Punkin Head

Here you go Pops... here is the epic pumpkin I carved.
Pretty Scary Huh?!

Bowling Party

There are tons of things I do well.. and bowling is one of them:) The other night some friends all met up for some bowling fun. Always a good time. And yes I did win both games.. because I'm just that awesome.. and modest.

Painting Pals

Lauren and I went to another painting class together, we love to paint. This time it was a beach scene. I named mine... "son of a beach".

Reality Check

Because sometimes I forget how lucky I am...

Finally!

Today I finally got to lounge around at my parents pool! I love love love it! The landscaping still has to be finished. But other than that its lovely!

The Pool is filling!

Goodness I am so stoked. The pool is filling. Brandon has already been in. They turn the waterfall pump on this Friday and then the landscaping is in the works. Cant wait to swim! WOOOO! WOOOO!

Peachtree 2011

Keeping with tradition Chris and I did the Peachtree Road Race to start off our 4th of July. This year our goal was to run! And while we couldn't run the whole thing (we had to walk up cardiac hill and slow to a walk when we grabbed some water). We ran the rest of it:) Doug, Lauren, Britt and Eric came to watch us. And since James and Megan had an earlier start time than us we all met up after to go grab some brunch! Happy 4th of July! WOOOOO!

Happy Birthday Nick

Saturday Night we all went out to celebrate Nick's birthday. We started at Fontaine's in the highlands, then bar hopped at Moes & Joes, Neighbors, and then finally ending the night dancing at The Warren. So fun! Happy Birthday Nick!

Really Late Spring Cleaning

It has been so long overdue, but I finally cleaned my closet. Getting rid of 4 trash bags of clothes, and one of shoes and purses. So now I am left with a lot less clothes and space. Can't wait to refil it:)


Who Knew that my closet had a floor. :)

Bagel Time

It has been pretty slow at work this past week so Analia and I decided to make some bagels for breakfast. They were so good!

Completely Simple. First you make and shape the dough. Refrigerate the bagels overnight. Boil them in honey and water. And then bake them in the oven. Voila!

Bird Song Ring

I was at Francesca's Boutique the other day and came across this really cute ring. So cute I had to have it! It's 4 rings that stack together to create a little bird scene! LOVE IT!

Maroon 5 - Never Gonna Leave This Bed
