Atlantic Beach

On Sunday we took a day trip to the Atlantic Beach. Jorja had lots of fun!!!

Parade of Pigs and Spring Game

On Friday night we attended the "Parade of Pigs" It was very interesting. Each cook sets up their cooking camp around the football stadium and they cook their pig all night until Saturday morning. On Saturday morning the prepared food is judged and then all sold before the Spring game for $5 a plate. The actual parade is when each pig is delivered to each station. The cheerleaders and band parade in front of the truck delivering the pigs. It was sort of barbaric!!! The barbeque here is disgusting! They use a vinegar base to marinate their meat and it's all pork....no beef!!!! On Saturday Clay's mom and dad went with me to the game and we ate barbeque and watched our Spring game. It was soooo much fun and then we had a fajita cookout at our house that night until 3 in the morning. Our neighbors came over and some coaching family. It was wild and fun. Some of my neighbors even brought over moonshine!!!!

Jorja's 2nd Birthday

Jorja turned two on March 3rd and since Daddy was in North Carolina ("tarolina" as Jorja would call it) we waited to have her birthday party until he came back to Texas for Spring break. We had a Yo Gabba Gabba party and it was soooo much fun. It was just family and family friends since we were in the middle of moving. Don't be offended if you were not inivited. We had it at Mom and Dad's place and it will be a memory I will always remember, especially since we will probably not have another birthday in Texas with family and friends for a long time. Clay's 89 year old grandparents were even there to celebrate, which made it even more special. Jorja is such a special baby and I know my mom and dad are missing her so much! So please call my mom and talk to her she's feeling lonely without Jorja. After the party we spent a couple of days in Texas and then Clay headed to North Carolina in my car. He drove with BJones, which is Clay's best buddy and one of Jorja's favorite people. It took them two days to drive. So if your coming to visit me, fly!!! Road trips are fun but not with two year olds!!!! Jorja and I flew home in a private jet with Ruff. I bawled the whole way! Jorja was not phased but now she keeps asking "where my maw and big papi?" It breaks my heart every time. We are settled into our new home and it is starting to feel like home, now. Tonight my mom and I will Skype for the first time. I have done it before with a friend from Arizona. It will be sooooo good to see her face. Everyone here in Greenville is very nice and I have met many people. Jorja has even met some new friends too. Please continue to pray for my family as we all adjust to our new lives. WE miss ALL of our Lubbock peps!!!! Check out the video of Jorja blowing out candles. So cute! Aww and Baby Addie will be with us on May 24th!!! Scheduled c-section!!! Yessss!!! Love everybody!

Cupcake Girl!

Jorja loves cupcakes. Here are a few pics of her chowing down, icing first!!!

Movers are here!!!

Jorja and I got back from NC Friday night and the movers were at our house bright and early Saturday morning. They are finishing now as I blog. My house is almost completely in boxes!!! Jorja is very confused. She keeps shutting her door in her room... I guess she just want some peace amoungst all this craziness!!! Our trip to NC was great. It's a small town but very cute. Our house is in a fairly new neighborhood....so hardly any trees in our yard:( We love our new house!!! Our neighbors are great too!!! Clay seems really happy up there, he's been up there for three weeks or so. We will officially be out of Lubbock on Thursday. I have been super emotional and weepy all week but I figure it's normal being pregnant and all. We want all our friends to come and visit us whenever they want!!! Everyone please stay in touch and continue to pray for my family. We will miss you all!!!

Sold!

Our home here in Lubbock is SOLD!!! Hopefully everything goes smoothly till closing date, March 1st! I've had movers in and out of the house giving me moving quotes. The university packs us and moves us! YES!!! This is all happening so fast! I miss my hubby! Can't wait to be with him. Jorja and I go up to Greenville this week to look for a home and a doctor. Please continue to pray that this process all works out for us!!! Can't wait to put on the PURPLE and GOLD!!! Go Pirates!!!

Great and Exciting News!!!!

It's official. The McGuire clan is moving to Greenville North Carolina. Clay took a job at East Carolina University. We are very excited about our new adventure. Actually I'm scared to death. I have never never lived away from my family. Those of you that know us, know that we are a very tight bunch. It's gonna be really hard. We are gonna need some prayers, for sure!!! Clay left today for awhile. I'll go up there in about two weeks to find a house and a doctor. Yes, I am having the baby in North Carolina!!! I'm nervous about that but I hear Greenville is a great medical community. The good thing is we are going up there with our former Texas Tech family. We will have friends making the move with us, so that will be very helpful. I am sad to leave Lubbock and Texas Tech, it definatly not on good terms!!! It will never never be the same!!!! We are ready to move on and be happy. God is soooo good!
