Birthday trip remembrances

Some highlights from NC for my birthday trip:

-Adelaide playing with Aunt Sharon by sneaking up and smacking her on the butt, then laughing and yelling "Dat was me! Nah nah nah noo noo!"

-Sadie and Josie laughing and giggling in their bed until I finally had to shush them under threats of "a poppin'!"

-Adelaide hiding under the covers with the sheets over her head, singing Jingle Bells

-Doing NOTHING ALL DAY

-Swimming at Papaw's house, him tuning up our car and me saying (because of the pin in his finger) "your dexterity is impeded," instead of "It ain't working too good."

-Adelaide jumping in the pool, unafraid, and Sadie's invention of the sea horse "water noodle"

-Adelaide and Josie walking on Papaw's back

-Going to Tweetsie!

-Playing with Sydney and Carson and Bryce at Heather's house (and dancing to Justin Bieber and sleeping commando :), Heather telling me that they are tough girls because even though they are like me (Sadie falling and hurting herself) she jumped up and said, "I'm okay!"

-Me going to try Thai food with Angela for my birthday (not a fan - tastes like LOTION) and then staying up late to go to Ruby Tuesday's to laugh over my license picture, Mama's picture, and playing the Word Popper game

-Breakfast with Derek and Theda with Jedidiah and Adelaide

-Adelaide helping make Oreo cakes in Great Grandma's kitchen

-Swimming at Chasity's and loving Dalton, playing tag, doing flips, taking piggy-back rides with Noah, eating Noah's yummy mac-n-cheese recipe

-Adelaide being so tired she was staggering around like she was drunk

-Josie being so tired she was MEAN

-Taking naps then going to swim with Lauren & Angela at Papaw's house, ordering pizza for supper and Papaw playing with Jed at the pool while Mamaw brought all the food to the picnic table in a big laundry basket

-Visiting with Taylor and Evelyn at Great Grandma's

-Me going with Josh to Walmart and him cracking me up by being Captain Obvious when we couldn't get in the locked doors and "the cereal is probably down the cereal aisle."
