Visit to Valdosta

I graduated from high school 10 years ago!! Can you believe it? I for one can not! Time is just flying by! Because it has been ten years, it is time to begin planning the Lowndes High School Class of 2002 Ten Year Reunion!

In order to meet with some girls to start planning the reunion, Landon and I decided that we needed to take a weekend trip down to Valdosta. Poor Philip had to stay behind in Athens to write. He spent the whole weekend at the UGA library or Jittery Joes trying to focus and write! Have I said how happy we will all be when he is finished ?!!?

Landon and I left right after I got off school on Friday. He was so good in the car for our four and 1/2 hour drive to Valdosta (really Lake Park). It's always nerve-racking when Landon and I have to drive a long distance with just the two of us, but he only cried one time for about 2 minutes when he got really sleepy near Monticello. The rest of the time he played, slept, and talked to Mommy. I know Philip and I are very blessed with such a good traveler!

Saturday morning Landon went to spend some time with his BB while I planned for the class reunion. They had so much fun playing and playing! I had a great class reunion meeting and we got a lot planned! We opened up the planning meeting to all of our classmates (500+) people so anyone who wanted to help could and have some voice in the reunion. We were a little nervous that we would have too many people at the meeting and it would be tricky to set some plans. But we only had 6 people show up! Ha! The 6 people who did show up were amazing, and I think we will have a great class reunion! Of course, several other people have offered to help that couldn't attend the meeting, so we will have a great team of probably about 12 people getting our exciting weekend of events organized for our reunion in September!

 





 Landon and BB have so much fun together!












After the meeting, I went with Michelle, Anna, and my Mom to get a pedicure. I LOVE a pedicure!! I decided to get my toenails painted red with a lovely heart design for Valentine's Day. <3

  My lovely toes! :) Landon loves them!

After pedicures, Mom, Michelle, and I went to El Toreo's ( a favorite Valdosta Mexican restaurant!) and to see Michelle and Trent's new house! It is such a wonderful house! It's an older home with a lot of character and a big backyard. They are renovating a good bit of it right now, but I'll post some pictures in a couple of months when it's finished! We can't wait for summer days by the pool!

Saturday night, Dad and Mom cooked a big family dinner, and Michelle and Trent came over with Austin. The boys had SO much fun playing together now that Landon can crawl and interact! They took a bath together which was the cutest thing ever! Landon thought that Austin was amazing and would laugh hysterically every time he splashed.









 Best Friends and Cousins!















My parents LOVE being grandparents!




Sunday morning has been a nice, lazy morning! We decided to wait and go to church tonight, so we have been hanging around. Grandaddy came over and had breakfast with us and played with Landon.






Little Chief loving on his Grandaddy!







Now we must get packed up, eat some lunch, and head back to Athens! At least I have off tomorrow! Whoop! Whoop!
