Birthday/Thanksgiving weekend revised with pics
















Wow, I feel like I haven't been able to blog in forever! I was off of work all last week busy busy getting my house ready for my training show jewelry party. The party turned out great and was a huge success! By the time the party rolled around, all the time I spent on getting my house ready was kind of pointless with a 2 year old. I have my first home show this coming weekend and hope I do as good of a job as Mrs. Sue (my mentor) does.
Parker's birthday was on Thanksgiving day this year and was a busy day. We got up early that morning and headed over to Pawpaw and Mimi's house to visit for a bit since they would not be at Thanksgiving lunch. Parker loves going to visit them and his uncle Adam always has a toy to give him. Once we left there we headed over to Danny's Uncle Larry and Aunt Renee's house for lunch. It was good to visit with everyone. Once we got finished eating and visiting we headed to my Aunt Bonnie's. When we got there Parker had been asleep so he was very "shy" at first. Once he woke up a little he opened presents and we all ate some cake to celebrate his birthday. He loved all of his toys he got through out the day. I think he was loving getting presents at each stop we made that day! Later we all ate and watched the Saints game. Once that was over and we all felt like we were going to have a heart attack from the game, we decided to head home. Danny had told a his friend Doug he would go to Toys R Us with him that night to get his little girl's swing set. They opened at 10 PM. So when we got home Danny head up there to meet him. The line was wrapped around the restaurant that is behind Toys R Us. It had started raining by the time they got there and had cooled off drastically! Once they finally got inside Doug picked up the last voucher for the swing set he went in after and a mini trampoline. Once they stood in the line for about two hours to check out the cashier told Doug they were out of swing sets and mini trampolines...even though he had a voucher. He was not very happy..but there wasn't much he could do about it unfortunately.
Friday we didn't do a whole lot. Teresa and Kelly got in to town and we went to meet them for an early dinner, since Danny was going to a football game that night. Once we got done with dinner, Teresa and Kelly came back to our house to play with Parker until he went to bed. On Saturday I was getting everything ready for the party on the inside and Danny worked on the outside. Danny and Kelly didn't care to stay for the jewelry party so they decided to go eat and took Parker to get him out of the house. The party was fun and a success.
After the party we went to eat (Teresa and I ate) then took Parker to the hotel to stay with Teresa and Kelly. Danny and I has plans with some friends. Sunday morning we went to get P and say bye to Teresa and Kelly. The rest of the day we just relaxed. I am glad to be back in routine this morning!
Thanks to everyone for Parker's birthday presents and for those who came and/or ordered jewelry for my first party!
