I haven't updated since Saturday--> oh well. I really haven't had that much time since Jr. Miss dress rehearsal was Friday, The actual Jr. Miss was Saturday. And well, Sunday. It was Rayce and Kendall day. But.. Anyways. Here are some pictures of the Jr. Miss.

This is how hectic it is behind closed doors.


Ashley, Rachel, and Laura

Jasmine and her "Little Sister" and "Little Sis"


Marion, Hollie, and I

Corey, Megan, and Meg

That's all the pictures that I think that I am going to to load onto blogger. If you would like to see more pictures, then go to facebook. Jasmine Eubanks won and Megan Dinsmore got Runner Up. Each one of the girls looked beautiful and I would've hated to have been a judge. They all did great! I was honored to be asked to be Hollie's "Little Sister" and I enjoyed every minute of it! I love you, Hollie!

<--My weekend-->
-->Friday- I had Jr. Miss dress rehearsal at 7. I had to be there at 6:30 to get Hollie set up and ready to get started. That ended about 9 and I went to Rayce's house. I left there about 11 because the weather was getting bad. I almost had to stay over there. So I didn't do much Satuday night.

-->Saturday- Saturday I woke up and lazed around for a good while and then decided that I might need to get up and run some errands. I went to Fred's to get Bobby Pins and things of that nature for Hollie. Saturday was the big night. So I did that and then got home and Jordan wanted to go eat at the new Mexican restaurant so she and I went and ate. At that point, we came home and then I got a shower. I went and picked up Marion at 3:30, came home, and did her hair and makeup. After I finished hers, I did mine. We then went to Hollie's to help her get all of her stuff ready for the night which we were about to be late for if we didn't leave soon. So we loaded up and went to the school. The pageant happened and then it was over. A relief for all of the girls. After the pageant, Rayce and I went to eat mexican AGAIN with Walker, Hunter, Laura, and Trevor. Then Me, Meg, Rayce, Hunter, and Walker all loaded up and went to Shuqualak to Taylor's going away party and stayed there for a while and chatted with all the people there! It was fun. I wanted to stay all night but some of them had to be home so we had to leave! Then Rayce and I just sat in the truck and talked for a while. Reminiscing.

-->Sunday- Rayce and I went to church to hear one of their old friends preach. I thoroughly enjoyed it. After church, we gathered in the fellowship hall and ate. Rayce took me home and I cleaned for a little while and then I went back over to Rayce's house. I sat down stairs by myself for a while. Mrs. Pooh and Rayce were doing something for school and I didn't want to disturb or distract either one of them, so I made myself at home. Rayce then left, unfortunatly, and I had to see him off. Went and got 2 of Micah's prom dresses and tried them on. I like them both but I am still going to go Saturday and look.

Today I had to go back to the doctor for another jaw appointment. They put me on a higher dosage of anti-inflammatory medicine so that it was heal, hopefully. I go back in 2 weeks to find out if I have to have surgery or not.

Caroline, Daddy, and Corrin just left for the beach. Caroline's 2nd beach trip! She is doing really well if anyone is wondering. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Jr. Miss

-->So tonight I have Jr. Miss! Can you say stressful? Im only in the opening number and I am already stressed out! Think about the girls that are in it! Im am Hollie Lane's little sister and Marion Colvin is our Little Sis. Megan Dinsmore's little sisters and little sis' are Meg Banks and Corey Dawkins. Ashley Thomas's little sister and little sis' are Rachel Holley and Laura Gist. I dont remember Jasmine's little sister and little sis' names are but they are all really sweet! So, all I can say it good luck to all of you! Each and every one of you will be beautiful in your own way! And once this thing is over with, you can all say that you have a HUGE accomplishment under your belts!
We had Dress rehearsal last night, and it went well. All the girls are getting nervous but I probably would be too if I was them! But they all are going to do great and its going to be a hard decision for the judges. I would hate to be in the judges positions. The real thing is tonight! Yay! Its almost over girls, its almost time to stop all the fretting! Take a deep breath! But it starts at 7 tonight, so BE THERE!

-->I'm going to Prom! Yay! Its gonna be fun. I'll be with all of my friends! Last year when Rayce and I went, most of my friends were there but not all of them! This year I can have most ALL of them. And I'm going with Walker Bell! Walker is Rayce's best friend so if your looking at this entry thinking, "Why is Rayce letting her go to Prom?" It's because Walker or Hunter or Bug would be the only one's that he would let me go with. Its going to be a fun night! Walker keeps me laughing! Now.. All I have to do is find a dress.. I have 2 weeks from today! And I have to start tanning. Like NOW! Which is perfectly fine with me. The theme this year is Midnight in Paris.

-->Update on Caroline-
She has been to the doctor like 3 times this week. She is doing good. We haven't had anymore scares or at least they haven't called me and said that she is in the emergency room! So that is a good sign. Keep her in your prayers!

