So my good ol' high school friend Scruggs (aka.. Angela) came down to Georgia for a quick visit this past weekend. She and her four kids, who are very well behaved I might add, came and spent the night. The significance of this post is that they were our first official house guests since moving here. It had been 4 years since we'd last seen each other even though we only lived an hour apart when we were in Maryland. So sad. Anyway, she just couldn't stand being any further away from me, so she up and made the drive just for me. Well, really her husband had to work and I guess she made time to see a few other old friends as well :). It was so great to catch up and talk about our good ol' Highland Ram days. Our kids played really well together and had fun until the sleep deprivation kicked in on Saturday afternoon. I would like to say we took them out on the town and showed them all that Augusta has to offer, but we didn't and we've yet to find out what Augusta has to offer ourselves :) It was a fun visit. Thanks for making the drive Ang and hope to see you guys again soon! For all our friends and family out there, our home is always open to you. Yes, I've resorted to begging for more visitors.
Our little rugrats minus two of them. Aren't they so cute?
Yeah! Our daddy came back! We are enjoying our last few weeks with him until he leaves again.
A few weeks ago as I was unpacking boxes and trying to organize my closet, Abby saw my wedding dress and wanted to try in on. She was in heaven. She asked me if she could wear it when she got married. So cute. The thing is filthy and I never cleaned it after my wedding day walking through dirt and grass for photos. I don't even know if the stains would come out 8 years later, but she didn't mind.
My blushing child bride.

i love that she wants to wear your wedding dress!
Awwww, it was so nice to see new pictures, I miss you! You're an awesome mom to let Abby wear your wedding dress--and ditto on not cleaning my wedding dress. I should take it out sometime and see the damage. And put it on Alora--I'll take photos if I do.
I can't believe how kind of well that dress fits her! You should post a picture of you in the dress so we can compare! She looks so cute!
I wanna come visit! I'm workin on it! Those pictures are cute, especially the one with Perry and the kids...they love their dad!
That cracks me up! Abby is so adorable! I, too, have resorted to begging for visitors. :)
I would totally come and visit you, if it didn't require a small fortune.
We would love to come visit you someday =) I am glad you had a good time and the pics are really cute. You look gorgeous as usual. Abby is so cute in your dress!
Awww thanks Sarah, We had so much fun at your house. Perry's crepes were worth the trip alone. Peter was sad he missed you. Thanks Again
Is Abby old enough to get married? We're concerned that your not making the best decision.
She looks adorable in your dress! And yeah for your new house.
Oh, Steve will be in Georgia for a week before he deploys, Fort Benning, I think. Is that near you?
Nope, we at at Ft. Gordon in Augusta
1st) Japan is right hand drive cars, left side driving. It's wacky! 2) we plan on buying a car, we just can't find one yet! 3rd)100 yen stores are sooo much better than dollar stores. I guess the toys are the same calibur, but my friend got an entire set of dishes for about $27, four place settings. It's way awesome.
That's so great you and Angela got to spend the weekend together! (HI Scruggs - from Lisa, in case you read this). You need to get your dress cleaned that would be so cute if Abby wore it. But wouldn't it be funny if by the time our kids get married our style of wedding dresses are totally hideous?
I wanna come! I wonder how many hours it is from Houston...I'm going to check right now!
Oh my gosh! I've never washed my wedding gown either! It is soooo dirty and every time we move, we say "we need to have this cleaned" and still we never have....We so wish we could visit you in Georgia! Abby's first day of school pic was adorable- two kids in school isn't it crazy!?!
Hello???? You haven't posted in four days!! Oh, you don't have anything to post about? okay... I TAGGED YOU!! Isn't that nice of me? You can thank me later. Good thing you love me, huh.
