Pink, Flowers, and Bows for Baby Fischer

Saturday we got to have a Baby Shower for Allison at the Biter's house. Allison's little girl is due at the end of March. It was so nice to be together with my high school friends and their moms. (Mrs. Waters, me, my Mom, Mrs. Davis, Allison, Mrs. Biter, Carrie, Becky, and Mrs. Dockter). In the background you can see the cute clothesline of baby outfits that Carrie and Mrs. Biter had hanging up as a decoration and a gift for Allison.
*Becky, Allison (still tiny--doesn't look like she is having a baby in 1 month!!), Megan, & Carrie*
one of the cutest gifts that Allison got was a sweet little hat with a big flower on it--check them out at: http://www.jamieraehats.com/
The Biter's house was set up so perfectly for the shower. Everything looked really pretty.

We played a game (thanks for telling me about it Pattie) where everyone gets an ice cube with a plastic baby frozen inside it--then while everyone is standing around talking--the first person to notice that their ice cube has melted shouts out "my water broke" and they win a prize!!!


The brunch table was gorgeous. I loved how she had the little silver cups hanging from the chandelier and the pink, fluffy, feather wreath in the background. On the menu was: chicken salad in phyllo cups, pimento cheese sandwiches, strawberry/pecan salad, zesty lemon shrimp, mozzarella/tomato/basil skewers, cheese straws, spinach dip, olive spread, cheese ball, and for dessert--delicious cupcakes from a place in Roswell called "Cakes by Darcy" http://www.cakesbydarcy.com/
Becky, Carrie, and I got to meet for lunch on Wednesday since Carrie was in town for the shower. Carrie, John, and 4 month old little Houston live in Nashville.

Valentine's Day Weekend

Sarah&Ed had Becky&Christian, Kriya&Beau, and us over on Friday and treated us all to a delicious steak meal. The weather was so nice that we got to have a candle light dinner on the porch.
Brandon and I enjoyed pizza and a movie to celebrate Valentine's Day on Saturday night. He picked up the pizza and delivered it to me with a sweet Valentine poem!!!!
Kelli and her boyfriend Brian joined us for church on Sunday and then we went up to the farm to walk around and see the cows.
Hank and the calf became friends. The bull thought they were a little too close for comfort--so, he kept a close eye in the background!

Veggie Burger

Brandon and I got to meet my Mom for dinner on Saturday night at Houston's. YUM-- Houston's is one of my all time favorite restaurants. I love everything they serve. It sounds crazy--but my very favorite thing is their Veggie Burger. I am not a vegetarian or anything--I really don't even like veggie burgers anywhere else--but there is something about theirs dipped in their delicious honey mustard-- If you haven't had it, trust me--you have to try it!!!
After dinner with my Mom- we went to East Andrews to celebrate the marriage of Candace and Patrick. Candace is one of the Nurse Practitioners at our office. They had a little, quaint, family-only wedding and then had a big party Saturday with all of their friends. It was a great party--they rented out the whole upstairs and had an 80's and 90's cover band. The picture is of some of my work friends (Brooke, Christina, Cassie, Me, and Debbie).
Got to watch the Super Bowl at Derrick & Adrienne's house. They are big time Steelers fans--so things ended up in their favor. Their little girl Elise is almost 4 months old.
Sweet little Puppy!!!
