Spade's Birthday!

This time last year Floyd and I and his family where headed down state to pick up of new doggies! What a net little thing we did! Once we got the the SPCA (i think) and got out of our car we went over to the fenced in yard where they where playing with our soon to be doggie! Floyd went right up to spade and started to play with him and pet him! I stood back a little and waited for him to come to me! Once he did things we good! We took care of all the paper work and put Spade in the car for his ride home! Once we got to his temporary home at that time Floyd and I were expecting to keep him at Floyd's parents house until we move out of our parents house in Feb. but when we did not move out until April we didn't know how much work it was going to take at first! Once April came around, Floyd and I moved out of our parents houses and moved into our own little apartment! After we got everything moved in we went back over to get Spade from Floyd's Parents house so Spade can come join us at our new home! Floyd and I were very excited to have Spade join us at our new and little home!Unfortunately, after a week of having him, Floyd and I talked about how it was not working out having Spade living with us at this point in time! For one our apartment was WAY to small for a Lab to live in! Plus, There was no fenced in yard for him to run around in and get all his energy out after staying in the one bedroom apartment! So, Floyd and I talked about taking him back to his parents house for now until we are able to get a bigger house and a fenced in yard for him to run around in! We went over to his parents house and talked to them about our problem we were having with Spade! We let them know it was not forever and that we would take him back once Floyd and I got into a bigger house next year! They talked it over and came back to us and told us it would not be a problem at all! So, The next day we took Spade back to Floyd's parents house and this was not easy for Floyd for the most part! I was sad to see Spade go too but it was the best for him and us at this point and time! Now it has been a year since we have gotten Spade from the SPCA (i think) and Floyd is spending the day with him and after work today we are going to the pet store and buy him and his brother Boomer little Birthday gifts! All in all when Floyd and I get a house sometime next year we hope, Spade can re-join our family once again! Happy 2nd Birthday Spade, and also His brother Boomer!

After the Wedding/Honeymoon!

Let's see what I can remember! We had a good fathers day with both dads! July was Dad's 51 b-day and then Cari had her b-day also! I was also planing one of my friends bridal showers that was just this past sunday! Im not even going to get into all that drama and craziness! Then came Beth's 12th b-day and mom, steph and I took her and two friends to go see the Jonas Brothers on July 23th the day before her b-day! Let me tell you what a really good time we all had! Mom and the girls sat a couple rows down from us but that did not matter! Time after time we would make eye contact and sign wave or just be silly at each other! We also got to see a band called HS and loved them can not wait for there cd to come out in Setp. sometime! All in All it was a really good night and one Beth will remember forever! Then came time were mom and dad got to pick up there new little puppy on Sunday! At the same time I was throwing my girl friend her bridal shower! I went very well except for some things but that's here nor there! Nicole had a great time and she did not know anything about it only the date! She loved the wine/country theme that we thought of! She got lots of cool things and played some great games that I thought of! I did something like Allie (Floyd's Cuz) did at her shower! Nicole had to answer question I asked Tommy and see how many she could get right but if she got it wrong she had to put a peace of gum in her mouth! Well she got 9 right out of 15! Not to bad! Then Floyd, Nicole and I went over to my mom and dad's house to see the little new member of the family! Let me tell you what a cute, soft and small doggie he is! His name is Max and he is only 8 weeks old! I'm going to try to keep up to date with the blogging more now!

Tell next time,
Happy Blogging

The Wedding!

