Fall Produce off and running.
Yes, the madness has officially began on the farm. The first 2 days have been typical with the window unit going out in the office on Sunday and then on Tuesday the rear-end in the truck went out on Bill as he was on his way to Thomasville to pick up some stickers that we have to put on all of the produce !! Had to call a wrecker to pick them up and bring them home!
Kylie & I cooked lunch for Winston, Cole & Bill today. We made taco salad. She got out some of my Tupperware, placed it on the counter and insisted that we take her "empty" containers also!
New Window Unit for the Office
Winston & I went off for the weekend again, arrived home early Sunday so we could get back to Central in time for class. Sunday night, Winston was trying to catch up on his watering....it was hot in his office so I just cranked down the window unit. Well about 2 hours later it was not working at all. Yes, I tore it up!!! Well, I got up bright & early Monday, took the old one back & they replaced it since it was still under warranty! I also ran a few more errands for Winston. It was pretty warm Monday & they got unit installed pretty quickly!!! I know he was thankful!
Bunny goes to Sunday School, as usual
I dropped Kylie off at Sunday school & went on to my class. Jerry & Laura McMullen are teaching this class. When I picked her up this is what she and her little bunny had….a paper for her & bunny.
Too Cute To Pass Up!
These were to cute to pass up, Kylie noticed the cupcake cookie jar immediately!
Night at Ponte Vedre
So pretty at night. Oh yes, they came in at night.....turned down your bedding...placed the robes, slippers, menus, etc. at the end of the bed and left chocolates on the night stand.....cleaned twice a day if you wanted....24 hour room service....man, it was the best! They also had doorbells, when I first heard the doorbell I thought it was on the tv! Thank-you to my hubby for such a fun week-end and to Bart & Casey for sharing this place with us!
Ponte Vedre Resort
This is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed. We had so much fun, we went back the next weekend! We met some of the nicest people, everyone was so friendly. Almost like Valdosta!
The fountain was huge and so pretty! The grounds were kept immaculate. Winston could walk right out back of the Inn & golf. He golfed with New Yorkers, lawyers & Doctors....young locals etc. They were all nice folks and had lots of questions about his farming operation! I decided I would just do some shopping. On Friday, we stopped by the Avenues Mall on the way there. They have a huge Belks......I was amazed & a little bit irritated that ours is so small! We found some great bargains for Cole & Winston. I found the Vera Bradley store & had a blast in there.
Didn't stay to long on Friday, but Saturday.....while WB golfed, I shopped....10-5! We had great food at most of our meals. We shared many laughs & got to enjoy each other before the fall produce kicks in on Monday.
Wedding Day
Oh Boy, it is finally over!!! I must say... I did enjoy most of the preparation for the wedding. As difficult as planning a wedding is.....all in all .....it was a great time. Bart & Casey thought they would get married next April. That was the plan to begin with, but Bart decided he just could not wait to begin this new life with Casey & Kylie. He asked if they had to wait until next April, I thought, well... no you don't....all you need is the photographer, minister and location! It happened to work out for the 5th of September. Heirs Lodge was the location. I am still running on adrenaline! Let's just say that the fireworks were hot at the wedding, so hot we even had a fire!!! More details later!!! So funny & only would happen to us!
Wedding
We are so excited for Bart, Casey & Kylie! But are so busy with this wedding that I feel bad for Kylie! Today we went to chicken filet & I actually took the time to go inside & let her play. She loved it & I am so glad I stopped for a bit & enjoyed just her!
Happy 19th to Cayla
Well, with all the excitement of the wedding, this little one's...(who thinks she is grown LOL) birthday just flew by! No we did not forget, we all gathered at Texas Road House & wished her a Happy 19th Birthday!!! This is our caboose & she is 19....oh my, where did the time go??? Cayla was born August 22, 1990 at 9:35 am. She weighed 7 lbs 13.2 ozs. & was 20 inches long....almost as big as her brother! She arrived via c-section, just as the first two! I remember this being the only pregnancy that I actually had my suitcase with! I was anxious needless to say. We had to arrive after 12:00 that night & then they were kind enough to let us wait another 45 minutes or so before they came & took us up to the room! Then, the fun begins, keep you up all morning, poking you for lab work & taking you blood pressure! I stayed awake through all of my childrens births....I carried the little things for 42 weeks & I was going to be one of the first to see the little ones! Winston came in with me this time for the surgery. (Just to sit by my head & pay attention in case my blood pressure dropped as it did one time before.... it seemed like they were all to busy to notice!) Ha! He & Dr. Smith talked about the Ga bulldogs the whole time & the parking problem at the hospital. I am like...o:k... someone is here having a baby!!! Hello!!! After the doc cut through a couple layers of skin....sorry, I know, I know, it is gross, but...as he was about to cut again, with the laser of course, she popped her head right on up out of my stomach.....& let out a scream. I think she kind of scared the doc!!! He said, did you see that....she is ready to get out of there. He told her to wait just a minute & he would get her out, then he said...she looks like her momma. Winston cut the cord & handed her over to the nurse & then asked us one more time, if we were sure this was to be the last one. We said, yes. He then said...good, because we are lucky we got this one here healthy, your uterus wall is like tissue paper & you would not be able to carry any more. Our family was complete with number three.....Happy Birthday Cayla, hope you had a great day & hope you enjoyed this remembrance of your special day! We Love You!
