Local Hang Out! Monday 7-13-09

Jackie, Terri and I decided to stay at the retreat till Monday after Cooki suggested it, but then Cooki ended up leaving Sunday - so it was just the 3 of us. Jackie got up early and left and was probably home by 9am. Terri and I took our time. I got up first, made coffee, cropped a bit, then Terri got up and took a shower, then came down to crop. I then took a shower and packed up my things and we cropped until about 1pm. As we left, we decided to go to the place Tammy kept telling us about that had really good hamburgers. It was a shocker! The town of Greenwood only has 3 buildings, and one of them is the local hangout which consists of the restaurant and the grocery store all in one. In the restuarant, you can have your choice of hamburger or cheeseburger and french fries or onion rings. They had soda refridgerators where you could choose what you wanted to drink and then off to the side, was the grocery store. Terri and I laughed our butts off, because it was so simplistic and Terri knew she would NEVER be able to live there! There is no Target or Hobby Lobby!!!

The grocery store only had 1 of the item it was selling, so if we both walked in at the same time and we both wanted mustard, then one of us what out of luck because there was only one!!!

One of everything! Terri and I had a great time laughing about the dirty old man with no teeth, the local teenage girls who probably thought we looked funny, all the men who walked in absolutely filthy from head ot toe and the idea of living in this town with no major shopping around! It was fun and it was a great end to a great weekend!

Dessert in a cup Sunday 7-12-09

On Sunday, we went into Decatur for lunch/dinner and ate at Chili's. There really isnt much to chose from in these small towns! As we were leaving, Terri decided to get these little desserts in a cup. She and I got the fudge brownie and Jackie got the key lime pie. They were soooo darn cute, we decided to take their picture! Jackie said hers was good, our fudge was VERY rich and chocolaty! Yum!

Jackie's Birthday Saturday 7-11-09

We celebrated Jackie's birthday at the retreat house with cropping and eating and laughing and we gave her the gifts we brought for her. She really liked them. It was fun to be able to be there at the retreat for her birthday!

Retreat Friday 7-10-09

I arrived at Tammy's retreat house around 11am and met Cooki and her family. Her sister, niece, and 3 friends were there cropping too. Terri arrived around 1 and then Jackie arrived around 2pm. It was nice to have a smaller group there since her crop room is on the smaller side. This is Cooki in the pink shirt and her friend in the black shirt.

Wally World shopping Thursday 7-9-09

I had to go to Wally World to get snacks for the retreat this weekend! A lady that I met last year at Diana's crop e-mailed me and asked if I was interested in going to a retreat at Tammy's since they had space. I asked the girls and Jackie said yes and then Terri said yes at the last minute (literally), so since food is a neccesity there - Wally World - Here I come!

Crazy Elsie! Wednesday 7-8-09

Here is another picture of Elsie with her friend! I just love how she comes up with all these different ways to pose to take her picture and she always looks so darn cute! I know, this is random since I dont even know this chic, but I did get to meet her once and got my picture taken with her (not that means anything), but I just think she is cute and takes cute pics, so I go on her blog every once in a while and steal a picture of her! Here is the latest one I like!
