I Had the Best Day With You Today....

When I was a little girl, I used to LOVE when hunting season came in ~ that meant GIRL TIME with my mama and my sister (now granted she graduated from high school when I was in 2st grade, so mostly with my mama!). We would rent movies, eat pimento cheese, make punch, all sleep in one bed, go get a milkshake RIGHT before bed. I can remember waking up to the BEST hot coco EVER and cheese toast for breakfast...or homemade cinnamon/raisin biscuits. After we ate, we would head out to "gatta-bat" (that means do nothing, but go in stores and shop/look). We would usually have lunch and then come home and my Daddy and brother would be in after dark...and I would count the days until the next time they went to the hunting camp!

When I found out I was having a girl ~ I KNEW that those were the kinds of memories I wanted to share with her!!! Dove season came in today and Jackson and Dalton were SOOO excited! They left at 7 this morning and got home at 5:30! Mary Dalton and I spent the day in Augusta ~ using both of our birthday money on some new things! I took her to Toys R Us (she's never been) and we ate lunch at PF Chang. I was able to listen to her and hear all about the things happening at school, things she wanted to do today, and things she is looking forward to. We went to a gift shop and looked around. She was so cute, pointing out things she thought I would like! I enjoyed her SO much! She is getting so big and I want to treasure these days with her before she is "too busy" to spend the day with her boring old Mama! ;)

As we were walking out of the mall, she pulled me down and kissed me and said,

"I had the BEST day with you today! This was more fun than anything else I can think of!"

And I have to say.......I agree.....
