If anyone can make it . . . I'm betting on me and you!


Such a great weekend! Started off with a date night Friday that ended at Katie and Rusty's for a little football watchin. . . Are you surprised?? : ) Saturday was soo much fun. . . We got Shaun a new tv and did some store hopping looking for a costume for the Farrin's First Annual Halloween Bash!! Needless to say . . . There will be a post later with pictures from that party. Can't wait for you to meet Keith and Bambi . . . oh and Junior! HAHA! Today consisted of a lot of laying around and relaxing. Not something I get to do very often. It was really nice not having to do anything. When Shaun got off we ended up at Kroger getting stuff for a shrimp boil and a few things to fix his house up . . . More light bulbs for the bathroom being one of them! : ) I had never been to a shrimp boil until tonight . . . It was AWESOME!! I ate so much . . . I thought I was going to explode. My man is great in the kitchen! All in all it was a successful weekend!!

Going to the Chapel

Katie and Rusty's wedding was the biggest highlight of the past few months. They are the most amazing couple and are going to have such an amazing life together. I am so lucky to have friends like this in my life. I wish them the best of luck and lots and lots of babies! : ) Can't wait to be an aunt!!!
The girls at the bridal luncheon. It was so precious. Each place setting had a
picture of whomever seat it was and Katie. Such a great idea.
After we finished having lunch, Katie and her Mom treated the girls to manicures and pedicures. It was so nice to be able to relax for a little bit and have some good girl talk!

Katie sang the most amazing song to Rusty. I was so proud of her for making it all the way through without tearing up! Couldn't say the same for Rusty and everyone else in the audience.

I love you Katie and Rusty!!!

We went to Nashville for Katie's bachelorette party. While I was there, I was able to go visit my Mom's cousins and their kids. I don't get to visit them very often, so it was wonderful to see them for a little while.






Our group and the parents had Katie and Russ a fiesta stock the bar party for their engagement. It was a lot of fun, food, and drinks. We stayed up half the night playing catch phrase. It was a night that will be remembered forever.

Shaun and I went to the NEA county fair. We had a blast walking about watching the people, petting the animals, and vegging out on the awesome fair food!









Adam, my cousin, got married to one of the sweetest girls I have ever met. They are so cute and seem to be very happy. I am so glad Courtney is finally part of the family! Love you both!

I got to cut the grooms cake. Thank goodness it wasn't a total disaster. My cousin Kyla made the cake and it was delicious! Very impressed!
Shaun came home with me and met the whole Sisson clan. Luckily they didn't scare him off! : )
Granny and Pop! I am lucky I have 2 sets of wonderful grandparents. All of them have and continue to do anything and everything I have ever needed. Truly blessed.

Cousins: Lauren, Me, Lain, and Beth
Wish we were able to see each other more often! We always have a lot of fun together.
