Hey friends!
Yes, I am a blog slacker! I really do want to update my family and friends, but where does the time go? We just got im from a quick trip to ATL for a great friends wedding. OBLO is his name, pronounced "Hablo" which I think is "I speak" in Spanish. No, that is not his real name, it is Ryan :-) Oblo was one of my brothers best friends I think since high school. Oblo has always been a part of the Drew clan just as about 1/2 the "boys" at the wedding were. We (mom, Mabes, Andy and I) are super excited to have celebrated with the newlyweds. But just as any event with all Mitch's buddies, it was very hard. Very hard. I just envision Mitch standing, laughing, talking, talking and probably a little more talking with all of his old guy friends. That group of guys are fun, they are all spread out but have remained such good friends, there are not many groups of guys who love each other so well. Of course in a guy sort of way. I tried to take a million pictures with my shotty camera, ended up using moms...I try so hard to capture every moment of life on camera, sometimes I probably miss the actual event because I am taking pictures. But I never know when it is going to be the last time I will see someone, so I feel I must snap away. It is actually pretty sad. I might have to start leaving my camera in the car. Anyway...the weekend was great, the wedding was beautiful, the car ride - Mabry was a champ, mom in the back helped with that! We got to visit with Leah and little Edward and all of her family, Mr. and Mrs Dinkins, Jacob, Geraldine and their little Gus. We also got to see Mitch's old Jeepster! It was so fun to see something he loved and worked on and loved and worked on. I cannot believe Jacob and his family drove 3+ hours to ATL in it! I will post some pictures of Mabry in it later. Time to unload the rest of the bags and head to moms for dinner. Taylor is driving through town and wouldn't miss the opportunity to see one of my little deesters!
Hope everyone is doing well!
Love,
:-) L.A.

L.A.,
I love reading about Mitch in your blog. I didn't know him, but it's obvious how awesome the Drew family is and how much y'all love each other and love Mitch. Just wanted you to know that I check your blog from time to time to see pics of sweet Mabry. Hope y'all are doing well, I think of you often!
Much love,
Crimsonette!
P.S. You'll be proud to know that Coop and I did the FUNNIEST Crimsonette skit last week for our Bunco group. I twirled on the "field" (the back yard) and she was the band/prop runner. We had the other girls in tears! And the whole "crimsonette" thing started with you!
glad that y'all had fun in ATL. Mitch was there for sure! He would never miss a good time! I can see his smiling face right now. Can't wait to see the pics you took! miss ya!
