A long time ago

This is my third birthday party. Can you guess who the little girl in pigtails is?

Huntsville!

Bert and I had a great time seeing Meggan and Wesley this weekend. My cousin was having a graduation party and it just so happened it was in Huntsville. It was so great to see Meggan and meet Wesley. Their house is so cute!

Nothing like some Jamma time...

New House!!

Well, we are on our way to getting a new house! This may be a surprise to some of you, since I haven't really said much about it, but it has been an extremely fast-moving process!! It all started last Tuesday when I called a friend to ask about a builder (we were thinking about building). Well, she told me about this house and how the builder really needed to sell it. Turns out he is going to buy our house and renovate it to re-sell, so we don't even have to do any work to it or try to sell it. He gave us a GREAT offer on our house, and a great deal on this one! This is probably the best luck we've ever had! Our soon-to-be new house is in Bainbridge subdivision in Madison County. I think we'll have a Canton address. It is such a cute neighborhood...it has a website if you want to check it out. www.bainbridgemadison.com If everything goes smoothly, we'll be closing by the end of the week and moving over the weekend. Whirlwind!! Some pics of the house are below. They don't do it justice, though. It is so much better looking in person, so you will all have to come visit!

How is everyone? We are doing great at home. A baby is a lot more work than I thought, though! It is all worth it to see him grow and change. I miss hearing about yall and your lives. I think everyone should post an update. I need things to read at home all day. It will be like an adult conversation! Haley, I hope you are feeling better.

The Twin

So, I was online this morning and got another message from the person I was speaking of in yesterday's post.

"Weird. I must have a twin with the same name," he said.

Huh.

All of a sudden, I clicked on the person's profile picture and what do I see?

NOT an old Sigma Chi from State. No siree. I have no effing clue who this person is. However, they are my Facebook "friend" now. It just so happened that there is someone else out there with the same exact (not so common) name. They look just the same in the small picture until you have access to their profile.

I thought this was pretty hilarious considering I felt like total crap yesterday. Y'all know how sensitive I am.

Ah, my ego is back in tact. :)

"I really hate to say this, but I have no idea who you are"

So......my Jamma bubble was bursted today. I mean, how could anyone forget us? ;)

I know some of you are on Facebook and others aren't, so I will give a quick explanation. Facebook is this giant online community and basically you ask other people to be your "friends" and you send messages (public or more like emailing) to people. It's like a level below traditional emailing, so you can say hey to people you wouldn't email, call, etc. And you can just have short conversations back and forth. You can also see what people are doing now, so it's neat to see what's going on with people you would usually have no clue what happened to.

ANYWAY, I was going to class the other day, and I saw this Sigma Chi that used to go to State. He was one year younger than us, and we all totally knew him. So, I got on Facebook a few days later and said that I thought I saw him, and was he going to school here. Luckily, I sent him a message that was of the private variety...meaning I would not be humiliated in public, except now I am telling everyone.

His response to my message?

"I really hate to say this, but I have no idea who you are."

Ouch.

And the thing is, I had this fleeting thought that maybe he didn't remember me. But then, I thought I was just being silly.

What a shattered ego I have today.

We are all doing great. I posted more pictures on our blog. Talk to you soon.
