Girls Weekend

Last weekend, we had two of our nieces, come to Tupelo and spend the weekend with us.  Chuck went and picked them up in Columbus on Friday afternoon.  When I got home from work, they were all three at home waiting on me.  So the girls and I planted the front flowerbed, and Chuck started the grill for hamburgers.  We decided to watch a movie and have a quiet Friday night to rest up for the events on Saturday.
Saturday morning we got up and had McDonald's mcgriddles for breakfast, then we walked down to the stop sign on Chester and anxiously awaited the Gumtree runners, after the race we went to the Gumtree Festival downtown and walked around the festival.  Chuck and I found a piece of art we both really liked and the artist is Jimmy Criddle, the preacher that married us.  He is about to move to his own church.  Since he is part of us and our beginning, I bought the piece of art.  It is very special to me.
After the festival, we went to eat lunch at Connie's and then on to the Flea Market.   Mid afternoon, Chuck was tired from all the shopping, so we took him home and headed to the mall and hobby lobby.
Aubrey was wanting an earring holder, so we got the materials to make some.  They were both very excited with their creations.  We then headed out to the Corey Smith Concert at Fairpark.  We did not stay for the whole thing, because it was misting rain during the whole concert.
We got up Sunday morning and went to Church, out to dinner with my family, mammaw and pappaw, and my aunt, uncle and her son, Andy at Outback.  We went back to the Gumtree Festival with my family for a little while and came home and changed clothes and packed up and headed to Mantachie for Ms. Karen's Mother's Day celebration.
We had a great weekend with the girls!
But when we got home from Mantachie, we both crashed...
