Meet Ms. EmmyLou

She is a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon
She is 10 weeks old

She is sweet and sassy...everything a Southern Belle should be....

My beautiful, little family!
She was his "thank you for working so hard,""congratulations when you graduate," & "Happy Anniverary"  gift!

She may be Tyler's hunting dog..but she's my little girl! I love her already!

Yet again the months go by...

Ufta..I am awful at keeping this up. Tyler is constantly asking me, "Did you blog?" "Are you gonna blog ever again?" and I keep saying..When I have time I will blog! Of course there is never enough time and I'm always behind.

Since I'm a few months behind we will start with some updates!

1) I was able to spend almost an entire month with the family. It was amazing. I forget how much I love being there. I love going to track meets, I love getting hooked on a TV show with my dad, I love talking to my mom late into the night, I love teasing my brothers and sisters...I just love it all. Of course there was one thing I didn't love, Tyler wasn't able to come. So my little family was split apart while he worked on his thesis and LeRoy and I enjoyed Iowa.

2) Tyler is starting a job with Mississippi Wildlife Fish & Parks...on July 5th!

3) I just finished a course on Paul Laurence Dunbar..And now have a love for poetry!

4) I also just finished a Spanish III course...No me gusta hablar en espaƱol pero tengo tomar las clases. Idk if I did that right...but what can you do? At noon today I shut off all Spanish in and out of my brain.

5) We MOVED!! No more Avalon..No more basketball players...no more neighbors..No more donks bumping outside shaking our windows. We moved out into the country to a trailer. Yup..You officially know Mississippi Trailer Trash. The trailer is a little rough and I'm adjusting to the environment, but it is only for six months. I can do anything for six months!

ps..if you want see the place you have to visit. There will be no photographic documentation, I plan on denying we ever lived here in 20 years.

If you want our address...let me know!

6) We have moved, our things have not. Unfortunately, 80% of our things are sitting underneath our church. Which means I am frustrated 80% of the time because I can’t find the things I need? Hopefully, we will get our things during July!

7) Almost three years ago Tyler asked me to marry him! I love love love the fourth of July, and I'm very excited to be spending the fourth with Tyler James! I hope everyone has a safe and happy Fourth of July!
