Tuesday Talk

Blakely and I are already in bed, on this chilly, windy, Tuesday night. Here comes the freezing weather again I guess. We're ready for Idol!

I'm listening to Lady Antebellum, because their second cd, Need You Know, came out today! Sweet Southern Country...love it!


So, I have a new favorite author and a new favorite snack. I've been reading some books about the low country..my personal favorite, by Dorothea Benton Frank. There's nothing like reading about the gorgeous Carolina coast, while in the middle of January. I've read Sullivan's Island, Return to Sullivan's Island, and now I'm just a few chapters into Bulls Island. There are several more books I'm going to have to check out by her soon.


Ever since I saw the ice cream freezer at The Dollar Tree yesterday full of Drumstick's, I've been wanting one, badly! I improvised today since it is obviously too cold to go out for ice cream. I had leftover waffle cones from an activity that I did with my kids, so I put frozen cool whip in one. YUM! You should try it! It was plain and simple, but really good.

Here is Matty holding my new favorite creation.


Speaking of Matty. He is at a fancy, schmancy restaurant downtown tonight...a business dinner. Our neighbors own it, the name of it is Liam's, if you're ever in the SGA area. Matt is not looking forward to it at all, he hates to miss pj's and tv. JUST KIDDING. He is so excited about the dinner, he looked mighty handsome in his suit too!


So, I have to at least share one story about my kiddos. You never know what they are going to do or say next, but today on the playground I kept on hearing a hideous sounding howl. I knew it was my MG and Ry, and thought they were playing dogs or something. Turns out they were playing WEREWOLVES and VAMPIRES! Umm, Twilight anyone? They had lots of details to share about their crazy game. I had fun e-mailing their mama's about their crazy antics (both of their mama's are teachers..one at the high school and one at the 3rd and 4th grade school). Of course they reminded me of Edward and Jacob.


Also, my MG blessed us with her gorgeous singing most of the day too. Want to know what she was singing? "Cheeseburger in Paradise" by Buffet! In all fairness, she got to eat there after they saw Annie at the Fox in Atlanta. It's just been stuck in her head for a week. Never a dull day in our room! I LOVE my job!


That's all for my Tuesday Talk :)

Psalm 40:1-3 (The Message)
I waited and waited and waited for God. At last he looked; finally he listened. He lifted me out of the ditch, pulled me from deep mud. he stood me up on a solid rock to make sure I wouldn't slip. He taught me how to sing the latest God-song, a praise song to our God.
