Mother's Day @ The Chattanooga Market

This past Sunday was Mother's Day. It started out for me with breakfast in bed. (Eggo waffles on a paper plate and an orange Capri Sun squeezed into a glass.) So cute! Around 10:00 I convinced the guys to take me to The Chattanooga Market. I had been seeing advertisements about the market since Jason was interviewing with Volkswagen and I couldn't wait for May to get here so I could check it out!

It was better than I hoped for. So much to see, eat and buy! And we didn't even stay until the music started! Hunter and I bought some HUGE pretzels from the Bluff View Bakery. Carter bought three heirloom tomato plants for his garden, and Jason bought a huge SLAB of hummingbird cake. We also picked up a gallon of strawberries that had been picked that morning. Below you can see a picture of part of the market, along with a bowl of the berries that I have all ready to be baked into a cobbler. YUM!


We can't wait to go back!

Cookie Exchange

The first Saturday of December, I hosted my first Cookie Exchange. I had been wanting to do this for years, but things were always too busy. I decided to go ahead and do it anyway this year and it was fun! Lots of ladies attended and the cookies were great! Maybe I will do it again...

All the "egg hunts" were with plastic eggs this year, which the kids prefer, due to the candy/prizes inside. We went to our new church on Easter morning and the kids made it through the "grown-up" service, so it has been a great day so far. Now, on to lunch at Grandma Jackie's house for Easter dinner!

Our special visitor....

Do I have a story to tell you! Last night Hunter ask if he could go out to the van and look for his Nintendo DS. I let him go and then made sure he locked the door as he came in. This morning, as I stepped outside to take some things to the car before we left for school/work, I noticed the sliding door on the van was wide open. I started griping to the boys "Good grief, now the battery is going to be dead....AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" They came running out the door to find an "American Bulldog" curled up in Carter's seat. After I got my wits about me, I sent them back in and tried to talk the dog out of the car. Then I tried to entice him out with a hot dog. He just stared at me. Then I got a stick, opened up all the doors and yelled at him to try to scare him out. He just ran behind the seat and hid in the back. When I got really agressive he started quivering his lip like he was going to growl at me. He was scared of me and I of him. All the while, I was documenting th...
