"A City of Dreams"....


Kayla & Taylor....


BHS Prom 2011....


Kayla started her day off decorating the hotel for Prom. Mother Nature had other plans for a lot of people that day, so after an hour they were dismissed to head out. Kayla picked up her dress and headed home. She commented on how all the girls had their hair in ponytails and no make-up on....including herself. They had a day of getting beautified ahead of them. Kayla had her manicure & pedicure yesterday so we only had her hair and makeup to do. Her hair appointment was at 2:30 & by the time we were ready to leave there I had to pull the car to the door & hand her the umbrella. We then picked Taylor up & headed back to our house to finish getting Kayla ready. At that point we were under yet another tornado warning....so we all headed to the basement.


I had a really hard time letting Kayla & Taylor leave in that weather but the warning had been lifted & Prom was still taking place. They left, made a stop at a friends to have pics made, went to dinner then to the President's Mansion for more pics. With Kayla being Jr. Class President she was in lead out and had to be there at 7:15. From what I hear 4 tornadoes touched down in Tuscaloosa today. Thank God no one was hurt....the kids had a blast.


Of course I cried....she was gorgeous.

Addie Mae Mae....

We babysat Addie this evening so her Mom & Dad could get a sense of what the outside world was with just the 2 of them. We ordered dinner from a local restaurant and you can see what Addie's preference was. She showed that corn-on-the-cob no mercy! Precious!

Olive Garden....


Our family has F.N.D. every week, since it was Kayla's birthday week she picked Olive Garden. Yes, it was her second birthday dinner of the week. Her friend Jeanie and her baby Eric joined us; as did Kayla's baby that she had for the weekend thanks to her Child Development course. I think it will be a long time before Kayla is ready to take on a baby of her own. This baby girl showed no mercy on Kayla....had her up 5-7 times each night. Would cry going down the road needing her diaper changed, etc. You know, things babies do. She was so ready for 7 a.m. on Monday morning to get here. Nothing like her "egg" baby she had to take care of a few weeks back. Addie could not get enough of sweet baby Eric & got her feelings hurt when dinner was served & she had to eat. :-(
