One Crazy Weekend

Posted by The James Family at 6:38 PM

We had one crazy, busy weekend! Friday night we went to Skyler's football practice under the lights. He did great! Of course, he is only in the 9th grade so he is 2nd string for now. But he played awesome! We were so proud of him. We had a good time but missed Grandmommy and Aunt KirKir. Kirsten was put in the hospital that night because her potassium levels were dangerously low. She feels better now but keep her in your prayers.

Saturday morning we went to Houston's birthday party. It was so good to see all the family. He is 3 years old and too cute! He just ate his cupcake with blue icing as you can see!

Saturday night the Great Grandparents kept Lily Grace for a while until Grandmommy came home to keep her. We went to the Jake Owens, Brooks and Dunn and Alan Jackson concert with our friends Andy and Becky. We had a blast with them and the concert was wonderful. It drizzled for a little bit at the beginning but it was a good thing because it was pretty cool the rest of the night. One funny thing I will share is Marty caught a t-shirt for me and he knocked an old woman down to get it! He promised he would catch one if it came close to him and he sure did! It was really late getting in and we missed Lily G so much but we did have a really fun time. Thank you to my family for keeping the baby!
