Kingston Knox!

On June 14th, I got the phone call that my best friend was going into labor. I was beyond excited, I dropped everything I was doing and rushed to the hospital. Well, we were in for a long night. I finally left the hospital at 11:30 that night after the doctor came in and informed us there would be no baby until the next morning or afternoon. I went home and tried to get a few hours of sleep. At 5:00am my phone went off..."THE BABY IS COMING!" is all I heard. I jumped up, put clothes on and I was standing in the hospital thirty minutes later. The babies heart rate was starting to drop and the doctors were getting nervous so they decided it was best for baby and mommy to preform a c-section.

Hello! Hello!

I just realized my last post was well over a month ago. A lot has happened since then...

This little cutie was born on June 15th! Everyone meet Kingston! (You are going to hear a lot about him in the future.)

I saw this pretty lady in concert with my niece in Knoxville on July 1st. (A post is coming up about this wonderful day.)

I had a wonderful July 4th with my sweet family and friends! (That is another post coming!)

I am so excited to announce that I am headed to my favorite place...The Great State of Texas...this Saturday.

My parents and I are road-tripping it from Tennessee to Texas (Lord help me!). I am usually a flyer, I like to get to my destination in the least amount of time possible. I am excited because we will be stopping in little cities along the way for me to explore. 

 I am very excited to meet this lovely lady in Memphis. Nicole has become a wonderful friend and I can't wait to meet her in person. (Sorry Nicole, I stole this picture from your blog.) 

Check back for post in the next few days! I plan on posting everyday of my trip starting on Sunday!

Have a great Wednesday!

sick day #2 = weekend recap!

Sick day #2 is going way better than the first. Thanks for all of your well wishes. I have spent most of the day on Pinterest, pinning away. Seriously, I have a problem. 

Anyways, I want to share some pictures from my weekend. Saturday was little man's last lacrosse game so I had to snap a few pics...

Then, I threw a little surprise party for my best friend at Olive Garden...

(bf hubby being funny with the bow from the cake)

I am off to see Something Borrowed with my momma and nana! Movie review and more weekend pics to come tomorrow (or maybe tonight)!

sick day!

Hello lovelies!

Well it is true, I tested positive for strep throat. This seems to be an every season thing here lately. The doc mentioned something before about taking my tonsils out. Do you all still have your tonsils? If you had them removed, did it help? 

Anyways, after leaving the doctor I went to Walgreens to wait on my medicine. This was not a good idea! When I am sick, I break all kinds of diet and eating the right way rules. The past few weeks I have been doing so good, but today, I blew it.

 as if all that wasn't bad enough, I decided to get Japanese for lunch...

I will be spending the next couple of days in the bed  keeping up with my new current obsessions, Pinterest and my iPhone.

Are you obsessed with Pinterest too??? Good, go follow me and I will follow you!

I got my new iPhone last Wednesday and I seriously cannot and will not put it down. I am completely obsessed with it! Another obsession that I found through my iPhone is Instagram. It is responsible for the cool pictures above. My username is misstasha, so find me!

That's it for me today. I hope you all have a lovely day.

happy mother's day

Happy Mother's Day to all the beautiful Mommas!!

To my Momma- I love you more than words can express. You are a hard-working, Godly woman who has made me the woman I am today. You are my shoulder to lean on and my best friend. You are always there to lend and ear, whatever my problem may be. You have wiped my tears, loved my unconditionally, nursed my wounds, been my taxi, taught me right from wrong, proved that you really are always right and have been my biggest fan. Thank you for all you do. I hope that one day I am half the Mom you are. Love you always and forever! - your baby girl

a lovely video

Hi there,

I just wanted to share this video that my church posted right after I wrote my last post. You can read all about the damage to my area here. This video shows more footage than what others can see from the interstate. Our youth pastor Brent, offers an inspirational message on what to do in a time like this and what we can do to help.

This video offers hope. Please share this video so the people close to you, affected by the storms can get the same hope that our region did.
