I Need Rest!

The Olympics are killing me!!! Why am I addicted to it and why does it come on so darn late??? I love love love Michael Phelps and Shawn Johnson!!! Michael Phelps is so amazing, bless his heart he isn't the least bit attractive but my goodness his athletic ability is so awesome! Shawn Johnson is AWESOME, I was a bit sad that she only got Silver but come on that means she is the second BEST gymnast in the world!!! She is only 4'9" and 85 lbs, I totally see that being McKinley one day!!!

I finished my last week of work, it was sad but I am so excited to start the new one on Monday!!! Sounds like I am going to be in training for the next 8 or 9 weeks... I heard it's about like school, at least I will getting paid while I sit there and learn!

Well my mom, Amanda, Kayla, McKinley and I are headed to get Pedicures, I will let ya know if anything good happens this weekend...

Homespun Fun!

Hey just got back from a great trip to the Smoky Mountains! Brian and I drove up with Kayla and McKinley, my parents came up as well. Not sure if I mentioned this but my parents bought a condo in Gatlinburg and after several months of gutting it, we finally get to use it. Friday we all went to Splash Country it was so much fun, it is great for kids and adults! While I was there, I found out that I got the job that was causing me so much anxiety wondering if I got it or not!!! I am so pumped... Ok back to the trip, Amanda and Dusty came up Friday night and Sat. we got up and went to Dollywood. If you have never been, then you have to go. I mean where else can you ride roller coasters, eat a bowl of beans and hear good ole hillbilly music!!!











When I was growing up, every summer we would go to Tennessee for vacation and I have very fond memories of going to Dollywood with all my extended family. I can just see my Papaw sitting on a bench telling us he is just waitin' for Dolly!!! Man I sure do miss him...


For the jellybean update (Amanda's baby) he or she is doing very well but making Manda very sick and very hateful. She is already growing out of her clothes but losing weight at the same time from being sick. Not sure how that works but oh well. We will find out what the little jellybean is gonna be sometime in Oct! Can't wait!!!
