We celebrated Christmas with the Fulmer family in Biloxi at my Brother and Sister in law's house this year. The weather was beautiful and the food was great! Maybe this could become a tradition?!

Snow in Madison!




It's always such a surprise when it snows here in Mississippi! Mark and I were at a party at a friends house when the snow started....yes, people were throwing snowballs and I was so tempted to do a snow angel!!!!

Christmas in Madison




It's DECEMBER!!!! WooooHoooo!!!! I am rockin this blog stuff!!!! Remember Michele...this is for YOU!!!
I did very little decorating in Madison this year...I did not put up the big tree...I only did a little decorating on the kitchen island and the dining room table. It was awesome when it came time to put it all up!

Thanksgiving






We celebrated Thanksgiving in Port Gibson this year! A dream come true for me!! I had the best time getting the house ready...we actually FINISHED painting the dining room. It's a beautiful pale pink with a pale pale blue ceiling! My mother brought the bulk of the food..I added a few casseroles and the rolls! After we ate we took our annual family portrait and drove to a few of the sights in Port Gibson...the Ruins of Windor and the Mississippi River. Good Times!

Maw Maw's 95th Birthday!


This is my cousin Mike, Me and my brother Wes at my grandmother's 95th birthday party!

Spark





I touched on "Spark" earlier in my blog and said I'd add more later...Here it is! Sister and I flew to Salt Lake City, Utah in November to a creative event called Spark! We had classes in jewelry making, scrapbooking, photography, sewing...we met so many nice and creative people. We had a wonderful time and hope to go again!

Kayak Mississippi




Also in October, Friends of ours stayed with us in Port Gibson for the annual Kayak race on the Mississippi River. It starts in Port Gibson and ends in Natchez. Lynn and her brother Pard were the only two that participated in the race...the rest of us were there for moral support! It was tons of fun for us and lots of hard work for them, but I hope they will do it again next year!

Reid


It's October now! September flew by with me home ALONE cleaning out the pantry and trying to reorganize my life....that's when I should have updating my blog! Anyway, back to October. Mark and I drove to Sumrall. MS to watch Reid play football. It was So Much Fun! Reid played great, it was an exciting game and they WON!

Austin's Hunt


It's September now! Austin went on his first hunt in Oxford with a lot of his friends...looks like they had a successful hunt!

Larry's Birthday





For Larry's birthday, Nicole hooked us up with a Limo....Susan prepared a wonderful bag dinner with iced down beer and we headed to Joseph's football game! You should have seen the looks we got when we drove up in the limo! We had a great time!

Nana visits Ashton




Ashton's Nana wanted to visit her and see her dorm room so we took a road trip to Starkville. I was feeling bad because her walls were so bare so we added some stuff ..... you should see them now!... she has added much much more since this picture was taken. Remember we are still in August 2009!
