happenings

This week has been pretty full for us, but so much fun!

Tuesday night, Jamie and I joined about 6 other couples for dinner at the Phelps' new home. This wasn't just any group...it just so happens that the female portion all graduated from Auburn. Most were Alpha Gams, with me, and two others were Chi O's. We had such a great time! Of course, by the end of the night, the men and women were sitting on opposite ends of the room...with the girls continually ending up in rants of laughter about how small this world is...ok, and maybe about the blog world and how it contributes to the smallness. Check out the blogs of at least half the girls there - Turner, Leigh, Tyler, and Jessica. So thankful for good friends and great community!

Wednesday night was Jamie's softball game (which we're not gonna talk about...not their best night), and Thursday I joined my favorite mother-in-law (and the lovely Schwak laides) at Alive After Five on the square in downtown Roswell. If I haven't mentioned before how much I love downtown Roswell, I do! It's like a small town community...and everybody comes out for this event. After strolling down the sidewalks checking out all the vendors, and maybe picking

out a few treats for myself (how awesome are these wine cork candles?! They're already in wine bottles on my kitchen table...imagine that), we decided we wouldn't brave the 1.5 hour wait at all of the restaurants. So, we headed to a little Mexican joint close by, but far enough to not be in the crazy mix. Again, great times with some people that I love!

And this weekend will be full of fun as well. The first portion of tonight, we're going to get to catch up with Lindsay and Gavin...they've been traveling all over the country over the past few weeks, having art shows to benefit LUO. We also might just celebrate the fact that Linds turns 24 today! And once the traffic has subsided we're going to Cashiers to see the family. And finally check out the highly anticipated, (almost) completed renovation of the mountain house!

Enjoy your weekend!
