Also, Chris's Grandfather is doing great. He did great through the surgery and everything went as planned. He is still in ICU and should be moved to a private room tomorrow. Please keep him and Chris's family in your prayers as well.

NEEDED PRAYERS!!!

Well this week hasn't started off as planned. Yesterday around mid afternoon, Chris and I got a phone call that his Grandfather was being rushed to DCH due to chest pains. After running tests they discovered two blockages. Chris's grandfather will be having double bypass surgery this morning and every prayer we can get is needed. Grandaddy Charles is a strong and healthy man so we feel sure everything will be fine, but you can never have too many prayers. Also, my best friend Ann Bradford called me last night to tell me about one of her friends in CA. Her friend Katherine Wolf was rushed to the hospital yesterday for a possible aneurysm. She did have bleeding in the brain, so they rushed her in for emergency brain surgery that was to last 8 to 10 hours. The last I heard she was coming out of surgery and was stable. Please keep Katherine and her family in your prayers as well. She is married to a wonderful man and they have a 6 month old son together. That little boy needs his mommy and with the power of prayer we can all keep Grandaddy Charles and Katherine safe and well. Thank you in advance for all your prayers.

Welcome Baby Allie Barton!!

Chris and I have had a very eventful week and weekend. This past Wednesday at 2:58 our dear friends Ken and Allison Barton had their first child Alice Ann Barton aka Allie. She weighed 8 pounds, 7 ounces and was 22 inches long. We went to visit the new parents on Thursday night in the hospital and they were all doing well. Then Friday, Chris and I both took the day off to work in our yard. We planted elephant ears, red and purple verbena, hostia, knockout roses, lillies, zinnias, and put out fresh mulch. We were so proud of our job well done and we had an awesome day together! Then Saturday we just enjoyed the beautiful sunshine in our backyard and both got a nice tan or should I say we look more like Lobster's today! Since we didn't make it to the Crawfish Festival in Faunsdale we decided to the bring the Crawfish to our house. So mid afternoon we cooked Pistolettes and a Crawfish Pie and of course had a few ice cold beverages to help those little critters get down. BOY, WERE THEY YUMMY! Then Sunday we went to check on the Barton's again. They were doing great and are going to be great parents. Not much of an exciting weekend, but I just thought that I would share our nice and relaxing weekend with each of you. It is not very often that Chris and I can just spend quality time AT HOME with each other and it was very nice. I've realized that in a marriage we sometime take for granted the time we do share and sometimes need to just sit back, relax, and enjoy each other's company.

WORKOUT WEEKEND

Isn't this picture just GREAT!!! Over the past month Chris has decided that he needs to get back in shape. So this weekend while Brady was at our house the guys decided to workout together. It was too funny not to capture a picture of the event (of course it didn't last too long because after about 5 minutes Brady's arms were about to fall off). After a workout on Friday evening and then chowing down on the delicious ribs that Chris cooked for us, we headed to T'town on Saturday for A-Day. Yes, I worked the Willy T's wagon and the boys hung around and played while I was slingin' chicken. We had a fun filled Family Weekend and can't wait until our next.

I'M FAMOUS!!!

This past October, one of my close friends from High School, Jane Glover (now Dunne) married the love of her life and she asked me to be a part of their celebration. It was so much fun! The wedding was held in Greensboro, Alabama at the Presbyterian Church and then the reception was at her Dad's estate in Sawyerville. The reception was AWESOME! There was great food, great drinks (which I think I drank all the white wine they had to offer), and the band was amazing! But not only was this such a great celebration to be a part of, Jane and Seth's wedding somehow managed to get into a new Magazine (Southern Wedding Style). And GUESS WHAT???? I'm in it too. Not only are many of her wedding pictures featured in the magazine, but Jane made the COVER. If any of you want to check out this magazine you can go to http://www.swsmag.com/ and check out the photos of Jane's FABULOUS wedding.

NEW TO THIS....

Well hello everyone. I recently discovered this new blogger and figured what the heck I guess I should join. So here I am. I am not good at this at all right now, so please hang in there while I try to figure this thing out. I'm so used to myspace, but get tired of it at times because most of the time it is nothing but drama. Above is the most recent family pic I have of us. This was taken the weekend it snowed in Marion back in January. Brady loved the snow. It was his first time to ever see any. We had fun, but BRRRRR was it cold. Nothing much new going on with us. Last weekend we took our first Deep Sea Fishing trip of the year. It was fun, but sadly only brought home one fish. The fact that it rained most of Saturday kept us from enjoying our day out in the gulf. But we had a good time. This weekend the HAMM FAM is heading to Tuscaloosa for the big A-Day game. Well I guess that's it for now. So maybe next time my blog will be more interesting! HAHA
