February 2025

Oh my heart!  My husband and I waited so long for these precious moments, and he is just perfect for the role.  Such a loving and gentle girl daddy after being a fun and playful boy dad for years.  He is definitely Maggie's favorite, but Mommy still loves him too.  Mommy's role was to get the princess ready for the ball which I take very seriously.  They had a great time at the Daddy Daughter Dance, and of course, Maggie found her bestie! 

I want to remember these precious moments with my love.  We celebrated another Valentines in Nashville, TN at the annual NWTF Conference.  We got all dressed up for a fancy gala dinner.  After 25 years together, Eddie can still clean up nice and looks even more like Rip Wheeler from Yellowstone.  Swoon!  I am a lucky girl!  It was a rainy weekend, but we still enjoyed the sights and sounds of Nashville and checked out some new bands at Luke Combs' new bar, Catergory 10, and at Lucky Bastard Saloon.  Jason Cross and Intoxi Kaitlin were fabulous.  We even got a special dance to our wedding song Valentine by Martina McBride.  Finally, we got a long overdue visit with old Georgia friends on the drive home.  Upon returning home, I was hit with the sad news that a precious high school friend had went to heaven after battling cancer.  I do not want to take a single moment for granted because I know she didn't.  Hugs to heaven, Amanda! 

The kids got a special weekend with Grandma which Mom and Dad were away. 

Maggie enjoyed going to a friend's birthday party at the park. 

The big boys got to go shoot some guns with Dad at the shooting range. 

Just enjoying these special solo breakfast times with our oldest before he flies the nest.
