Wow...what a week!! Here is a little catch up...I was supposed to fly to Dallas on Monday, but because of the storms three of us ended up making the four hour drive instead. And all for a 24 hour meeting...seriously?!? One good thing was that we got to watch the Texas Rangers play the Toronto Bluejays that evening. I got back to Little Rock Tuesday night and was ready to sleep in my bed!
Thursday evening we went to the Symphony Designer House in Little Rock. Every year they take a house and different designers are chosen to decorate a room, then it is shown to the public. It's done to raise money for the symphony and there's always a great turnout. Charla was chosen as one of the designers and not only did she get to design a room, but she was given the living room!!! A huge honor!! Matt and I had a great time! Friday night (I was so glad this work week was over), Matt and I grilled out and had Heather and Greg over for burgers before he and I left to go to the James Taylor concert...which by the way was fantastic!! I could have listened to James ALL NIGHT LONG!!
Saturday didn't start out like I planned. Our lawn mower crapped out on us this past week so our agenda for the day consisted of getting a new one. Well, before leaving the house that morning, I walk in to turn on our computer and what do you know?!? It's crashed!! Nothing like dropping a grand before noon!! Needless to say, I wasn't in the best mood! I knew that a new computer was in our near future, but it would have been nice if the old one would have lasted just a liiitttlle bit longer. After that mess, I headed to meet the girls for lunch at Pizza Cafe' (a glass of vino on the patio was in my near future.) We are planning a Benefit for David's mom who has breast cancer and decided to get together last minute to discuss our details in planning. Everything seems to be coming together nicely and I'm really looking forward to it!
Saturday night I decided that we needed to spend more money go out to dinner. Matt and I met Kyndall at Bossa Nova for a fantastic dinner and then I spent the rest of the night curled up in bed with a magazine. In case you all didn't know, I am most content when I am in bed (with the heating pad on my stomach...yes it's a disorder), reading a magazine, while my handsome husband watches SportCenter. Some might say that I spend more money than the average American on US Weekly, People and In Style, but it's my guilty pleasure :))
Sunday we enjoyed a wonderful morning at church and Bible class and then randomly Matt and I decided to go to Texas Roadhouse for lunch. I was a little hesitant, as it is a chain that I am not familiar with, but it turned out to be REALLY good. This evening we went to the Fountain to celebrate Peter Webre's 28th birthday!! Here is a glimpse of the cookie cake we had made for him.
Oh....good times!!! Peter is a good friend and we were thrilled to be able to get a huge crew together to celebrate for a little bit. I have to post a couple of pictures that made me smile tonight.
My very good friend Amanda sent me this picture of she and my sweet Emma Grace. I love it because this is such an "Emma face" - the lip stuck out...she is checking this girl out!! I love you Amanda for sending this to me!!! If you can give some sweet kisses to my precious nieces while I am away, I appreciate it!!!

This picture is the screen saver on my phone! Not only is Miss Brynlee the cutest thing in the world, but it makes me so excited for all the weekends we will be spending on the lake!! (Love her new swimsuit Brandi... and Mom, have you bought the new pontoon yet!?!) I love this sweet girl!!! Matt and I are more than ready to be making MANY trips to NWA to spend on the lake this summer!!!
One more thing...I am in the middle of planning Matt's big graduation shindig here in Little Rock and I am super excited about how the invites turned out. A big THANK YOU to "By Invitation Only" for making these perfect!!!
Oh, it's going to be a FABULOUS time!!!! We are down to T-minus 46 days until
HAWAII!!!!
Hawaii??? Jealous! I am sure you will soak up every luxery! Those Garner grandkids are precious! Brinlee sat and listened to me read books the entire time! She danced, sang and was just perfect! Emma Grace did not want to dance..she doesn't appreciate my dancing moves! Good times!
