Wedding Weekend!

This past weekend me and my girls went down to Jekyll for a wedding for a woman that is very special to me. My little Lori who's not so little anymore. We had a great time and enjoyed the sights, seafood and the freezing water!! I acutally worked too! I photographed the wedding :)


This picture is how I think of Lori (2004). Me, on the other hand was dressed up for an 80s party so please excuse the makeup and hair! :)

I taught public school as an art teacher for 6 years and one of the greatest connections I made during those years was with Lori, my student. Never did I think seeing her sitting in my classroom paisting and painting that we would become such great friends, peers, and confidants. I love her so much! I do believe that meeting Lori was worth all those days of stress, tears, and begging for art supplies.



This was Lori last Saturday!


I am so happy for the both of you, as I told you "twice" this past weekend! haha! I love the both of you and I am looking forward to the future and being in our 70s while still having our monthly cookouts!


Four girls, one hotel room, one bathroom, causes for extreme closeness! haha! Love you girls!

Freaky Friday!

Friday night me and three of my friends gave Lori a bachelorette/lingerie party! We had so much fun!


We had the best cake ever made by April , Lori's Sister. It was AWESOME!


Here is Lori modeling the cake for us!


The four best hostesses ever and the guest of honor! Kristin, Joy, Lori (the bride), Catherine (me), and April.


Lots of great presents. Some I wouldn't want to post for all the world to see.


Lots of pretty drinks to quench our thirsts!


We had another guest of honor! ;)
I have censored to photo to protect his identity!


Apparently Kristin can't drink Jessica under the table....only herself! :)


The last ones of us that made it to the end, a.k.a. the wee hours of the night, somehow ended up on the floor. Always a sign that it was a great party!

The Perry Fair!

Owen and Daddy


We took little Owen to the Perry Fair on Sunday! It was a blast! I was truly suprised at how much he loved riding all the fast stuff! I thought we were going to just ride simple, easy kid rides...oh no! He loved the crazy kid rides! I am so glad that he is getting to the age that he is so interactive and loving the world.


Owen and his Papa on our way into the fair.


Me and Owen riding atleast one easy ride!


Getting ready to go for a drive!


Yes. That is me and Owen on a roller coaster!


Who knew 1 1/2 year olds liked this kind of stuff?
