Everyday Holidays

(via)

My cousin Charley Ann was here this weekend
-with some friends-
*luckily*
the passing hurricane left us with beautiful weather
and we had fun on the beach
and in their super cute log cabin at the KOA

Day Three

Something that people might not know about me

~is that~

I keep very organized 

chronological photo albums

I love photos

I buy prints in bulk from snapfish.com

I would love to scrapbook

but blogging has kinda

*cured my itch for all that*

are some of my most

What a Weekend!

~I'm still trying to catch up with sleep~

I didn't run 

but my visiting family did

It was great seeing them

and partying

All over town

*next year we'll have a luau*

You can't pick your family.....

Lucky for me

I have the best family ever

                    1. Playing a Naughty Santa Ornament Game

                    2. Having a fabulous family dinner (not at the kids table)

                    3. Rice Krispie House contest

                          *complete with icing moustaches*

                    4. Pitchers of Red Rooster

                    5. Jersey Shore Hair Party

                    6. Sparklers!

They are Gods gift to you.

Family Weekend

(Charley Ann and I Christmas 2007) 

I am very excited for the weekend!

my cousin Charley is coming for a visit

and

I am going to an awesome bridal shower field day

*woot*

A new Family Tradition

My Cousin Charley Ann and I found a little fishing bobber at the lake

where the wedding ceremony was being held

*This little bobber went on an amazing wedding adventure*

He got to meet all sorts of interesting people

This is my Cousin Lauren and her super sweet Boyfriend Justin

(and the bobber)

The Bobber was able to try tons of new things

He seemed to really enjoy the crazy delicious Wedding Cake

(made by my Grandma)

Aunt Betsy + Bass Beer+ Bobber= Best thing ever

My Cousin Ashton shared her plate

*Cheers*

~Even Grandma played along~

Its time for a haircut

My Cousin is getting married on the 21st

which is very exciting!

I can't wait to spend time with my family

and boyfriend gets to meet everyone!

I need to get my haircut next week

so I can look extra spiffy

All I need now is bangs
