23 weeks

Mama and Daddy came to visit on Mama's birthday weekend, Sept. 21. We had a fun quick visit with a tiny bit of Starkville shopping and a yummy birthday dinner at the Veranda, complete with the peanut butter balls that we have heard so much about! So good!

This Monday I will be 25 weeks. Trying to eat a little less and walk a little more, since my dr. said my weight was moving up a little fast. The baby is moving around so much that we SAW my belly move in church this morning! Crazy!

Baby Girl Goes to Mexico

The Girls!

Melissa, Grady, Matt, and Elisabeth (former Blufish MS designer, now Blufish AZ superstar)


In September, Grady and I took the Blufish MS office (Darcy and her boyfriend Darren) out to Arizona to meet all of the other Blufishes at the Tempe office. We drove down (about 4 hours) with everyone for the employee retreat at our usual "compound" in Puerto Penasco (a.k.a. Rocky Point), Mexico. There was a lot of volleyball, grilling, shopping, ATV riding, and some renegade Mexican fireworks. The group, about 25 of us, consumed many many tacos, breakfast burritos, fajitas, and about 16 cases of Mexican beer. It was a good time, but no doubt, the last big trip for this pregnant girl. Traveling is tough, even when Grady carries all of your luggage.

Melissa goes to jail!
