Friday/Saturday Night Itenerary

Meet at Logan's and then...........
8:00pm
Logan's
Of course I get there at 7:45...ready for a good time! Who needs to make reservations? Just squeeze your way into the restaurant full of people who have their name on the waiting list. By pass the hostess, sit down at a table like you own the place. A few minutes later when the table is full of friends and the manager asks whose name was on the list...smile real big, act confused, and then place your drink order.
10: 00 pm
Jimmy's Too
Start with some line dancing and end with some pole dancing! (Just joking on the pole dancing!) Begin "Boppin the night away" with my good friend Jena and Missy. Grab a table, order a few drinks, take some pictures, and visit with Mrs. Kimble, Melissa, Duane, and some of their friends from Brookshire Brothers. Not only can us exbrookshire employees work hard...but we can party hard too!
12:00am
Next Stop 94
The sensible people went home, and the crazies when to Jimmy's. With a responsible driver of course. Thanks Scott. Other then a little "trip and fall" in the middle of the road, we all had a fabulous time! All that dancing really built up an appetite.


2:00
Whataburger
Or atleast that is what they told me. They ate....and I begin to ask myself, " What was I thinking?"

3:30am
Home again, home again..jiggety jig!
I was home, but my car wasn't.
Couldn't go to sleep without first checking facebook.
6:00 am
Wake up call
"Get up and go to work!" The responsible driver, and the only one who had to be at work the next morning.
9:00 am
Pick up car
Eric took me to get my car. Spent the day texting and chatting with friends about the wonderful memories made.
7:00 pm
Applebees
Thank goodness I took my husband Saturday Night. We ate dinner and came home!

Menu Planning

Ok..one of my many New Year's Resolutions for 2009 is to not eat out so much. By so much I mean every meal. Today is the first day of the school year that my son and I did not have Chick-fil-a for breakfast. So, I'm not real sure how to do all this menu business, but once I post these fabulous meals I'm sure my blog will be the new hot spot!! These tasty dishes are super tricky! LOL

Monday - Chicken Nuggets/Sandwiches
Tuesday - Taco Soup
Wednesday - BBQ Sausage/Mac and Cheese
Thursday - Chicken Pot Pie
Friday - Tacos/Cheese Dip

Dirtbikes







On Christmas morning when the boys checked their stockings they both found dirtbike keys. I think Santa got confused or had a weak moment because I told him they deserved coal and switches this year!

The Lair Family


This is a typical day at the Lair house. Momma and daddy want to be lazy, but the boys have a different plan in mind. Right now they are trying to convince Eric that they need to build a wooden track to race their Derby cars on!




This is the only family picture we have. It was taken three years ago. I think it is about time for a new one!
One of my favorite gifts of all times from my friend Jennifer are these two picture collages of the boys.














Buckle Up - It's a safety precaution!






















Never too old to play in the mud! Last night we had a blast hanging out with some friends at Shiloh Ridge.
