Old Friends, Nephews, Dinner, and Dancing…

Last weekend we spent a couple of days in Jackson. We had the best time! Friday night by the time we got there we just ate soup at the house and went to bed early. We both had had colds earlier in the week so we wanted to rest.

We got up Saturday morning and went to a running store. I’ll post more on that later. Afterwards I met my friend from college, Jess Ladd. I love Jess and had missed her SO much!! It had been too long!! We met at the mall and shopped around for a bit then went to lunch at Cup ‘n Cork downtown Cape. It was fun to drive around and see things from our glory days. ha! We could have talked for two days straight!! We went to Hobby Lobby, Target, and TJ Maxx and then she headed back to St. Louis. I was so glad she came down! She even brought me 4 LARGE bags of her Mom’s famous popcorn!!!!!!!! Thanks Jess, love ya!

After Jess left I headed to Jackson to see Drew & Drake. Drew continues to get taller and maybe even skinnier and Drake is his same ole chubby self and I LOVE IT!!!! He was in a good mood and I got several pictures of him. Drew is the hard one to capture on film. I have two really cute nephews!! This picture is dark!

Saturday night we went to the 3rd Annual Red & Black Affair, which was a fundraiser for the Jackson School Foundation. It was a lot of fun, just a little loud when trying to talk to people. They had one of the local bands playing, Mid Life Crisis, and they are so good. Kody and I love to hear them. They even did a couple of Adele songs and they were SOOO good! I saw lots of old family friends and got to visit with a lot of people and family. Kody enjoyed seeing people from high school. It was a good night! Poor guy lost his voice though half way into the night so it was nearly impossible to hear him with the band playing. We got home a little after midnight and were both off to bed!

Sunday we got home and hung around the house for awhile and then went to lunch with John, Teresa, Grandma and Marion. We stopped by to tell Drew & Drake bye and then headed home.

We got home about 5 and headed to the Skeeters’ house about 6:30 to help Jay with some trim in their kitchen. As soon as we walked in the doors both boys started running towards us doing their best to say our names! Precious! I played with Jen , Paige, Drew and Luke while the guys worked. Fun ending to the weekend!
