All Grown Up!

This past weekend we headed west to help my little brother, Ashley, move to Jonesboro, AR. He's been in Houston for about a year and a half working for a medical device sales company and was offered a sales position at the end of last year in Jonesboro. Of course we were really excited because Jonesboro is a whole lot closer to us than Houston so hopefully we'll get to see more of each other! Although Ashley has technically been on his own for a while now it became real to me this weekend while we helped him get settled into his new townhouse! He's all grown up and not the bratty brother on some days I thought I might kill! I'm amazed that mom and dad didn't kill US the way we fought when we were little but it's funny how time changes things and how I wouldn't trade him for anything! (About 12 years ago that probably would have been a different story!haha) I love him and I'm so very proud of all he has accomplished with the talents God's blessed him with!

When we got there Thursday night he already had everything unpacked so Friday we helped him hang curtains and some pictures. It's amazing how hanging just a few things on the walls made the place look so much more homey! Terri came up and spent most of the day with us and it was so good to see her and get to catch up for a little while! Ryan and Ashley were hanging pictures and things on the wall so I jokingly told Ashley, "Just give me and Terri your credit card and we'll go get some more things to decorate the place!" Surprisingly, I guess he trusted us and handed over his card! We found a rug, curtain and few other things to tie everything together and didn't end of spending too much of his money! I took a few pictures while we were working but then forgot to take a picture after we were done...maybe Terri did. He has a really nice bachelor pad to be proud of!

Kinsey didn't want to cooperate and get her picture taken but I just thought it was too cute of Ashley! He got called in to go to a surgery as we were packing up to leave Saturday morning that's why he's in his scrubs. We had a great time even though it was a short trip! We love you, Ashley, and are so proud of you! Good luck with your new position...we know you'll do great!
