Happy Weekend Y'all!

I hope everyone's weekend is and will be relaxing and fun. I went to the doc yesterday about the incision. It is actually doing better!!! My pain is usually only at night. It's so beautiful and fallish here today. I went shopping this morning, had to buy some new dress pants as those are the first to get baggy and make me look frumpy. My new favorite thing this season is IVORY pants. I got some at Lane Bryant. I love them. They look so sophistocated hehe. DH is all about the football this weekend, so I am not sure what else I will be up to. I need to clean the house after being down for a week though! So...whatch doing? Rachael

Hi Rachael Glad to hear you are on the mend. Today we had a lazy morning, together with some tidying up of house and yard. The this afternoon I've been making Christmas cards and Ron & I have laid a new carpet in Millie's room - guarenteed arguments hee hee. We got through it and survived thank goodness Tomorrow church, then getting ready for going back to school / work on Monday. Have a great Sunday everyone Ruth

my first holiday session today was at 9:30 am, two parents, 3 kids under 6 years old. it was pretty good, took 2 hours, didnt get the 'family' one, but now I know better. my next session is at 400, two parents and two kids. I have got to get this nailed down. I have 10 sessions next saturday. drove out into the country and got a case of homemade jam for lunches (6 months supply) eating my steak for lunch like a good girl.

Hi Rachel Glad you feeling better. Our weekend has been quiet, so far.. Husband golfing, me getting the dogs to kennel and tomorrow driving to Chattanooga Tn.. {he has a board meeting/dinner Tuesday and pig roast Monday }.. I don't like the whole smile and pretend to like people , gives me a headache...LOL ....But he is also being talked to/given an offer on Thursday in Atlanta to become president and CEO of this company......Now what am I going to ware that fits!!!! Hmmmmm Jean

Hey Jean dress to impress, and knock their socks off. They'll be so busy looking at you (women jealous of you, men jealous of your hubbie) that they won't have time to do the social talk stuff, hee hee. Hope you and hubbie get the result you want, i.e hope he gets the offer if you want it! Let us know how it goes Ruth

Hi Ruth Thank you so much for your words of support Just got hooked back up to internet The "pig roast" was stressful with people first not recognizing me and then being bombarded with "where I would most like to live". The funny thing was my husband started getting snubbed when people thought he was with a new wife...LOL

Hey Rachael! I'm glad you're feeling better!! My very typical Saturday. So far I've done about 8 loads of laundry. Watched way to much kiddie TV - I know I know - mom of the year. But Katie usually gets lots of TV time Saturday morning because I have so much to get done with laundry cleaning - etc etc. i also made your crockpot alfredo today. We just got done eating it. I revamped it a bit (I just posted the revamped recipe) and made it less rich and it was yummy. I did the ranch packet like your hubby suggested and it was DELISH over rice. It doesn't take exactly like alfredo sauce...just a super good creamy chicken - it would be good over biscuits!!! My whole family loved it. Tomorrow we are taking Katie to the pumpkin patch. It should be PACKED and crazy - we wanted to go last weekend but it was SOOOOOO cold and windy!! We decided to brave the crowds tomorrow instead. I'm sure there will also be plenty of football thrown in there as well - as with any Sunday!!

A real pumpkin patch??? My husband would love to do that. He loves to celebrate all holidays as authentically as possible. Rach

Hey Rachael,Sooooo glad you are feeling better!!!Hopefully soon the pain at night will be all gone!!! I love fall!!!All the leaves are changing its so beautiful. We went to a local haunted corn maze Saturday night!!!It was lots of fun, they had a hay ride & a band from Nashville playing!!!They even had chili with cheese there, so I got some extra protein. We ate chili & listened to the band!!! Not much today just cleaning house doing laundry!!!We are going to carve our pumpkins this afternoon!!Then get ready for work & school on Monday. ~Missy~

Before I moved to Tennesee last fall, we lived in Indiana for a few years. They had corn mazes everywhere. They were awesome and cheap. We used to take the youth group there a lot. I loved doing it at night!!! Sounds like a fun weekend Rachael
