Weekend Recap

As I posted last, Hotel Knight was open for business and we were filled to capacity. We had a great time with everyone here. We had beautiful weather so thankfully we got to enjoy the wonderful space that we also have outside.

The first thing Jackson wanted to do when he got here was for Uncle Adam to ride him on the lawn mower. We told him he had to wait until the morning, but he was thrilled when he got his turn around the yard!!

We took a walk down to the lake in our neighborhood. I love how beautiful everything is with the changing of the leaves.

Albe led the way! He said, "Come on guys, I know where we are going."


Beautiful View!!!


Once we got there Jackson found lots to play with.

"Let's see if I can fish with this thing."

Ben and Lacey (and Keelo too) joined us at the lake.




We had a WONDERFUL weekend. Albe says. Come back to our house anytime!!

Knight Hotel

The Knight Hotel is open for business. This weekend we had a great visit with Adam's best friend Jonathon and his wife Jessi. She took the wonderful pictures you now see on our header. She is so talented. If you are in Hattiesburg and want Christmas pictures, I highly recommend her. Last weekend we had Adam's parents and sweet sister Lisa come to visit. This coming weekend, Hotel Knight will be hosting my parents, brother Ben and his girlfriend and my older brother Jeremy, his wife Amy and my sweet nephew Jackson (and his imaginary friend Allison) and partridge in a pair tree!! We are looking forward to it!!

Have a great week!

More House Pics

Our wonderful realtor Stephanie (if you live in Starkville, I HIGHLY recommend her!!! Let me get you her number) suggested that I do some before and after pics of our house. It is a bit of a contrast from the previous owners. They kept it a bit messy which really hid the houses true potential. We are loving being home owners.
This is our bathroom BEFORE!!!!!

This is our master bathroom AFTER my dad painted!! We are thrilled to have a master bath again!!

This is our master bedroom before we painted with the previous owner's furniture still in it.

Our den, before we got the furniture in it!

We love our new couch. Super comfy.

Happy Birthday Dad!!!

Today is a very special man in my life's birthday... my dad!!! There is really no adequate way to explain how much I love my wonderful dad just as there are no words to describe how incredibly goofy and funny he is. He is called "funny man" by kids in our family, you never know if he is being serious or joking, but no matter what I know that I am his baby girl! He is the best Papa to our sweet nephew Jackson and we can't wait to see him with our kids one day. Happy Birthday Dad!! I will never forget standing with my dad in the back of the church on our wedding day. What a special time!! We love you and are looking forward to another great year ( try not to freak us out this year with the heart attack)

Pics of the new house

We have been getting many request for pictures of the house. I have a few to share today, but only because these rooms (master bedroom/bath & kitchen) are unpacked. The rest of the house is a work in progress. We are LOVING the new house and already feel like we have lived here forever.



So here is a sneak peak.

The Life of Albe

I know you are probably tired of hearing me talk about Albe, but I'm sorry, he keeps us entertained. Remember when I posted about Albe serious dislike for rain here. Well I have been looking for a little rain jacket for the fella to try and lessen the trauma he experiences everytime it rains (which seems to be a lot here lately). I lucked up at Tuesday Morning with a $5 find. The only problem was it was a little big. Albe loved it and we got a GREAT laugh, but the size made it not quite functional for the wet weather. He looked like a ghost. So cute.

Albe's wardrobe expanded again when I felt like he needed a sweater or shirt to keep him warm. In our new house we are leaving him in the rec room during the day and it gets pretty drafty. So I went to Tuesday Morning (remember shopping it limited here in Starkville) in search of a doggie sweater. The only thing they had was a Harley Davidson T-Shirt. Isn't he to cute!!!!
That's the last addition to his wardrobe. We are looking for a fun halloween costume we were inspired by a fellow blogger to get him a costume. Suggestions are welcome! Have a great day!!
