Soul Sisters

Julie is in my town this week...whoo hoo! She invited me to hang out with the pastor's wives on Monday and we were able to get a hug and a fun picture with our blog friend, Judy. She is the mother of the infamous, Kelly of Kelly's Korner. She was as genuine and sweet and she appears on her blog. We loved meeting you in person, Judy!

Julie invited me to a luncheon with all these ladies. It was fun to be apart of Julie's world for a bit. I know nothing about being a preachers wife other than watching my Meemaw and now my sister. I enjoyed getting to meet other women like my sister and understand her world a bit more. I love that she reads the Bible on her Kindle...only Julie!

Julie has such a heart for ministry. I loved listening to her share bits and pieces of her testimony to these women. She was so real, funny and loving. It made me so proud to call her mine!


Julie's Friend Lisa came from another state to speak to the ladies in this fine group. I loved meeting her in person. She was a lot of fun and such a delight to visit with. She came to my house to meet Henry before we took her back to the airport in Memphis. Henry is rather famous from this blog and my Facebook page. Bless it. I thought it was so cute when he went right to her, but cried when Juju tried to take him. So funny!

Having a few days to love on my sweet sister has been a blessing this week. I hate the Fab Four is not here with us, but I am getting over it...slowly! ha. Henry loves having his aunt and uncle all to himself and they are loving having their only nephew to themselves. It is fun times!

Ha! I wrote the post on my blog in a hurry this afternoon and just edited a few little details I realized I had left out. One was how excited I was that Henry came to me and now I'm reading you saying the same thing..lolol Definitely one of the highlights of my trip!

I loved hanging out with you girls so much. Just wish the time had been longer. Love you Sisters!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good p...

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu...
