 HEY Y'ALL! I'm sorry it's been so long since I've updated. I just find it hard to find the time to sit down and think of somethin good to post.haha ANYWAY, Devon has 7 weeks left in her pregnancy. It's gone by SO fast. Well, for me at least. They're namin the little guy Anthony Rylan Collins. The third Anthony...awwww He's gonna go by Rylan though. I'm so excited y'all!!! AHHH!!! The other day me and my mother went over to TJ and Devon's house to check out the baby's nursery. Tj's been painting it and Devon's gettin everything set up. I've already decided I'm gonna be Rylan's favorite aunt ever....hahahah Today my adorable little sister Callie and I came to our grandma's house to hang out and spend some quality time with her. We went to Opry Mills where I recorded yet again another cd in the little recording booth thingy. I've been doin that since I was like 13. Yeah so that was fun..and then we stopped by the ever-so-amazing Walmart and lastly went to my favorite restaraunt in the world, O'Charleys. So now we're just hanging out at the house.........On another note, our family is going back to Florida again this summer. We're going May 18th-25th..I'm so excited!! I love the beach with a passion...Tj, Devon, Rylan, and maybe my Aunt are going with us....So that's something to look forward to...Ok everybody, well this is about all I can do for tonight. I hope y'all are all doing fantastic............Love to all, Erica
