My Mom and her cousin, Pam, have been visiting since last Wednesday. We showed them a little of Savannah on Thursday by taking them downtown to eat at B & D Burgers, our favorite burger restaurant, then shopped around. Mom and Pam wanted to see Paula Deen's, so we went into her store and found out that she would be in town tomorrow morning doing a book signing.
Mom and Pam woke up at 4 in the morning and stood in line from 6 am to 8 am to meet Paula and the gang: her husband Michael (which gave Mom a hug out on the street), her brother Uncle Bubba, and her two sons, Jamie and Bobby! And I couldn't go with them...I was so upset. However, Mom did bring Dusty and I an autographed cookbook with all their autographs in it! Friday night, Mom and Pam let Dusty and I go on a date, so we went out to eat, then picked the girls up and went to Cold Stone (best icecream anywhere!).
Saturday, we went to St. Simons for the day. We walked the beach, shopped, toured the lighthouse, and ate dinner at Mullet Bay. Yum!
Sunday, we hung around the house and went shopping. Then had dinner at Vinnie Van GoGo's downtown in City Market. Another one of our favorites! The four of us are sitting there outside eating our pizza when Mom slapped Dusty on the shoulder...Mom was speechless and we had NO clue what was going on, until we turned towards the street and saw a man bent over with his shorts down at his ankles, and NO underwear!!! Yup! How entertaining he was, trying to balance his takeout pizza, sunglasses, beer, and his shorts falling down...it was a scene!!! The poor man was so drunk and couldn't keep up his pants...who knows who all saw what! Thank goodness we got the back shot and not the front hahah!
Monday it was back to work for Dusty and I and when we came home, we had a nice homecooked meal (and some came from our garden). Mom and Pam fixed meatloaf, squash casserole, and mashed potatoes. And for dessert we had strawberry and kiwi shortcakes....yummy!
Mom and Pam went to Tybee Beach on Tuesday and shopped in the cute stores there. I was actually there too on a field trip with about 60 children from the Y. Wish I could have run away with them!
Wednesday morning Pam left to go back to Indiana and Mom stayed and we hung out when I got off work at 3. We took Paisley to the vet...good news, she is well! And she now weighs 2 lbs, 4 oz!!! She's growing! We had a wonderful dinner at Olive Garden. After dinner, we stopped by Pet Smart and bought Paisley a new crib...a house like Layla's. Layla looooves her house and I have not been able to find one anywhere for Paisley. It's animal print and when Paisley gets in it you can't even see her since the inside is all black and so is she! She seems to like it...I mean c'mon, it even comes with a disco ball hanging inside, what's not to love! (It's actually just a ball for the cats to play with since its meant for cats...just in case some of you were wondering it was a real disco ball haha).
Dusty is back in the field. He left yesterday morning at 2 am....yup, isnt that ridiculous, and he will be back sometime around August 15. Please keep us in your prayers and we'll keep updating everyone with what is going on at the Egglestons!
P.S. We didn't take any pictures the whole time, but I think Pam did, so hopefully I can get some and post them on here.
