My sister in law just made me laugh out loud! When we were in Florida last week, she and I were laughing one day because we were talking about driving around in high school, listening to Shania Twain....guys can't do it. And I can't do it for too long...but I have many memories of driving around with my friends, blaring it and singing it at the top of our lungs. Just something that made us laugh! So Erin treated me this morning to a voice mail and serenaded me! A great start to my morning! hah!
We had a great trip to Florida. I'm pretty pressed for time this morning, so not a lot of time to go into detail, but I can pretty much sum it up to say I love my family and my niece, Hope is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Enjoy my pictures and have a wonderful fabulous chilly day! :-)

I just got the update that Baby Rachel Avery Warnock was born this morning about 1:30am. I don't have any pictures or more info yet, but I am so excited for Stephen & Tandra!!
Also, another one of our friends- Abbie O'Neal is currently in labor at Baptist Hospital in Nashville with their first baby. So, we're praying for health for baby and momma in that birth, too!

I guess I have quite a lot to blog about. Last weekend was a fun one! Jordan and I went to see Janel play in her powder puff game, which unfortunately, despite a lot of hard work and a lot of spirit, they lost to the juniors, but it was still a good time! 
Jordan and I had a dr's appointment after that- and then the rest of the afternoon was spent setting up for the Spring Hill Country Ham Festival. New Song sponsored a "farmer for a day" booth where kids came through and got to do all sorts of fun "farm-themed" things. As you can see- the youth AND youth leaders had a good time setting up! 
Friday night, Jordan and I went to the game and had a great time watching IHS beat whoever they were playing...haha! We all went to bed and crashed- big day on Saturday. Saturday we woke up, all had breakfast together and then helped the girls get where they needed to go for homecoming. I made it over to take some pictures of Janel and her friends before they took off- and to help them with last minute getting ready...a flurry of hair spray, curling irons, mascara and bobby pins, but they got it all done and made it in time! 
Jordan and I took off for U-turn on Saturday night. It was a GREAT night, despite a really weird game that we played....not quite sure what to think of it....there is no noise, but here's a sample of what it looked like....
And then Sunday was full of friends, worship, teaching, fellowship, rest, football and fun! We finished off the evening (Jordan, Laurel and me) watching Iron Man- I LOVE THAT MOVIE! All in all- a GREAT weekend! On another note- I never posted my results of how I think the Grocery Game works and whether or not it's worth it. Here's what I came down to. The list itself that is published on the grocery game is not the MOST helpful for the types of things Jordan and I buy, so although the concept was very helpful, subscribing to the list wasn't the best for me. BUT- I did learn a lot through the 12 weeks of trying it about shopping sales, combining with them offers and coupons to get the best deal. So, here's what it looks like for me...I still shop on a "stockpiling" basis, so I am still looking to buy things when they are on sale rather than when I just NEED them. I check out the Publix, Kroger, CVS and Walgreens circulars each week, circle things on sale and go through my coupons to get the best deal. So far it's working great with each shopping trip averaging a 53% savings on every bill. It's become a challenge for me.....my favorite recently was a trip to Walgreens where I stocked up on 2 packs of Zicam cold medicine, 4 packages of duracell batteries, trident gum and sony CDrs for $25, when it would have been $65. That's exciting! :-)
So here's to saving!!!
Oh- and no news yet of Baby Rachel- we are anxiously awaiting!

It's Homecoming Week at Independance High School, where Janel & Laurel attend. If any of you remember Homecoming week, it consists of TONS of ways to show your school spirit, including dress up days. I LOVED this week in High school, and I always participated in the dress up days. The girls have been getting into it, and I loved their theme this year, which was "Decades." So, they started with 50's on Monday, 60's on Tuesday and then 70's and 80's. I didn't get to see the first two days because I was in Florida, but here they are dressed up in their 70's and 80's wear! I LOVE Laurel's shirt today....I might have to borrow that one!
