Another Hodge Podge

I left off last week talking about my weekend plans. Well, none of it came through! After work I had errands to run then made it home just in time to pick Brad up and take him to the after hours clinic. He has strep! Then we met Pug, Tyler (age 10) and Haley (age 8) at Cafe Mike's.

Saturday the weather was terrible. It rained all.day.long plus we had tornado watches and warnings for our area. It finally cleared out in the afternoon long enough for us to go to town, eat and then rent a movie. We took them to Geisha {the new Japanese restaurant} and they loved it. Haley will eat anything and try anything Tyler is more like me-- very picky about food! He enjoyed his shrimp, but wouldn't touch the sushi {cooked!}. We rented 2012 and went back to the house just in time for more rain and more bad weather. The movie was pretty good, but long. We called it a night about 11pm!

Sunday morning we woke up to even worse weather! More rain and wind and rain and rain and rain. I had already showered for church then decided I couldn't drive myself in that mess and then I received a text telling me church was cancelled due to flooding roads! The rain finally slacked off enough for Pug and the kids to leave and head back toward Arkansas. He had a terrible time finding a way to town due to water on the roads. I've got pictures of town flooding and I'll post those later.

Monday was my 26th birthday! Some of the people I work with had me a small birthday party. The cake was YUM. After work, I went grocery shopping {how grown up of myself...} then home to help Brad load the tractor and return it to his grandfather. We visited with them a bit then hit up Waffle House {yes, I know you're jealous of my birthday celebration!}.

Tuesday Brad's parents, sister and grandparents took us out for my birthday. We went to Taylor's. Due to all of the flooding, a lot of places were closed!

Yesterday I went to Lowe's and Wal-Mart to do a little shopping. I ended up with a new American flag, two ferns and some Miracle Grow soil (I'll need all the help I can get). I hope to finish this project this weekend if I can find the time!

Today {Thursday} is Chloe's first t-ball game! I can't wait to see how much she's changed since last year. Afterwards I'll get to spend a little time with my family for my birthday! :)

I think Levi is coming in this weekend and I have plans to go to Tupelo with my sister and mom. Sunday is Mother's Day so I'll have even more family time! My family plans on having lunch together at Chapman's then we're going to Collierville with Brad's family Sunday afternoon. What a busy weekend?!
