A FUN weekend

Look who got a hair cut. Isn't he so cute? :)I had a great weekend. Yes, I am just now getting around to posting about it. I was off yesterday so technically today is my Monday.

Friday night we went over to Todd's cousins house for their little boys birthday party. He was turning 2. They had a nice family party for him. We always enjoy family birthday parties. My precious niece was able to come also, so I able to enjoy lots of time with her.

On Saturday my mom and her good friend came to Lufkin for the day. We had a fun day full of shopping, eating and showing her friend around Lufkin. We went to one of my favorite stores Belk. They were having a huge sale. I got a dress, a shirt, and a cardigan for only 22 dollars. Now that's what I call a bargain. I was so excited. Ya'll know I love to shop, and especially love to shop a good sale. We met Todd at Logan's that afternoon and had a yummy lunch. I love their Kickin Chicken Salad. If you have a Logan's and never tried that salad, you need too. I promise you wont regret ordering it. It is so good.

This cute white blouse was only $6.99
I love these dresses for spring and summer. Its all I wear. It was only $8.99
This cute cardigan was $6.99

I was on call Sunday and had to go in that morning for a few cases but was still able to make it to church at 11. Our minister Randy gave a wonderful sermon on salvation. It really opened my eyes. He never ceases to amaze me when he preaches. I had to go back in to work that afternoon and worked until about 7. It wasn't too bad of a day and at least I got a little bit of overtime. I had cooked poppy seed chicken last Sunday for dinner and since we had so much left over I froze it and just reheated it this Sunday. It was just as delish as the week before. You gotta love comfort food.

On Monday I was off since I was on call for the weekend. I wanted to sleep in so badly but I had to go to Tyler to take my car in for a recall. My friend Kristin went with me and we were able to meet up with Kelly and some other friends for lunch, so that was fun. Sadly I did not get a picture. :(

Our weather here in East Texas has been so crazy. On Saturday it was in the upper 60s and lower 70s. I was burning up being outside. It made me want to put on a swim suit and lay out and get a tan. haha. Today its in the 30s and snowing like crazy. It started snowing around 1 and its just starting to stick. Its always fun to watch the snow here since we hardly ever get it. They are saying it is supposed to snow all night, so we might wake up to another winter wonderland. Since its so cold outside I decided to cook chili tonight. I have never cooked chili before so wish me luck! I will let you know how it turns out.

PS: My phone is gone caput and I am waiting on my new blackberry to come in the mail in 1-2 days so if you have texted or called me I am not ignoring you I promise :)

Who says it doesn't SNOW in East Texas?

Sorry this picture is sideways. My hubby decided to write Merry Christmas in the snow.

Playing in the snow last night.

This morning we woke up to a WINTER WONDERLAND!! It started sleeting and then snowing around 9 last night. It was coming down so hard. We have never had this much snow in Lufkin. I have been here 7 years and never seen it like this. It has snowed the past couple of years at random times but never sticks or if it did stick it was gone by morning time. This morning every ones yards were covered. It was so pretty!!

Bentley was loving the snow, he kept begging to go back outside last night. He got up 3 times last night wanting outside. I think he just wanted to check if it was still snowing outside. haha

Of course I took tons of pictures. I mean this only happens once in a lifetime in East Texas. If only we had a few mountains so Todd and I could hit the slopes :) I miss skiing. We haven't been in 3 years. :(




What are your plans for Valentines Day? Todd and I are going to the Junior League Charity Ball tomorrow night which should be fun. A lot of friends will be going also. I promise lots of pics to come. This will be our first year to go. I hope everyone has a great weekend and stay warm!!

Happy Valentines Day!! <3 <3 <3
