Weekend Stuff

Friday night, Kevin and I headed to Pine Bluff to watch our old high school play them in football. Let's just say - if Kevin and I ever ask you to go to a football game, save yourself and say NO! We have horrible luck with football games! Once we drove into a tornado & as we got there,they were cancelling the game and heading for cover!! Well, Friday, it was lightning really bad, and I thought they would call it. Kevin is the optimistic one and kept saying,"No we are driving away from the storm - think positive!" ha! As soon (and I mean less than a minute after we paid to get into the game), they announce a 20 minute delay of game due to the weather. About 10 minutes later, they come on and say - "EVERYBODY to the gym NOW! There is a major storm heading our direction!" GREAT!!! We headed to the gym, and it was crazy! So, I decided I was going to the car ~ let the storm carry me away in the car! ha! Soon after getting in the car (which I noticed most Newport folks took the same route as we were walking to ours), a huge thunderstorm hit! We sat in the car in a storm for probably 30 minutes....then it cleared and the game did start. However, the weather switched on us and went from warm to freezing and the wind blowing! LOL! I tell you - if we ask, just say no! In good news, the Newport greyhounds beat Dollarway. This made Kevin extremely happy b/c the years he played for Newport, we always lost to Dollarway!

Saturday was another football day ~ only indoors!! yeah!! I went shopping that morning with the girls b/c Kevin was in FULL sports mode! I think the grill was going by 9 am!! So I took a break and went to this warehouse sale that had scrapbook supplies 90% off!! That's right - 90% off!!! Now, that is something to get excited about! :-) I got a ton of stuff for $20!!! Then had a good lunch at Izzy's. We watched the game that night & I actually paid attention to most of it! ha! GO HOGS!

Sunday was spent Christmas shopping at the new stores in Bryant. I am almost done!! yippeee!!! I only have my Dad and a few things for my niece left!! Any good Dad gift ideas?

And I have to give a shout out to one of my favorite peeps, Laura. She got engaged Saturday night!!!! :-) It could've happened to a more deserving person! Yeah Laura!! I'm so happy for ya!
