What a time!!

This was the most exciting weekend in a while!
I love my girls more than anything but I love when I get to see people I never see! This weekend so many wonderful friends came to town and I am so glad I was able to spend time with them!!
Friday some of my greatest friends Will and Bradley came into town for a show! I hadn't seen them in 10,000 years - probably since their wedding. Unfortunately I didn't have tickets to the show they were going to but we were able to catch up some before they left. Since I had plans on Friday night too, I was actually out about 30 minutes or so longer than they were, but when I got home we spent hours playing and laughing and talking! My throat was sore the next day!! I had such a great time with them, it was like no time had passed at all. I hate that they had to leave on Saturday, I was sad to see them go!! I am certain that this time there won't be near as much time in between visits.
On Saturday literally as Will and Bradley were leaving my cousin Landon and his friend Michael drove up. They had gone to Atlanta for a few days and stopped by to see me on their way home. We had lunch at one of my favorite places and then went to a local, natural store to get some random things for Landon (I did my shopping there a few weeks ago). They didn't stay too long as they had another 3 1/2 hours before their trip was over, but it was a nice visit! I hadn't seen Landon in a few months and really enjoyed his visit - even if it was short.
Luckily, I had enough time for a quick nap between Landon and Michael leaving and when I was meeting Lauren and Daniel. They were in town for a minute, supposed to be going to the mountains, but changed their plans after driving over 700 miles with their 14 month old - James. I was so glad to finally meet James!! I hadn't seen the Duffy's since Lauren was pregnant with James. He is too cute! I felt like I knew him already from seeing all the pictures and reading all about him in her blog, but I love him! It was so wonderful to catch up and laugh with everyone! It was just like old times.
I was supposed to meet Jack, Jessica and The Dude's new arrival, last week but had to cancel because of what may be a gallbladder problem. So Friday I talked with Chris and discussed coming by after work on Sunday. Since I actually got off "on time" (1230), I came straight over. Oh that Jack! He is precious! He is tiny!! Today should be his birthday but he will be one month old on Wednesday. I loved just holding him in my arms - he still has that new baby smell! (Seriously) Lauren, Daniel, and James came over while I was there which was even better because we were able to hang out even more and I got to play with James who just made me laugh and laugh! I can't wait to see them all again!!
The only bad thing about this weekend is that my good camera is gone and my other is broken....I have no pictures of any of this exciting weekend!

Lady,

I'm sorry that you are sad. I know he lived a long life and I know he was sick. I know you knew it was coming...but so soon? I wish I knew what to do for you. It's okay to let it out. It's okay to be sad. Don't feel like you have to be the strong one and hold everyone together. You don't. Everyone else will be okay, just like you will. Continue to watch over everyone but most of all watch out for yourself. He will do the same. I love you lady and am here for you. Please let me know what I can do to help.

(I'm sure I can make some sort of mean casserole....isn't that what you're supposed to do?)
