Ahhhhchooo!

Today I'm the victim of a raging head cold.

It's awful.

I had to work today too.

::sniff::







This is a "Tesia wants sympathy" post.

Only...

six more days!!

Music City and My Birthday!!

Broadway.



There's tons of really neat little shops all along Broadway.



LADIES AND GENTLEMAN....THE Grand Ole Opry!!!!



Again.

The main entrance to the Opry.

Are y'all ready?!



After waiting about an hour we finally made it to
the OTHER SIDE of the Opry Shop. WE'RE IN!!

I realized that black and white pics weren't even going
to come close to portraying what it's like inside... so...


"The Barn"

This is a smooth picture I took from the third to the front row
of the Opry House.
(I think it's smooth anyway!)

The artist entrance. A.K.A "The Star Walk"
It's SO crazy to stand there and think that YOU
are standing right where people like...Johnny Cash, Elvis,
Allen Page :O) , Patsy Cline, and tons of others have stood.
VERY COOL.

The front of the Ryman.

This is a tour bus outside of the Ryman...

Me and Mom think it might have been Bela Fleck's.
He was doing a show there that night.

A cool little side entrance to the Ryman...just think,
George Jones has prolly stood RIGHT THERE!!!
(maybe not.)

Here's your sign.

The Ryman was a church back in the day.

Gruin's Guitar Shop...it's sorta famous I guess.

ME!!



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the way, you guys did an AWESOME job of keeping a secret!! I had ABSOLUTELY NOT a clue I was going to by birthday party last night!!



So yeah, congratulations.

Happy Labor Day.

This post is for my Mama.

Tomorrow, ( as some of you know) is my birthday.

YAY!!!!!

But, before MY day begins I want to acknowledge my Mama's day.

HAPPY LABOR DAY MAMA!!

I love you.

SHMILY?

Hey Mom!!

BUTTERFLEEEEEEES.






Sorry folks. This would be a very outside joke.
Please forgive and forget. :O)

For Kyleigh, Ryan, and Colten.

Always Remember...

That you are in God's care
May be all I need to know.
And if I listen to my heart
I'll hear your laughter once more
And so I got to say
I'm just glad you came my way
It's not easy to say
Goodbye.

Lionel Richie

His name is Hannity and he's a friendly little hamster.

I'm his new "Mom".

How wonderful

Ladies and Gentleman...President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Yep.

We bloggers have stretched out our loving arms to Mr. Ahmandinejad and welcomed him into the fold. (Everyone please nod your heads "YES".)

You know, they say he's doing this as a publicity move. I think he just wanted to be like his American friends.

THAT'S US!! (Do you feel special yet?)

So, be sure to add his BRAND NEW blog to your list of blogging buddies soon!

	Tenderheart Bear You are thinker, organizer, peacekeeper, and leader all in one. You have a power to command attention and people listen to you. However, you are often so concerned about not hurting others' feelings that you don't tell them what they need to hear and this gets you both into trouble. But you always have loyal friends to help you out.

My Babies.

These are some pictures of my little munchkins.
I love them SO much. They'll alway be my little babies.

This is Baby Clare. Isn't she so sweet?!
She the smallest Smith alive!

















Kyleigh and Ryan. I'm SO glad God brought them
to us! I love them so much. It almost makes me cry
when I walk into the room and they're little faces light up.
"Tia!", they yell and run to give me a hug. SO SWEET.





















I love this picture of Elly. He's the sweetest kid in the whole
world. It's so cute when he points at me and says, "Look!"
















This is Gage, Evan, and Elly. They all look so little.
All my babies are growing up SO fast.
It's wonderful and a little sad too.



I'm SO blessed to have all these little people to love!



 

Mexicans, sweet tea, and a birthday boy.

These are the Mexican Enchiladas that were devorerd
by happy people.


















This is the sweet tea that Sarah made fun of.
It's the best sweet tea in the south and I beat her up
for making fun of it.





















This is Jason. He's having a birthday
so we made him a cake and sang "the song"
to him. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!





















These are some of the coolest people in the whole
world right here. I'm very blessed to have them for friends,
and cousins, and nephews, and brothers, and sister-in-laws.




















That's all.