The Heartbeat

We had a LONG night last night! Caroline, the sweet precious child she is, knows how to scare us to death. Corrin had taken Jordan (neice) to Faulkenberry's in Philadelphia yesterday to get a Pilot Club Pageant dress. Corrin called and said that they would be home by about 7. She had said in the conversation that when they got back to Louisville to drop Jordan off that she was going to feed Caroline. So I went to Kellie's house for a couple of hours before so that I could spend some time with she and Will. About 6:50pm, Corrin calls me and says "Don't come out to the house by seven come a little later." My response, "Why?" she said, "Well we had to bring Caroline to the emergency room." Of couse, then I am freaking out and about to drive to Louisville. Caroline has reflux (as I had said it previous entries) and she threw up yesterday and choked. She stopped breathing and Corrin had to perform the Infant Heimeleck. Luckily, when Caroline was coming home, Dad and Corrin were required to take the Infant CPR class that taught this procedure in it. So Corrin had to do that, then they took her to the emergency room. She was fine after that, thank goodness. She started breathing after Corrin did the Heimleck on her. So last night she was going to sleep with me like she always does when I am out there (I love my baby sister!) and she started making noises. She makes a specific noise when she is about to throw up and she started making that noise. Before I knew it she had spit up and it wasn't bad it just scared me. So I took her back to Daddy and Corrin and she slept with them because I was really nervous. So I was awake a lot of the night worrying about her and not only that my back was KILLING me and it was horrible. So there is the bad night that we experienced.

---->On a better note.
Congratulations to Angie Sudduth! Everyone must already know that she is pregnant again, thank goodness. That was such a hard time for everyone when she lost the baby a few months ago. But at the beginning of the week she called and said that she had heard the heartbeat which was a relief to all of us! Everyone knows that Tony and Angie were heartbroken when they lost the baby, as was I. But we know there is a little "squirt" in there now and we are all SOOO excited.
Keep them in your prayers and also my family. We don't need anymore scares.

Long days come again...

Can you say----- HORRIBLE!
This day has been horrible. I highly dislike Monday's anyways and then, this morning I had to wake up and go to the dentist. I HATE having to go to the dentist. Everytime I sit down in the chair I start to think about the noises that the drills make and it sends shivers all the down my spine. From then on, when they start, I have chill bumps and all I can think about is the noises. So then, I get to school and of course the first thing I am told is my "Latin exam is in the office waiting on me. Graded." This is not my cup of tea. The start of the day was bad and then it was about to get even worse. I knew I had done bad on my exam because I didn't study for it like i should have. Which was stupid on my part, but I had Chemistry the next day and I wasn't really for sure about it and I was at Randall's with Meg most of the night trying to figure out how to do all of the problems that were on our test. I ended up making a 70 on the exam.. Wow. One point away from failing. Luckly, she gave it back for us to correct. Which is extremely shocking to me. If I get everything corrected, I can make a 84.. Ugh. Better than a 70. (SORRY MRS. POOH IF YOU ARE READING THIS, I KNOW YOU WOULD NOT BE PROUD OF THAT GRADE!). So im finish.. I have to go play Kemper girls tonight.. Puts an even bigger damper on the day. I got to go!

Good evening, people!
Today hasn't been so good for me.. It is the last day of my spring break and I had softball practice at 2 and that last until 3:30.. Then I had to go straight from softball to Junior Miss practice.. Which wasn't actually that bad! When I got home, the whirlwind began. Mom and I were bickering over food and various things. Rightfully understanding in my point of view why she is upset. I know I am a very picky eater and I can't help that! But anyways.. Everything is ok right now. I am eating rotel as an appetizer until supper is done.
--> Back to softball..
It was long and very drawn out. Everyone was tired and nobody wanted to be there. This is totally understandable in my eyes because I agreed. We play Kemper tomorrow.. (ugh. I dred it). It is going to be a long Monday! Meg, Kellie, and I (pictures of Meg and Kellie below!)pretty much talked about important things that had happened over Spring Break that each one of us needed to know about because it was a necessity for us to know what was going on in each others lives the whole day that we hadn't talked to each other! We had some very interesting conversations. And believe it or not, a lot of things had happened since the one day that we hadn't spoken to each other!
This is Kellie. Meet her. Don't get to close! She has a fiesty side! Haha.

This is Meg! This is during Spring Break and she had kind of gotten a little sun on her face and she wasn't very happy about it!
Anyways.. Tonight we are having Pork Chops, Buttered Potatoes, Sauteed Spinach and Squash, and Asparagus.. Hmmm.. Im thinking I may enjoy eating dinner tonight. Possibly. Not for sure yet! Tomorrow is going to be so long. I have a denist appointment and did I mention earlier that I had to go back to school tomorrow. Yeh, I know, tell me about it!
--> Caroline..
IS WONDERFUL! Keep praying for her and hopefully we will have some more miracles!
Im out for the night, people.. Im going to eat, read, and then sleep.

