Dinner/movie Well ... Sort of

So as I said in my last post Lakelynn came down for the weekend and we just loved having her here I really cannot say enough good things about the Swann family. They have always meant a lot to me and Missy (Lake's mom) always gives me some really good advice. Well my mom and Missy came down yesterday to get Lake and they also stayed the night and left just about 30 minutes ago. We stayed up talking last night until around 2 a.m. something we always do when we get together like that.


The week was great I had so much help, I mean she done things before I could even ask her to (Lake that is) she does not understand how much I needed that. So Saturday I took her to All Fired Up so she and I could spend some time alone and we had a blast. I painted a plate with me and Monte him as a Alabama football player and me as a Bama cheerleader and it said Monte & Megan at the top, Roll Tide at the bottom. Very cute! Lakie made the cutest horse tile, she also made her granny and grandaddy a coffee mug. Hers was also very cute! Then later we met mine and her mom in town and did a little retail therapy. =) My mom got a lot of cute stuff for her shop which by the way if you live in Muscle Shoals or just need a awesome hair dresses hop on over to A Day of Beauty and Shopping and the shopping part if you need any home decor or flowers for a grave that's the place to go.


So (I say SO a lot lol) tonight I made Tacos and peanut butter balls for everyone (and the PB balls were a little diff from Missy I added graham crackers yummy) and after everyone left we watched Shriek which about 5 minutes in LL fell asleep and about 10 minutes after that A went to bed. So as I am typing this the movie is playing well actually it just ended.


I just want to say thank you again to Lake. I love you! and Thank you to Missy for the advice and talk we had last night and of course my mommy for the everyday advice you give me.


I want to end this post on something I don't say enough... What all I am thankful for. Today I am thankful for two healthy little girls who I love more than anything. I think God for picking me to be their mom and I thank God also for sending Monte to me and even more for sending him to my girls. You are a great man Monte Lynn. I love you!!

Different Things....

I just have a few different things to blog about today or actually tonight.


First off I am still loving having Lake here. I think I have changed A's diaper maybe once?? LOL She even did the dishes for me and cleaned LL's room. I really don't want to give her back she is such a joy. And not to mention the girls are LOVING her. By the way I just want to throw this out there, I am not the best at writing I am not sure where commas go or where to end a sentence so just bare with me. =)





LL got in trouble today and we put her in "time out" for a few minutes and when we went to tell her she could get out this is what we found. LOL A was upset that her big sis was in trouble. Bless it!










The next two pictures are the other morning getting ready for church. I just thought the girls looked adorable well like always =)









And this cute chick in her bathrobe. Such a cutie pie!








Ok since Lake is here, hubby and I have had time alone which is unheard of for us. Since hubs has weird days off we went on a date Tuesday night and we went to the Comedy Club. LL helped me get ready and pick out my clothes. She told me I could wear her princess jewelry and princess dress but we ended up settling on the outfit below, I thought the princess attire might be over dressed and like LL said wouldn't fit. lol ok Let me just say I LOVE the Comedy Club we had a blast. We were just going to go out to eat then head there well since we couldn't find a restaurant we just decided to eat there. It was pretty yummy to and not too pricey all though I don't know when the last time we actually spent that much on a date night. lol We also were able to go to the golf course yesterday, which must I add was my first time ever to attempt to play and geeesh that mess is hard but now I see why my hubster is addicted. I am ready to go back.



Here is a picture of my sweet LL helping me get ready for Prince Daddy!









The night of our date. A had to be in the picture of course =)

Drawing a blank here... lol

Well we didn't have a movie dinner night last week. We ended up going to my moms on Friday then coming home last night. We do however plan to have one this week, just have to pick out a movie and go from there.

We had a good weekend. I got to see friends I haven't seen in forever it seems, LL and A got to see their cousins with a spend-the-night party. I wish we lived close to M's family so we could get together with them more often, I know the girls would love that as well. However. it is very nice to be home. =)

Lakelynn, which is a forever family friends daughter, came back with me to spend the weekend with us and I must say I am excited. She is the sweetest little thing ever and such a HUGE help with the girls. Before I can even get up to change A's diaper she is already on it. She plays with LL, whatever game it may be. Her sister came last summer too and we loved having her as well. These two chicks are so well mannered and such a blessing to have around. It's nice to have so many people that care about our family and the Swann family is definitely one's that do. Also their mama Missy has given me some good advice over the years, I feel like she is my second mom as I call her my Godmother. As we speak Lake is at the kitchen table playing with play dough with both girls and they are having a blast with their little giggles now and then. It's going to be a great week ahead. =)

Hope you all have a blessed week and come back soon ya hear...




She put her hands on her hips and said "cheese"
