Wings Over Meridian

Yesterday we drove over to Meridian to the Wings Over Meridian Show. We had a great day. It was kind of cloudy so the sun wasn't too much on us. The drive was great. The girls watched "Enchanted" and I got to catch up on my reading. The worst part was the traffic. We sat outside the Navy base for 1 1/2 hours and then had to walk about 2 mile to the front gate. The girl's were troopers. We got there just in time for the Blue Angels (which was the reason why we went in the first place.) They were awesome as usual. Here are some pics from the day....

I CAN SEE!!!

As many of you know, I had LASIK eye surgery yesterday! It was not the most comfortable procedure but less that 24 hours afterward, I can pretty much see perfectly. My vision is still a bit smoky but that should clear up soon. I'm posting some pictures of what I would love to do to my glasses that I've had to wear for the last 2 weeks. I would love nothing better to destroy them but I am donating them to the Lions Club International. For those who don't know anything about them, they collect old, used glasses and take them to other countries to give to the visually impaired. It's a wonderful program. I can't beleive that I've either worn glasses or contacts for 22 years! This will be a whole new world for me.

Tried a new recipe tonight! I thought it was fabulous! The kids loved it. Anyone who knows me well knows that I love to try new recipes. I also am a cookbook and magazine addict. I tear out recipes that I want to try, cut them up and paste into a binder labeled into food groups. Anytime I want to try something new, I have my cookbook for reference. I'll begin posting my faves. I do try to do something new at least once a week. I did make a fabulous taco recipe last week. I'll try to post it tomorrow. Have a great night!

Well it's now 44 degrees and falling! Mississippi weather just baffles me. Anyway, here I am in my p.j.'s waiting for my hubby to come in so we can go out to dinner. I had planned to try a new taco recipe but he's craving Fannin Mart and who am I to turn that down? Anyway, my new camera came in today. It's sooo cute! Here are a few test pics. The last one is for my parents. Gracie had to write about Grandparents at school and she wrote, "My grandparents are special because they take me to get ice cremi and they love." Isn't that sweet? I loved how she spelled Sonic (Sonick). That's always been a tradition with them.

What A Beautiful Weekend!

Well Spring has arrived in Mississippi (Until tomorrow- Spring severe storms and a high of 48???). But anyway, this weekend we are in the 70's. We spent all day outside yesterday and will do the same after church this morning. Here are a few pics I took of my girls (Gracie, Paige, and Gigi) yesterday. I've ordered a cutest little pink Nikon Coolpix so I can begin taking more family shots out and about. My only camera is my studio camera and it's so heavy and VALUABLE! I don't like to carry it everywhere. This one I can throw in my purse and take with me everywhere. I'll take some more shots today and post tonight.
