Trip Home

I got the opportunity to go home for a few days this month. It was such a special time to get to see old friends, go to a wedding, and to spend some good time with my family. This is a picture of me with my nieces and nephew. The oldest is Gracie, she is 6 years old. Second is Annaliegh, who is 5 years old and the youngest is Samuel who will be 2 in November. I was able to spend the night with them for one night and went swimming with them one day. We had a great time together.
This is a picture of some of my closest friends. We all went out to Olive Garden to eat supper and had lots of laughs together. From left to right. First is Mary, Me, Elissa, Aubrey, Susannah, and Marie. It was GREAT to get to catch up with each other and just enjoy each others company. Girls, when I come home next time we will have to have another big party. Hopefully you will all be in A-town when I come back next time. Thanks for the fun time. Love you all!
This is my mom. Don't you think we look alike? These next two pictures are of our shopping trip to Charlotte. After she and my sisters picked me up at the Charlotte Airport, we went shopping for a day and then spent the night and then went at it again the next day. Thankfully we were shopping on the tax-free weekend! We had so much fun. This is actually a picture of us at supper Italian, my favorite. That night we had a good night, and lots of fun times making memories and just spending time together.
These are my sisters! From left to right is Melody, who is currently a sophomore at Covenant College on Lookout Mountain, GA. Then there is Susannah. She is the best beautician. If you ever need a great haircut, let me know and I can hook you up. Next is Mary Elisabeth. She is the oldest of all of us. She is married to a man named Tim, and is the mother to the three beautiful children pictured above. I had such a great time spending the weekend with all of you. Thanks to everyone for making my first trip home, after being away, a good one. Love you all!!!

Marie, How Fun!!! I never went to either one of those islands but I hear they are great. I can maybe ask some of my friends what is good to do on those islands.
