Oh, internet world, how to even begin to describe my family? A tad crazy, wild and fun, would be the first three words I would use. But, around midnight on Sunday, after I had had 1 {thats right ONE} hour of sleep the night before, I would also say LOUD! Hey, I come by all of these traits quite naturally.

My weekend started out quite nice- Mark, the kids and mom headed off to Macon on Saturday AM- that left the WHOLE HOUSE to just me! See, I had a wedding on Saturday, so I had to go in a separate car. So, I make the brilliant plan, since I will be up shooting a wedding- I might as well make the 3.5 hour drive when its over!

….except I finished at 11:30
…..and the ride was 4.5 hours

and I decided to take 5 hour energy to stay awake {watch out highway}! So, when I got to Macon, at 4:30, I could not sleep! I think I dozed off around 5:30, and little miss sunshine {Haylee} woke up at 6:30- can you say TRAIN WRECK?!!? To top it off, I think I missed one of the craziest nights known in Spohr land {my mom’s maiden name}. I mean, EVERYONE partied till around 3! Fortunately, I got to spend a fantastic night with an amazing couple- more on them tomm. But even KT & KD did not make up for the terribleness that is I-10!

Sunday proved to be as much fun! I love watching my mom do shots! I mean, how often does anyone get to see that?? There were so many kids running around, dancing, playing, SCREAMING- it was like chuck e cheese on steroids! Except adults were enjoying it too!

All in all, it was ONE long weekend, filled with so many “you had to be there” stories. And yes, I am still tired, and I know mark and the kids are too- but it was worth every minute!

Candace, Greg, and little man C- you guys are wonderful! Thank you so much for showing me the porpoise in life! I cant wait till you come to visit again! Candace- practice those dance moves- I am ready for you!

karen & Bill- Thank you so much for putting us all up at your home, cooking and overall being AMAZING. Your home and hospitality was incredible! Seriously, I am moving in! No, I am not kidding, bags are packed!

Jeff, Nikki, & Baby A- Tennessee?? I mean are you sure you want to be Tennessee fans??? It was so good to see you guys! I hope you had a safe trip home!

The Tampa Crew- yes, there were just too many of you to list- It was so wonderful to see you guys again! I cant believe how the girls have grown- and I cant believe you are adding another to that brood! You are a better woman than I! I hope you guys had a safe trip back!

John and Paige- oh the words escape me…I love that we have to go 5 hours NW to see each other! I had such a great time with you Paige, and John, seriously, I think you need to take that show stand up. World watch out- these two are going to procreate! LOL!

I hope you guys enjoy the slideshow down below…
