KD NCTA

Kappa Delta national collegiate training academy. That's where I went this past weekend. The entire council and a CAB advisor from every chapter in the nation had to attend the event-it was mandatory. There were over 1600 kd's there. It was the largest gathering of kd's in the sorority's history. I must say that I did learn a lot about the organization that I love so much so I'm glad I went. I was never able to attend a national convention when I was in the chapter so this was my first glimpse into the world of kappa delta outside of Ruston. There were some great speakers and presentations. It did kind of inspire me to be a better leader in everything I do. So I'd say they accomplished their goal. Our chapter's council is a great group of 10 girls that have their heads on straight and I'm excited to see how they take the information learned here and apply it. Saturday's dinner was cocktail attire and it was fun getting dressed up! Haven't done that in a while!

Me, our council and Corre.

Robert Earl Keen

We had a pretty large group last night for dinner and a concert. About 17 of us dined before the Robert earl keen concert and a great time was had by all! I'd say this was probably my 4th time to see him and it may have been his best show out of all of them! I'm sad I didn't get a big group shot of all of us.








It was a very light crowd, college kids were scarce and it wasn't to loud! We could still talk to each other! My word I'm old!! My feet were sore this morning but that's a small price to pay for a great concert! Can't wait for the next one!

Potty training day 1

Was a HUGE success!! No accidents! We've been toying with training for a while now but I wouldn't commit to it. This morning I woke up and decided today was the day. I sent her to school in panties. And I don't plan to look back! I know we'll have some accidents but so far so good! We even went to church tonight for dinner and she did great there! I was skeptical about actually going somewhere in panties but she showed me!


She was really happy to wear big girl panties to school today! She also showed everyone her panties. Oh well. She'll learn!

Saturday fun day

Sat morning o went to Jenny and john's for a couple of hours to play. From all accounts she had a blast! After that we lunched at our fav spot-Johnny's!! After nap we had dinner out and then went to the basketball game. I was so glad she napped for 2 hours bc the game wasn't over until 9:15 and it was pretty exciting!

Twirling in my tutu

O has a new found love for ballerina skirts. That's what she calls them! We pretty much wear them everyday. This particular day it was close to bath time so sans clothes it was! She'll put it on and get to twirling!








They're blurry bc she won't be still!

Ag expo 2012

What a fun morning! During tax season I help Rett out when I can so he can put in the hours required to keep his job. So this morning I picked o up early and we headed to wm to the Ag expo. I've never attended this event but had heard that it was a fabulous way to wear ur kids out! :) We had a BLAST!! We held and petted chicks, petted a cow, saw several sheep, saw pigs and calfs. But her fav by far were the full size chickens!


She wouldn't stand next to this poor calf by herself and I didn't want to get too close so here's our official photo!





Then she got to drive a tractor!


After a quick lunch we got some ice cream and then headed back so she could nap at her daddy's.


Happy Saturday!

O and her GG and pops

I loves her gg and pops like its nobody's business. She went to spend the night with them last night after going to see a movie with gg. Mom keeps me updated in photos of their excursions.



Playing in one of her toy boxes down there.


Snack with Minnie.


While with gg and pops she pretty much has 100% freedom. Which may explain the 3 hour nap she took today while there. What's that about???? I can barely get her to sleep for an hour here at home! Oh well. Isn't this what grandparents are for?!?