Now I understand that it has been almost three month since Rick and I wedding day but I thought I would give you a little day to day about what went on! We headed down to the beach on Thursday of that week! We had to go through a really bad storm, now let me remind you that that whole week it was a rain Storm every day all day! We stopped to get something to eat and Kim, Beth and I were in one car and Mom,Dad, Steph and Pam were in other! Floyd Went down with his Mom and Dad To help them out with stuff they were helping bring down! Kim, Beth and I were just about to go over the 896 bridge and the sky opened up and rain it's big butt off! We had to pull over to the side of the road and went for it to clam down a little! We got to BK to eat at last and then we all headed to the beach! Well more of the sky opened up while we headed down but no worries we got through it all safe and sound! We all get to the country club and we meet up with Ricky, Mom2 and Mr. Kingsley! We dropped off all of our stuff that we needed for the wedding and then headed to the comfort inn to check in! Then we went to drop off Ricky's things at Mark's Beach House, then met up for dinner! After dinner we get a call from Dave and Danny and they had Mom mom and Pop pop in route and was like 35 mins away! In the mean time Aunt Mair and Uncle Ron arrive at the hotel! Then came Dave, Danny, Mom mom and Pop pop! Then Mrs. Kingsley called Rick on his Cell phone and told him that the sign out side the hotel had are names on it! It Read: Welcome the RICE/KINGSLEY Wedding! It was SO funny everyone went out and saw it while Mr. & Mrs. Kingsley were coming out from the Restaurant next store to join us and the excitement! Everyone was yelling every time our names came on the sign! It was a moment let me tell you! Then we got everyone all check in okay! Then Uncle Ron and Daddy where talking and they where headed to the TGIFriday's next to the hotel for some drinks!

We wait for my mom to get in the place and her and I walk up the satire as we are walking up them we can hear the DJ playing music! I'm all excited and can not wait! Mom and I walk around and walk in to the room and it was PERFECT! I run over to look out side to see that everything is set up just the way Ricky and I wanted it to be! What a wonderful day it was outside! The weather was great maybe a little windy but everyone went with it! Not to hot out side just right! The girls and I get ready to get dressed and all! Lance arrives after taking pictures at Mark's House while that guys where getting dressed! I slip into my dress for some pictures and then the girls all get in theirs! What a great moment looking around and seeing everyone so happy and excited! Amiley looked so darn cute in her little flower girl dress and then when my mom helped me zip up me wedding grown! Time to put on my jewelry! Steph and Beth helped me with that! Good times! Now it is time for my Father to come and see me for the first time! Dad came around the corner and made a funny action but you know what I would not want it any other way! He gave me a kiss on the cheek and told me I look beautiful! Then it was time Mr. William (ring Bearer) was all cute in his little tux and ready to go! The girls and mom mom, mrs. kingsley and mom headed down to get in place to walk down the ale! Daddy helped me down the stairs and we met up with the bridal party and everyone looked so nice! At this point I could not wait to get to my love-e!

Could not have asked for a better Flower girl and Ring bearer! Love the two of them! The time has come the moment that I have been waiting for since the moment Floyd and I talked about Having kids on my porch six year ago! Daddy and I started to walk down and we stopped at the start of the ale and he said to me "Walk this way" and It was the most Perfect thing he could have said! We walked down and then I spotted him the man of my life, the one who I fell in love with, the boy who grow into a man right in front of me, that is my Ricky! What a great Ceremony Laughs and Tears all into one! Yes I put the ring on the wrong finger! The sand Ceremony was great! Danny was a great surprise thanks for helping us out!

Steph went first and what a wonderful sister she is! We have been through everything together and I would not know what to do with out her! Then it was Mark's Turn! Now that was a very very good speech, the things he said in it was funny and nice at the same time! Then Ricky and I thought everything was over until Steph stood up and Mark handed her a wooden spoon and gave Floyd and I our wooden spoon! Thanks Mom! After all that Floyd and I were ready to start with all the eating and thanking everyone, but wait my Dad got the mic and I was thrown off 100%! My Dad walked up to the front table and told me that he knows that he told me that he said that he would not make a speech but he though on wed that he was going to and it was call My Amy! The feeling came over me and all I could do is just start crying and not just a little cry it was a very mean ful cry for me! Once again I can not explain how I felt at this moment! I gave my Dad a big hug and kiss after he finished MY AMY speech! He even printed it out for my and framed it! What a wonderful gift to have from my Father! After all the tears were dried up it was time for the Father/daughter dance and the the Mother/son dance! Then the party started! There was lots of dancing and laughing and drinking! Everyone was out of there sets dancing and having a great time! Floyd and I had one of the best days of our life's that day and night!
