The Perfect Weekend

My parents came on Thursday night. Their visit was two-fold. They were helping Steve with the girls so I could have a little get-away and Emily has a choir performance tonight at church.

I got to go to Little Rock to see James Taylor in concert. He is about my all time favorite!!!!!! I just LOVE his music. My friends Kelly and Eric introduced me to him when we were freshmen in college. I was hooked. He is my kind of singer-songwriter. I wish the concert had lasted all night long!!!! His band and back-up singers are unbelievable. They can harmonize like nothing I have ever heard before. I just wanted to start screaming at times because it sounded sooooo good!!!!!!!!!!! I had chills from head to toe. I LOVE the guitar and I love to hear James Taylor play it. I wish I could take guitar lessons from him!
I stayed with Kelly and Eric while I was in Little Rock. We ate at The Oyster Bar before the concert. I also LOVE fried oysters. It really was the perfect evening......great friends, oysters and the music of James Taylor. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Saturday was just as good. I got to go see one of my best friends, Hillary and beautiful Sadie. It was pure bliss for me to hold her. She reminds me a lot of Emily as a newborn.

I also stopped in to see a good college friend, Kandi, while I was in LR. She has the cutest, funniest girls. I had so much fun at their house!
Kelly and Scott and the girls joined us for lunch today.
Sweet little love, Hollis. She smiled at me a whole bunch today and I could have eaten her up!!!!
Sarah Kate got to hold Hollis for the first time. SK was sooooo proud to be holding her. I think Hollis like it too!
Sweet Sadie. My pictures are all jumbled up and I don't have enough sense to fix them in the right order.

Watching a movie on the ipad.


SK has taken THREE naps since last Sunday and has not mentioned the pacifier since Tuesday! YIPPEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is doing pretty good at night too!

I totally saw the title "The Perfect Weekend" in my blog reader thingy and thought the rest of the post might only say "I saw no birds this weekend!"

Ha ha just kidding :). I'm glad that you had a great weekend! I love James Taylor too!