There's no point in forever without you..

Hello everyone!
Last night, Rayce, Brooks, and I went and stayed out at my Daddy's so we could babysit and they could go out! Well... Problems arose and they both got home a little later than planned so they didnt end up going! We stayed out there anyways and spent time with the baby! Little peanut was being so good..

She loves Rayce! She couldn't take her eyes off of him! Don't let him fool you, he's attached to her too!

Brooks on the other hand didn't have such a good experience with her! She was getting hungry and sleepy and Brooks just happened to be the last one to hold her!


My sweet, little peanut is so strong! We know that a miracle will happen with this little bundle of joy.. Mark my words!
We had a wonderful time last night her! She slept with me and then she got back with me this morning and slept with me until 10 this morning!
But anyways. I just wanted to post some new pictures!

Mix up.

Ok... So my last blog that I had somehow got rejected and now it won't let me sign on. I know I didn't have it for long and my not have had many followers yet.. But.. IM BACK!

Updates on Caroline-

Rayce, Brooks, Me, and my Grandmother are going to babysit tonight so that Daddy and Corrin can go out on a date and spend some time alone together and not have to worry about anything. Caroline has been throwing up a bit and we weren't for sure what it was.. We didnt know if she was Lacktos and Tolerant (sp?) or if it was just reflux. One of the doctors that she has been going to during the week said he is pretty positive that it is Reflux. We will find out in April.

Caroline has also been going two times a week to my cousin, Ryan Miller, who is a chiropractor. He has discovered that her spine is kind of out line and it is heated at the top vertebrae. They are thinking that the heat and imflammation are whats causing Carolines seizures.
Discussing seizures, Caroline's medicine has not totally cleared up her seizures but they are trying to keep them at a minimum with this medicine. When she first started taking the medicine, she could not stay awake for long than thirty minutes and then she would go to sleep for the next twelve hours. She would feed every three out of the twelve hours, but still was asleep during. Kind of hard to explain. Now Caroline has come a long way.. She can stay awake for the most part (you know how babies are). Wish Brooks, Rayce, and I luck tonight! =)
_____
On the 18th... Brooks, Rayce, and I all went fishing. I caught ten fish.. Which was my goal for the day. I caught a 6 lb. bass. YAY! Thank you Brooks Powell. Brooks had me beat though, he caught a 6.5 lb bass so he won for the day.
On the 19th... Brooks, Rayce, and Walker went fishing. The boys were wanting to spend some time with Walker because we had not seen him. He was in Colorado while we were at the beach (I'll get to that in second)! Anyways.. Rayce beat everybody.. He caught a 12lb bass..


March 19th, 2009

Pretty big, huh? I thought so!
That night, after catching fish, Rayce, Brooks, Ellen, Micah, Beth, Matt, Michael P., Michael R., Brandon, Novie, Lee, Walker, and I all had a cookout. We grilled steak (Micah marinated them!) and baked baked potatoes, sauteed mushrooms and thats about it! We stayed there until about 10 then Rayce and Brooks left when I left. I drove all the way back out to the lake to stay with Cari so that she could have some company! It was a long night and this morning came early when those kids started screaming!

-Beach Trip:

Meg, Kendall, and Madison. Spring Break 2009.
Wow. One word to describe it. It was a good 5 days. I like the relaxation. Not having to worry about school, softball, and having fun with your friends adds a perk to the whole thing too!
  • Friday- We are supposed to leave at 8 in the morning.. well.. we didnt leave until 9, go figure? We get in the car and we drive while watching a movie. We get there. We go straight to the Wharf when we get there to get our Corey Smith/Rhett Akins concert for Saturday night. We shop around the Wharf area for a while then we all decide to just go ahead to the condo. We get to the condo and unload and then go straight out on the beach. We didnt stay out there but about an hour. But hey, its better than nothing! We went to sleep kind of early that night!
  • Saturday- We wake up! The sun is SHINING! We all instantly get our bikini's on and went straight out to the beach! Most will get a kick out of this story.. Madison, Meg, and I were all putting on baby oil because it wouldn't burn us that bad and if it did then it would turn into tan by the next day. Well, Rayce decides he wanted to put some baby oil on also. We told him not to, but you know how he is when he started arguing! So we let him. He got sun poisoning he was burned so bad. It was so bad when we got to the concert Rayce had to leave half way through the concert. Another good story for the Saturday night.. We ate at Live Bait at the Wharf before the concert.. and guess who is sitting in the table next to us? RHETT ADKINS AND COREY SMITH! We got to meet them and take pictures with them.. But they are on my phone! That night was fun.

We shopped all day the next day and then the next. that was about it. We had a great time on Monday night.. We'll talk about that later though! Follow my Blog!
