Long Time, No Post!

I've been away for awhile! I cannot believe my last post was in January! I have so much to say!

Summer 2012 is finally here! I remember the quest to make each summer big and better than the one before it! This year, is am aiming for enjoying my summer! 

    I started out this summer with the most SURREAL experience ever! My partner in crime, Jamie Phelps along with our friend Brittany Clark, planned and operated the Twilight Girls Weekend Getaway in Gatlinburg, TN. 


Along with the 60 some women in attendance, we were blessed to have Kiowa Gordon, Booboo Stewart, and Bronson Pelletier partying with us!! It was one of the most incredible things that I have ever had the privilege of being a part of!

I met some of the most incredible women too! I have a tendency to nickname, so by the time we left the Smokies, 10 more ladies went home with names of their very own! Charlie Sheen, Tiger Blood, Dutch, Muskrat, and Smurf, just to name a few! 

Each of the guys had a "funniest" moment for me! Booboo and his dad had the misfortune of riding Boogertown Rd and Gnatty Branch Drive with us several times!! BooBoo's astonishment that the white lump next to the road was indeed a cow rather than a rock, had us cracking up, that boy nearly jumped through the windshield!! Bronson decided that he was so hungry on Saturday afternoon that he was just going to walk into town! I ended up driving him to lunch in my PJ's! And Kiowa.... after finishing the VIP event, he decided that the ladies needed some 'entertainment'!



We had the best time, and learned some tips for the future!! And call us crazy, but we plan to do it again next year!! 

After all that excitement, it was time to get back to reality and that means 'work' but I have found the honesty in, if you love what you do, it never seems like work! So instead I have found several ways to 'keep busy'!

I took a job nannying this summer to keep me occupied! Robert, Sara Grace, Lily, and Benton, are some of the most awesome kiddos ever! I am really enjoying the time and experience with them!


 I am getting a chance to put my Pinterest to work! I've already made a couple recipes, from scratch frosting and homemade pizza! They earned me thumbs up from all four! 






We have plans in the works for a bedskirt for SG's room! My best friend Rebecca's daughter has now become a pinpal for Sara, so I am thrilled to see that relationship develop! I am so excited to get started on all of our plans for the summer!! Yay for more crafty posts!  I am going to strive to keep the blog updated as well!! I ♥ sharing all of the little fun things that happen!!
