What a weekend!

**Updated**

Whew! This has been a busy weekend. Friday, after work, I got my hair done (woohoo!). Doesn't every girl just love getting their hair done? Afterwards, I waited for Brad to get home from work-- he works way too much during the summer. We tried out a friend's new restaurant and had some great steaks.

Saturday, Brad flew down to Starkville to help his brother move. Our friend, Chad, flew down with him so I'm sure they had a great time! After cleaning the house, I met my mom in town to spend some time with her. She's been working in Oxford lately so I don't get to see her as much as I used to.

Sunday morning, Brad helped our friend Kenny move cows. Every year they move, vaccinate, tag, and separate the moma cows and the calves. Also, Brad gets injured every year! This year he was lucky enough to not get hurt. I went to church and then went grocery shopping. When I got home we started work on our 2nd bedroom. It's still a work in progress, but we'll get it finished one day! Brad's back in the air again. He met a friend of his in town to drive somewhere in AL to take off. I think they're going to fly up around Reelfoot Lake (?) He should be back around 7pm or so! We're having enchiladas for supper.

I'll leave you with a picture of our puppy, Amos---

As soon as I hit the "publish" button an old friend drove up! We haven't seen Levi in a while- he got a job rebuilding beaches and he's living in New Orleans right now. He was kind enough to bring a Cajun Cookbook for Brad. They have been close friends since Jr High and they lived together for about two years. Levi knows Brad likes to cook and thought this was perfect for him. I know the book will come in handy during our next crawfish boil! Levi and I got to visit for hours before Brad made it home about 8:30. He even stayed over last night~ it was great seeing him, but it made for a late night. I've been dragging today!

First Post

This is my first attempt at blogging. I love reading other blogs and a friend and I have been chatting about starting our own blogs. We told each other that we wouldn't tell anyone about them until the blogs were up and going! Ha! Friends keep telling me this is a learning process so I hope to know what I'm doing before too long.

If you're reading this blog, then you already know who I am and probably my life story. Ha! If you somehow stumbled on my blog- my name is Cassie and I've been married to my hubby Brad for over a year now. We are currently living in Hinkle with our 11 month old Mastiff, Amos Moses.

I hope to use the blog to keep my family and friends up-to-date on my life since I seem to be so busy these days; plus I'd like a way to keep track of things! A friend of mine, Jenessa, has tried to get me into scrapbooking, but I don't have that much time these days. I think blogging will be quicker and easier for me- plus it will force me to keep my photo albums up to date!
