Thanksgiving 2011

We always have a "photo fest" every time we go down to Louisiana! I'm so glad my cousin Alysia and her family got to come over!! We don't get to see them very often, but we had fun! Just felt bad that she didn't feel good. Love you cuz! Can't wait to see you again!

I also got to go out with my friend Gus while I was there...for some reason I didn't take a picture. But we had a great time! Laughing, talking, hanging out! Had a lot of fun! I was also able to go to church with him as well, his church family is awesome! It was so great meeting yall!

Before we left Louisiana, we had to have one last photo op with Granddaddy! I was so sad to leave! Sad to leave my family. Sad to leave the South. I miss it.

Thanksgiving: Surprise 40th!

So, while we were in Louisiana, my sister and I threw a surprise 40th birthday party for our cousin Sherri! Robyn and I love doing parties and love doing parties together, so it was the perfect opportunity! Happy Birthday Sherri! Hope you had a wonderful day!

Thanksgiving: Fun at Granddaddy's!

We always have the greatest times at Granddaddy's house! I love hearing him walk around the house saying, "I love all my babies", "You know what? You're one of my favorites!", "I love all these pretty women in my house!", "Good night sweethearts.", "I love having all my babies here!" He's such a sweet Granddaddy! Oh how I wish we lived closer to him!!

This is such a typical picture of him. Working in the shed.

Thanksgiving: Fun on the Boardwalk

A week in Louisiana was way too much fun, but not near long enough! One night we spent with my cousins and uncle from Mom's side of the family! We had a BLAST! We went to the Louisiana Boardwalk...and it may not have been the same by the time we left! LOL

I love walking around down here!
