~My Weekend~

So, I have to tell a funny thing about my husband... These last couple weeks he has been all into fishing in the creek by our house. So he's got the fishing line and all of that stuff, well on Friday of this last week, he was down by the creek and texting me. Yup, you guessed it, he dropped the phone... only to see it fall within inches of the creek. So he manuvers down the hill do get it, and slips and falls... only to land on the phone with his foot therefore, shoving the phone into mud, and water. By the way, he fell all the way in the creek, it came up to his waist. :) Isn't that hilarious? Not really that funny, when you have to pay 50.00 for a replacement phone... :)

Onto the good stuff... We woke up Saturday morning, and went to an auction! We had great fun there... Then, one thing that Phil and I enjoy doing is just driving. It was a beautiful day, so we had the windows down, and were just talking. And enjoying being together... Here was the view... this is the very far away look at the Smoky Mountains.

So not really realizing it, we ended up in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg and there we went to the new Bass Pro Shop. Here are some pics from that... I love how they have all the real animals that have been stuffed. This bear is huge, this is the view from the second floor.

And this is me with the huge Moose! this thing was huge, and Phil enjoyed pretending to pick his nose. I wanted to get a picture but for some reason he wouldn't let me...

And finally, Sunday night we had our church service out at the camp. The picture is blurry, I'm sorry... but you get the idea! (That is Bob & Kelly (Chamberlain)Radank and Julie Alcorn who's backs you see)It was great fun, and we had a beautiful day for it. Afterwards we went to Applebees for thier amazing Blondie... mmm... so good.

So this is what I did on my wekend. I'm so thankful that I got to see my husband! God blessed us with some great "together" time this weekend... now back to reality! To work and to interums!

Opey & Renee Rowell

This is my brother, and his wife Renee... aren't they sweet?
Opey is prolly one of the most encouraging people in our life right now. He gives awesome hugs. He's great friends with Phil, although they never get to spend time together. :) They have the same favorite hobby, golfing. And Renee and I have the same favorite hobby, SHOPPING!!! Just ask our husbands! I also love it that they come and visit us. In competition with my mom, they have came and visited us the most. You guys have no idea what an encouragement that is.
If you are around them for any period of time, this is what you will see. They love to smooch. And you could record it, it's so loud. :) They taught Phil and I all we know ;) I learned alot while chaperoning!
Here is Renee being herself...
And Opey... "Hey babe, do you think I'm a hottie now?" And in honor of Opey, here is a tribute to his favorite restraunt... one of the reasons he comes to visit so often!!! :)
~~I hope you guys know how much Phil and I love you! We can't wait to see you!~~

Goodbye, Chris.

Yes, the sadest thing happened last night... The hottest guy that has ever been on AI is gone... Chris Daughtry was voted off of American Idol. This is seriously the worst day in the history of American Idol. In memory of Chris... here is some pictures of us to remember him by. Meghan and I will mourn this loss for a long time... lol My vote is now on Taylor!!!
