Our Dominican Republic Vacation

So we got back this past weekend from a week vacation in the Dominican Republic!!! One word for it FABULOUS!!! It was so relaxing. We had a great time. Most of the time we layed out on the beach and on the beach beds, we hung out by the pool some too!! It is one of the prettiest countries I have been too!!! Our resort was excellent!! We did one excursion to Saona Island (a small island off the coast of DR) It was absolutely beautiful!! The people there are so nice too!!!! I loved it and hope to return soon!!

Eye Doctor and Forever Friends Banquet!!

Well, we went to the eye doctor on Tuesday!! My vision is worse, but I knew that because I could tell that I couldn't see as good. So I got some new glasses and they are really cute (they are Gucci!!) I also got those one day disposable contacts too. I don't wear them much so i figured I would just get those since I only wear contacts like maybe 2-3 times a month. Tuesday I also had the forever friends banquet. And for those of you who don't know what that is, it is a mentoring program in the city of Longview. So I am a mentor to a girl that is in the 9th grade in the Pine Tree school district. The mentoring program is for children that have close relatives in jail, have been in an abusive family, or that live in poverty. So we have a group that meets every wednesday for about 45 minutes. Their are 9 mentors and mentees. We have a really good time and talk about a lot of life issues. They are all great girls. We do 1-2 community service projects a year. We also do things outside of group meetings too. This past Tuesday was our end of the year banquet. So I took my mentee to the banquet and it was great. We had a really good time and the theme was too cute!! It was "The Heart of a Princess" and they all got tiaras. This is the end of my seceond year participating in this program.

Travel meds

Today we went and got our travel meds for our vacation next week!! The CDC recommended that we get Hepatitus A and B, Typhoid, and Malaria pills. Also we both needed an updated tetnus shot so we got that too!!! So now my arms are hurting from the shots!!!!

Crawfish Palace!!!

Friday night we went and saw "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"!! It was hilarious!! Saturday night we went to Shreveport with Ben and Deena. We went to Crawfish Palace for supper!! This was our first time so I was like this is it??? It was like we were in a movie or something! It was a little wooden shack screened in. So of course no air conditioner and the bathrooms were outside in the middle of the dirt parking lot!!! So the guys got crawfish and the girls got shrimp. I do have to say that those were the best boiled shrimp that I have ever had!!! Next time we visit the crawfish palace I will definitely not be dressing up!! Ben didn't let any of us know that this was a old jean and favorite t-shirt place!!! Then we went to the boardwalk and walked around. Sunday we went to trade days. There was a tornado that touched down in Canton last Friday and we saw on TV that there were some things damaged at trade days but on Sunday we didn't see any damage. That is our weekend wrap-up!!!

17 days until vacation!!!!!

Yes, That is right!!! We are leaving to go on vacation in 17 days!!!! I can't wait!!! We are going to the Dominican Republic!! We are staying 8 days at the Excellence Punta Cana which is a 5 star adults only hotel!!!! We love adults only hotels!! They are so peaceful and relaxing!! Here are some pictures of the dominican republic.

Jamie's Wedding

This weekend I went to Mississippi for a friend's wedding. Saturday I played with my nephews and then that night brandy was my date to the wedding. The wedding was beautiful. It was at her grandparents house (outside). I got to see some people I haven't seen in years. Saturday at lunch my dad grilled out burgers and hotdogs and my grandmother got to come over and eat with us. That was really nice to eat with all of them. Collins has some of those squeaky shoes that everytime he walks they squeak!! They are too cute!! Those boys are so entertaining. Also I got to see Carson which is Kayla's little boy he it so cute with that curly hair!!! I forgot to take my camera to the wedding so I didn't get any pictures. But hopefully I will take my camera to the next wedding so I can get some pics.

Great weekend

We had a really good visit with Wilse's parents!! We ended up going to Shreveport and shopping at the boardwalk. We went to the movies and saw 21! It was really good!! Then we went to the boats!!! For those of you who don't know what the boats are they are casinos on the river in Shreveport!! We didn't lose any money so that is always a good thing. I think we ended up about $30 to the good!! Then for supper we went to Ralph and Kakoo's!! Now we are just getting ready for another work week!! YAY!!! LOL!!!
