Happy Resurrection Day!!!

(warning: Im going to jump around a lot on this post :))

Pete and I had a very busy Easter weekend. After class  last Thursday night, I quickly drove home to Senatobia to spend some time with my family and work at the Closet on Friday. When I arrived at 10 pm, Mom began boiling eggs so that the whole family (minus Pete) would be there to dye eggs together. Love her and Love playing with some easter eggs!

On Friday night, we sent Mallory off to her senior prom and then the family and I went to Oxford for dinner and senior walk out! Cant believe my Mawry is a senior. She looked beautiful and we had a great time at dinner afterwards. Mom and I really wanted to stay and dance, but ofcourse Mallory insisted that we leave :)

Sorry its blurry..

Pete had to work on Friday so he went straight to Calhoun City and deer camp on Friday night so that he could fish/hunt saturday morning. Alysca and I drove to Calhoun city on Saturday to join the Peden clan and our men for Easter festvities. Ofcourse, I made a stop in Oxford to visit my friend Erin at her store. Its looking cute this Spring! If you go through Oxford soon, be sure to stop at Olive Juice!
 

The Peden's family church always puts a beautiful fresh flower cross up at Easter, and so Ms. Kristi, Aunt Jane, Alysca, and myself assisted with the cross decorating...IN THE RAIN! but, oh how beautiful it turned out to be! I love fresh spring flowers!

(really bad picture of us , but beautiful cross!)



Pete and I really enjoyed spending Easter Sunday with his family. We were part of a lovely Resurrection message this morning and I am blessed to have joined such a sweet sweet family. But, I have to admit I missed my Lifepoint crew, and Pete and I also missed being at our new little Church - New Journey. If we could have been at three different places this morning, we surely would have!!! Dont worry, since we werent going to be at my house this weekend, Easter Bunny Bobbie fixed us up little Easter baskets and wrapped them in garbage sacks, and put them in my car before I left Senatobia :) I was under strict instuctions to not open until Sunday morning! Thanks Mom, we loved our baskets!!!!

(Ok. so you probably just looked at that picture and wondered why my basket is full of childrens books. Well, they are llama llama books and I have been wanting to start collecting them for awhile. (You can go ahead and laugh and call me a nerd if you want.) But these books are super cute, and they are wonderful speech therapy material...phonological awareness, new vocab, lots of that tricky "L" sound, literacy approach, etc,...and they come with the cutest little stuffed llama in red pajamas!!!! If you are a mom, you need to read llama llama to your little ones.....like now.)

                                                                                                                                                            

And even through our very busy schedule, I was constantly reminded of  Christ's unconditional love. Resurrection Day is not a day just full of cute bright clothes, bunnies, and eggs. It is a day to remember THE sacrifice. And a day to rejoice because HE IS ALIVE!!!! The King of all the Earth died for me, and I didnt deserve it. I am a sinner, I am like Barabbas, and I am like the people who chose to crucify Him. I am unworthy. And yet, He still loves me. That is unconditonal love.

 We hope your Easter was as blessed as ours.

Love from the Webbs!



 

 



Friends, animals, and a cake!

My little Spring Break is OVER! I'm sad ofcourse, but it was a great week spent in Senatobia and the last few days with Pete.

I had the chance to spend some time with my Katie and Kristin. We had a great time shopping, laughing and celebrating Kristin's birthday!

Happy Birthday Kristin and to my little brother! Today is their actual birthday!

 

I also painted some Easter door hangers. Should have started doing them a little earlier so they would have had more hanging time.

 

 

I spent most of the week working at the Closet (my second home). I so loved visiting with my "mature" lady friends. Theyre so funny, and provide me with such joy, love, and lots of  "how to be a good wife" comments!

 

On Friday, Mom insisted that all of her children join her for a ZOO trip. We had a great time, and the Memphis Zoo has really grown since the last time I went.  I loved the gorilla, panda, and new baby giraffe!

