Fishing

Uncle Jody bought Kaitlin her first fishing pole. She is very proud of her pink princess "Sishing" pole. Uncle Jody, Scott, and Granddaddy took Kaitlin to the pond one afternoon for her first fishing adventure. (I was still at work, so I didn't get to go.) Kaitlin didn't actually catch any on her pole, but she helped Uncle Jody reel his in. If you ask her how big that fish was, she'll open her arms as wide as she can. This, of course, is unrealistic....but very cute! Kaitlin loved getting to touch her first fish (GROSS!).

I spent last Saturday cleaning the house. By Saturday afternoon, I was determined I was going to get Kaitlin outside to enjoy the nice weather. I asked if she wanted to go fishing, and of couse she did. This time Scott, Granddaddy, and Gramby joined us. Kaitlin grew quickly bored with holding her pole, so Scott caught lots of fish of that pink princess pole! Kaitlin had a ball throwing sticks and rocks into the water. It entertained her so well that she didn't even care to reel in the fish on her line after the first couple. She just kept on throwing rocks and sticks. We caught several small bass and brim. Great times.

They Finally Met!

So you all know that Kaitlin is obsessed with Mickey Mouse. What does Kaitlin want to do every morning when she wakes up? Watch Mickey. What does Kaitlin like to do during the day? Watch Mickey. What does Kaitlin have to do before she will go to bed? You get the picture. She even wants to have a Mickey party for her next birthday. I'm having a hard time with that one since she had a Mickey party last year. When I told her to consider other kinds of parties she said, "Well, maybe I'll have a Goofy party." It looks like her love for Mickey and friends is not going anywhere fast.

I wanted to share a few pictures from our Disney World trip. These are of just a few of her autograph signings. She had so much fun meeting all the characters.

I love this picture below where she is showing such joy. We saw this smile all day long on the trip.

As you can see, Uncle Jody flew down during our trip to enjoy a couple of days at Disney. Kaitlin loved playing with him in Pooh's play area.

Kaitlin had a blast...Scott and I both admit that we had the time of our lives as well. We can't wait to go back.

Dancing Queen

We traveled to Memphis this weekend to attend the wedding of my cousin, Jessica, and Travis. There were about 20 of us that went from this area. The wedding was very beautiful. We had a good time, and we loved getting to see Jessica, Travis, and my Aunt Jeanette.


We really enjoyed the music of the band. Kaitlin's favorite part of the wedding was getting to dance! Kaitlin was too shy for the real dance floor, so we made our own. She had the BEST time cutting a rug, especially with her Uncle Ricky. It was so entertaining and precious how she enjoyed herself so much. Thanks, Uncle Ricky, for dancing with your girl. Look at what a great time they had.






Kaitlin also enjoyed eating cake with her Uncle Jody. She asked about cake the whole time during the wedding, so she was first in line when they cut it!

We went over to the Peabody Hotel hoping to see the ducks, but we just missed them. Here's a picture we got of the three of us in the Peabody.
