This weekend was full of birthday fun!
Friday night my mom drove up to have a birthday weekend with me. Our birthdays are exactly a week apart (mine last Wednesday, hers this coming Wednesday), so we always celebrate together!
Friday night we went to Miller's Grocery in Christiana, Tn (just up the road about 20 minutes). 
Here is what it looks like inside. It used to be a grocery/general store for 75 years! It sits right beside the railroad tracks and reminds me SO MUCH of the Whistle Stop Cafe in Fried Green Tomatoes!
They have some country cookin' and live bluegrass music on the weekends! It was a great dinner!After dinner mom and I ran to Hobby Lobby and to Target and then home to relax and watch the movie The Lake House.
On Saturday morning we got up and went to Megan and Web's new home to visit. Then we had a wonderful lunch at Olive Garden and ran to the Avenue for a bit. With me not being 100% healthy, I petered out pretty quick and we came home for a nap before we went to the Rutherford County Basketball Championship game where my boys won!!!! The Central Tigers are #1 in the county and next week participate in the Regionals! This means extra work for me with cheer, but I am so proud of our team, so I don't mind!
Mom headed home Saturday after the game and a pizza at Ahart's and I spent the rest of the night resting up. Saturday night was the firts full night of sleep that I got in 3 nights, so that was WONDERFUL and I was so thankful to sleep long and hard! I woke up this morning feeling like a new person, and that's a good thing because I had more birthday to tend to!!
At 1:00 I hopped on over to the Discovery Center here in town for Vance's 2nd Birthday party!
It was so much fun! Here is Vance blowing out his birthday candles...
And here he is opening gifts! His sugar rush kicked in just in time and he got SOOOO excited!
Vance was precious! After each gift he would say, "Woah!!!!" "OOoooo" or "WoW!!!!" Then he'd squeel and hop up and run around with the gift until we could get his attention back on another gift!The Discovery Center was the perfect place for a birthday party! There is SOOO much to see and do there! The kids had a blast running around...
Above: Me and D-word... he was such a big boy and had so fun exploring!!!
The three amigos (plus D-word). :-) Moo looks adorable with her baby-bump! These are my two favorite mommies in the whole world! I hope to be half the mommy they are one day!
Here's a group shot of Megan, Web, Vance, Chris (who Vance is named after, by the way) and Lily!
