Had me a BLAST!
The last weekend of May, we watched my friend Amanda Maynard marry Brandon Brown. It was a very sweet ceremony, and the reception was at the Zoo! Very fun! We got a little hot, so we all jumped in the fountain (we followed our moms in!) We have been friends since about the 6th grade, and it was so awesome to be there!
The next weekend, we went to Pickwick to celebrate my friend's, Jonathan, birthday! We had a blast skiing, jet skiing, and wakeboarding! The top two pics on the left are a Mama and baby Ducks that were crossing at The Avenue! Newsom and his birthday cakes make up the center pic (I brought the Dog), and I am on the bottom right skiing. I am so mad my camera died before I got any pics of Luke! He is much better at skiing than I am, and he is awesome at wakeboarding! Sorry hubby!
Ah! The Beach! We once again had a fabulous week with my family at Perdido Key! As you can tell, we ate, laid out, repeat. It was a wonderful break from work, and I was able to read a book a day! I read the first two books in the Twilight Series (as of right now, I am Team Jacob), Paula Deen, a memoir (LOVE this woman), One for the Money, and Two for the Dough - both from the Stephanie Plum series(my boss recommended these to me before I left...about a woman bounty hunter-very funny!).
When we got home, we were greeted at our backdoor with our beautiful hydrangea bush! I use the term "our" loosely. The bush was here before we moved in, we have done nothing to it, and look at those blooms! The middle pic is my parents road. Isn't it jsut about the prettiest street in America? Thought so!
Luke's garden was also full of surprises when we got home. Yes, those are weeds between each plant. Well, more like grass, but our plants are still producing! Starting at the top left, okra, squash bloom, tomato, snap pea, bell pepper, Bandit the farmer, pepper, carrots, banana pepper, corn, cucumber, watermelon, jalapeno.
And finally, a giveaway! Who wouldn't love a new Beth Moore book! Check it out here!
A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing,
the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.