 

 

 

 

I drove back to Caledonia after our zoo trip, and Mr. Webb was very glad to see me! Saturday involved several firsts for us..Pete got a haircut for the first time from someone else other than Ms. Amanda Woods. He had such a worried face as he walked out the door (way to face your fears, sweety;) ). I went to the grocery while he was gone, and came home to make my first ever cake! It tuned out great, but I turned out a mess!!

 

Yummy Stawberry Cake!

 

On Saturday night, we went over to Dudy Noble field for some Dawg baseball! We enjoyed seeing some friends and having a sweet dinner together

 

 On Sunday, we went to New Hope to join the Edge family and New Journey Church for Kevin's first sermon as Pastor there. WE loved it! Such a sweet little growing church. Please join us in praying for the Edge's and their "New Journey"...:)

 

I had big plans for Pete and I to work in the yard and go walking around town on that beautiful Sunday afternoon.

 

But Pete had other plans......

 



Napping! with his wallet?

I guess he thought I might take all his money ;)

  

Now its on to reading research articles for me. I hope you all have a blessed week, and thanks for keeping up with the Webbs! and, if you are wondering, Pete's new haircut looks fine :)

Lately with the Webbs

 



Whewww! Can you say Spring Break?...a break from school is so long overdue! Not that Im not loving what Im doing, but spending 8 hours + everyday in a clinic is getting a little  extremely tiresome. My grad girls and I have been working so hard and honestly, we would absolutely go crazy if we werent there to help each other along the way. Love them! Thank you Lord for sending me a great group!

So, Spring Break= home until next friday! Pete is home in Senatobia for the weekend too.
I know I havent blogged in a while and well ,thats due to the overwhelming amount of studying and report writing. Lately, the Webbs have been very busy.

In the last month.....

I came home to a lovely candlelit Valentines dinner cooked by my husband. There is no picture because I was just too hungry :). He has been very helpful around the house lately, especially on days when I dont get home til 8:15pm , and I am sooo thankful!

We had our first overnight parent visit from the senior Mr. and Mrs. Webb.  We had a great time, and yes, I even made a breakfast casserole. (very proud of myself I must say). Ive also been doing a lot more cooking lately. I kind of use cooking as a procrastination tool :). Ofcourse, Ive been using the Magnolia Garden Club cookbook, as would any southern woman who was raised at "Upstairs Closet". Ive made Mrs. Bev's breakfast casserole, Roberta Mayfield's panko crusted chicken, and a lot of other Senatobia lady recipes! Thanks to Tobie Town women for teaching me how to cook and for keeping Pete nice and full!

  

I went to visit little Miss Mary Jane for a few moments at the Columbus hospital. Mary Jane is the newest granddaughter to my Pop and GJ, and boy has it been a long road to get her here from India!  Glad she is feeling better, home, and now weighing over a whopping 5 lbs! Ive enjoyed keeping up with her parents journey. Welcome granchild #7!

Pop and Mary Jane
 

We received a little sneak peak of our wedding pictures on the photographers blog, still waiting on the proofs, but I loved the little teaser! Here is the link in case you missed it.

I also created a makeshift headboard that will do for the time being.....

Kristin came for a short visit to Caledonia on a Tuesday night, and we had a wonderful girl time  dinner with Brittany in Columbus. And ofcourse, recapped some college moments with Pete when we got back home!





Last weekend, we made a quick trip to Louisville,Ms  for the day and made all the rounds with my family there. Sometimes, theres just not enough time, but I loved our quick visit and always enjoy listening to Pop and Pete talk about everything under the sun. My mom was down for the weekend too and so we had a yummy dinner at my Aunt becks house that night.

Cousin Lovin

Tonight, I kept precious Lilly and Walt Atwood. They're so cute and I enjoyed loving on some little ones. We went over to the Webbs for a quick visit and well, Walt and Mr. Bobby fell in love.... so precious!

Hate Lilly missed the pic. Something important was on tv.

 



My plans this week are to sleep, work a little, paint a little, study a little, and SLEEP. I hope Pete can survive a few days without me in Caledonia. Spider Webb will have to keep him company, and dont let him fool you, Pete is in love with that cat!

Happy Sunday! Happy Spring!
