Weekend festivities

November 30, 2010

After our great Thanksgiving in Montgomery, we had a fun-filled weekend in Birmingham!  Saturday morning we had a visit from my college roommate Kristin and her little boy Lucas.  Kristin and I lived together at Vandy freshman, sophomore and senior years.  All those years ago I never thought that we would end up having baby boys within days of each other!  Lucas was born 9/9/10, just 10 days after Maxwell!  I’m so glad our little guys got to meet and hope they become life long friends like their moms!

Me with Lucas and Kristin with Maxwell.  Can you believe SHE has the red headed baby?!  🙂

A handful!  Thank goodness I don’t have twins!

Kristin and sweet Lucas…

Later that day we had a birthday party to go to!  About 6 months ago, I reconnected on Facebook with one of my good friends from summer camp only to find out she was moving to Birmingham!  Bette and I spent about 7 summers together starting around age 9 and wrote countless letters back and forth.  I can’t believe we have ended up in the same city all these years later and am so thankful to have an old friend around!!  Bette has a super cute little boy, Sam, and threw the most fantastic party for his first birthday.  The theme was “Sam I Am” and everything was all about Green Eggs and Ham!

The birthday boy…

All the cute decorations, including green deviled eggs!

Me and Bette…

Maxwell did great at the party and I’m so happy we were able to help Sam celebrate turning 1!

On Sunday we had a quick visit from two little pig-tailed girls…

Katie, Anna, Jenny and Ronnie stopped by for a minute on their way back to Montgomery.  It was great to see them!

That day I also I put on my favorite Kenny and Dolly Christmas CD (yep, that’s right, as in Rogers and Parton) and got all the Christmas decorations up!  Can’t wait to get our tree next weekend!

Ho Ho Ho!  Let the Christmas season begin!

Would love to hear from you! 6 Comments

    I am exhausted after such a long read; it was a fun weekend. Too bad it had to end!

    Whew! Full schedule for a weekend.
    This Dr. Seuss fan never did a Seuss birthday for my girls; can’t really believe that!!!! Did get to make a cat in the hat tall hat for one of them though. But am so glad to see the inventive spirit of the young!
    A belated happy thanksgiving to all from me. Know John got to talk.
