Snow and Love

This past weekend was full of love and snow! I can not believe that Jackson, Ms got about 5 inches of snow!!! It looked like a winter wonderland- school was cancelled so Bo and I got to enjoy the snow with who else but our hound dogs!!


Friday we left the snow and headed to the beach for a beach Valentine's Day with Kerri and Jonathan! It was so relaxing! We ate some good fried shrimp the first night and then Saturday night we had reservations to Cobalt which was DELICIOUS- I had crab and parmesan stuffed baby portabello mushrooms for an appetizer, an amazing salad with homemade dressing, flounder stuffed with lobster and orzo with almond and feta green beans, and a smores cake for dessert- and an amazing wine!! On saturday the boys also surprised us with flowers delivered to the house- awwwww!

The amazing beach house!!!!

Kerri's Flowers!

My flowers!

Bo, I love you and I am glad that you are my Valentine!!!!!!!!

A picture update

Well, I have to say that I have been meaning to post all my Christmas and New Year's pics but I read all my friends blogs and they are all such good writers that I kinda get down on my blogging skills, mostly I do pics and explanations so here they are....... and i just got back my camera- i left my camera in tupelo so these are from the holidays......

The day I got out for Christmas break Bo and I took a trip to New Orleans for the weekend...

We stayed at The Roosevelt Hotel which was so beautiful and decorated so festive! The first thing that I did when we got into the hotel room was open the mini bar and saw a jar of jelly beans- which I love so much so...I reached to grab them and Bo shouted out, "NOOOOO!" and I was like, "What??" I had no idea that once you picked something up it automatically charges your room no matter if you put it back where it was so... we owed 12 DOLLARS for a SMALL jar of jelly beans! But, they were good!


We walked around the French Quarter!

We did a few quarter slots at the big casino but I can't stand losing money!

We had breakfast at Cafe Du Monde!

We went to the aquarium!!

We ate at the Napoleon House, Nacho Mamas on Magazine St., this was our dessert at the Sazerac Restaurant in our hotel!Mr. Jimmy and Charlotte!

Grandaddy, Me, Lollie, and BoAnnual College Christmas Swap!

A few days after Christmas we went to Mountainview, Arkansas with two of our best friends, McLeod and Jason. The cabin was Jason's grandmother's and it was the perfect getaway- his grandmother's rule is no T.V. so we played games, laughed, cooked, went to the little mountain town and made the best memories!

Trying the chilli!

We cooked Ebble Skivers- they are so fun and neat- they originated in some other country- can't think of it- anyway you can fill these little pancakes with anything- vanilla cream, strawberries, jelly, or we used sausage- so good with syrup!!!

In the town of Mountainview- we ate at an old soda shop and walked in all the antique shops- i found an old Julia Child's cookbook!

Happy Christmas Things

Just the fact that the month is December makes me so so happy! I am especially happy right now because I finished my last group of tests for awhile!!!!!! Bo thought something was wrong with me because I was walking around smiling and singing for no reason at all and it is because I was so sick of studying I thought I might die if I had to do it for one more day- not really, but.... I don't talk about school much on my blog because I rather talk about happy things such as......

It SNOWED in MISSISSIPPI!!!!!

My three Favorite Christmas Ornaments this year! A tooth of course, a bassett hound because I buy every bassett hound ornament I see, and a piece of strawberry cake from the Belhaven Garden Club ornament swap!

The Belhaven Singing Christmas Tree! It is the 77th annual singing tree and is recognized as the oldest live singing christmas tree in America. This is the second year that Bo, Kerri, Jonathan, and I have gone- it just puts you in the christmas spirit- we bundled up and took hot apple cider! It is at the soccer field at Belhaven and you have to go down a big hill to get down there and Jonathan had trouble coming back up the hill!!!!





My Mantle and of course my Bassett Hound stocking!!!

30 people from our Sunday School Class all went to Sal and Mookies for a Christmas get together so fun- we were supposed to dress christmasy- I found these five dollar t-shirts at WalMart with a huge santa head that says Believe- hilarious!!!
