Women's Conference and Corn Mazes.

Last weekend, my mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I headed to Stevenson, AL for a women's conference. My other sister-in-law, Anna's, sister, Laura was the speaker. We met Anna there. Her and G were headed back from a relaxing week at the beach. Friday, after I got off school, we loaded up and headed to AL. We stopped in Corinth for dinner and made it about 10pm. Saturday morning we woke up and headed to the conference. Laura did SOO good. She was so real and passionate in her teaching. It was contagious.  I know Anna was so proud of her sister! I was thankful to get to spend sometime with the girls. Looking forward to more weekends like this in the future!




After the past two weekends, I needed a low key weekend. Not that they were not wonderful, because they most certainly were, but they were nonstop. So this weekend was devoted to just Landon and I. Last night, we stayed around the house. We played cornhole, walked around the neighborhood with Piper, grilled out, and ate outside.  It was a beautiful night last!!

 Today we cleaned the house (yay :/)   and got out of Tunica. We headed to Southaven to run some errands then to Memphis for a date night. We ate burgers at Red Robin then spent an hour walking around the Corn Maze. Afterwards, we headed to starbucks for some coffee.




It may sound like a boring weekend to some, but not to me. My love language is quality time, so I just enjoy spending time with my man (especially outside!)


New Orleans Weekend

The past couple of weekends (shoot, weeks.) have been B-U-S-Y. Good, but busy. I have to start off by saying, I feel like my friends and father would be completely disappointed in me. I used to take pictures all the time. Seriously, it was annoying. However, the older I have gotten the less I take pictures. I need to work on that. So sorry for the lack of assortment of pictures.

Labor day weekend Landon and I headed down to New Orleans to visit some friends of ours. That Friday, at school, we had tacky day so here ya go...



I did change out of my tackiness before the 7 hour drive to NOLA.

Most of the drive down there was good: music and conversation. However, about 2 hours outside of NOLA Landon started having an allergic reaction to we still don't even know what. Thankfully my mom is a nurse so I called her and she walked me through some things we could do to help him. It didn't get bad enough that we had to take him to the hospital, but it was still very miserable for him. Thank God for Benadryl. Literally.

While we were in New Orleans, we stayed pretty low key with JDub and Amber. We got to see their world at seminary and ate out ALOT... check this out...

Those pancakes are literally the size of pizza's. They were so good.




Saturday, after that gigantic  meal for breakfast, we got to see some old friends from Olive Branch, Hal and Julie Stewart along with their children. They just recently moved there for Hal to teach at the seminary. It was so good to catch up with them.

After the visit, we went back to the Warren's apartment and the boys watched MSU football while the girls talked deeply about spiritual matters and how to solve the world's food crisis..... just kidding, we slept. for like 3.hours. It was glorious. 

Sunday we went to church and then spent most the day at the apartment watching recent episodes of Parks and Rec. That night we played The Office trivia game.. twice. It was alot of fun with lots of laughs.



Sadly, this is the only pictures I got of Landon and JDub


Thanks JDub and Amber for letting us crash at your apartment for the weekend and showing us your world! We had so much fun!
