Will's Birthday







May 21 was Will's birthday. We had a great time, though we missed Daniel, who is doing a summer internship in D.C.
For his birthday day dinner Will asked for, Chicken Pot Pie, rolls, twice-baked potatoes, and ice cream pie. Not exactly the healthiest meal in the world!! = ) Mom and I added green beans and broccoli to the list, simply because so many "bad" food items made us FEEL fat before we'd even eaten it. = ) In one of Will's cards were movie ticket to the new Indiana Jones, so we all packed up and went the the 12:01 A.M. showing. None of us fell asleep, but we were all very tired the next day. Excuse the fact that we all look horrid in the last picture-it WAS 2:34 in the morning. = ) Brient dressed up like Indy, and I must say that he looked very nice...especially since I dressed him.. = ) jk

See ya,

Laurel's Shower







The first picture is of my cake before "someone" accidentally stuck his arm in it. The second picture is AFTER the said arm was thrust into it.

ENJOY!!

The boy's fishing trip







Every year Dad takes my brothers fishing in West Virginia. They pull out their fly rods and go. Mom and I always have a girl's week while they're gone, mainly shopping, but we do try to catch up on our girl movies as well. This year Meg was able to join us and we had alot of fun. Dad took some great pictures from the trip so enjoy!!

Country roads, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
Take me home, country roads

We drove to Franklin, West Virginia last Friday!! Kevin Shipp and Bethany Teter got married on Saturday. They had a beautiful wedding. My favorite part was that she had the Pride and Prejudice sound track playing through, almost, the entire reception.
We stayed at the Hubbard's house...WHAT an amazing family!! Mrs. Hubbard is an exceptional cook and Mr. Hubbard is an exceptional bear hunter. = ) I had a blast with Rachel, Sadie, and Levi. Brient liked all Levi's guns... = )

On Sunday, after a late night at the Teter's house, we drove up to New Martinsville, to visit my mom's parents. We arrived there tired and hungry. There we ate more PJ's pizza (Mom and Dad's hometown pizza...the BEST!!) than we should have, and went to bed. The next day we ate, played ping-pong, ate, went on a very cold walk, played ping-pong, ate, and had a ping-pong tournament. We had a wonderful time. At this point I believe Dad would have me tell you that he won the ping-pong tournament, but I would like to submit that neither Daniel or Will were present, therefore he beat the "lesser" Kittrells.

Farewell for now!!
