Busy..and yet, still bored.

I'd have to be bored to blog about the Piggly Wiggly right? Did anyone see Win a Date with Tad Hamilton? (the movie with funny Topher Grace and Scarlet Johansen..i think) well Drew and I really liked it. And there was a Piggly Wiggly in that movie and I thought it was fake. WELL, I found it out here and was soooo happy! (read like Emperor Cuzco says on the Emperor's New Groove)...oh, I am the only one who likes that movie too?? Anyway, I have always loved all things southern and country..at least I have loved the idea of it all. We bought a house on Monday. It was a pretty tough decision. We could choose from so many more "romantic"-ish houses. One was built in the 1920's HUGE, re-done and amazing...CHEAP...but in the bad part of Muskogee. Oh I could have made that kitchen BEAUTIFUL, but Drew wasnt feeling it. Then there was the house in the country. It had 2 and 1/2 acres, was big, had a front porch swing and 4 car garage for ATV's!! I could have had lots and lots of pets!! In the end though, we eneded up with the most architecturally boring, but the most practical, as far as resale and that stuff. The guy has remodeled it all and we got a great deal...and best of all I will never have to step foot in this lovely apt. after the end of Sep!!! whohoo! In the mean time I am focusing on all the nice things about our new house and trying not to day dream about pretending I am a cowgirl in the country with my critters. I guess I will have to stay away from the Piggly Wiggly. That was way too out of a movie. Everyone knew each other and were talking about Johnny's wedding down at the baptist church and blah blah blah lots of country movie set type stuff. I am rambling.
Cooper smile! we are in the Piggly Wiggly for Pete's sake!

We got corn at the Piggly Wiggly, and beans. And that was our dinner. And corn bread. I am a great cook.





OK, more kids standing up against the wall pictures. I have one space in my apt. that isnt lined with stuff.


Cooper still makes dumb faces.

Not very summery but the shoes were on sale, and the dress matched.




Honestly mom....

Yea, a new house! I'm so happy for you all! And the Piggly Wiggly pics brought back memories of my college days in a very little town in Arkansas. I didn't know we had one in Oklahoma! Neat:) I loved the kids pics too! They are the cutest!

So when are you going to post pictures of the new house to be? Is there room for us to come? We can't wait to see! Spence was pretty upset when his brothers were talking about the lawless nature of Oklahoma yesterday. . ."but Cooper this, and Cooper that". . .We'll send something for Cooper once you are moved into your new house, I couldn't bring myself to send anything knowing your living conditions! Hope things are well, ane WE are GLAD you are getting a house, September isn't too far away!
