Beach Bound!

Sorry for the lack of posts!

It's wedding season so I am busy editing lots

of wedding pics.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

We are beach bound...

TGIF

It's been one hell of a week and I am so glad it's the weekend!

What about y'all?

.

Graduation

I've gotten a few graduation announcements from the children of friends

I graduated High School with.

Either I'm old or they were hos in high school.

JUST KIDDING.

 

I'm so proud of these kids and their parents!

But I am a bit jealous that they have kids going off to college

and I am still working on baby #1.

.

So what do you think is the best graduation gift?

I thought back to when I was 18 and

I can honestly say money was the best gift.

I appreciated the flowers and little gifts,

but I really appreciated the monetary gifts.

So these lucky kids will be getting $50 Visa Gift cards to

spend however they'd like.

Weekend Recap

It's Monday again? Didn't we just have this last week?

I hate that I live for the weekends.

Monday - Friday I feel like I am just exisiting,

but when Friday rolls around it's like life has been restored finally.

Does anyone else feel like this?

This weekend was good & bad.

The good:

Friday was our employee appreciation day so 

after all the festivities at work, I took the rest of the day off.

I got to spend time with my niece!

I also managed to squeeze in a pedicure at the only

Podiatrist owned nail salon in GA.

Overpiced a bit but at least I know it's clean & sanitary.

I picked up this cute little new cup for myself.

Saturday the hubby & I took my mom to see

Quidam by Cirque du Soleil.

It was an amazing show and made

me wish I would have stayed in gymnastics.

Those gals & guys are quite flexible.

 

Sunday we spent most of the day with my hubby's family
and then went to my mom's house afterwards and hung out with her.

The bad news of the weekend:
I have a friend who's 3 year old daughter
choked to death on a hotdog.
I don't know all the specifics, other than
she choked on the hotdog last Friday, was put into a medically induced
coma all week, and then died this past Friday.

So please say a prayer for her, her husband, and other 3 kids!

Kitchen Update

Since the floors were finished, the next thing we were supposed to

do was repaint the entire kitchen.

Since I cant' decide on a color, we decided to go ahead and

at least purchase a new above the range microwave.

Hubby tried to install it himself....

but then we realized sometimes you just have to call in the pros.

So one phone call and a $100 later...

Voila!

My life in pictures

Bebe looks annoyed that I snapped a pic while she was lounging.

Weekend in ATL with mom & hubby.

Saw these in Macy's but they only had 1 pair left in a size 11!

Why!!!

Rihanna was AMAZING!

 

My sweet niece!

Throwback pic of my brother & I.

I love Ikea.

And I know I have to put stuff together from here.

But this was a LOT for 1 box! lol

My friend's husband makes these grills so

since we were shopping for a new grill anyways,

of course we bought from them.

It's amazing!

Sleeping Beauty...for now! :)
