The Help

I was so happy to end my Birthday with a girls night out to the movies to see The Help.
We cried. We laughed. We drooled over all the cute vintage clothing, furniture, and accessories.



If you haven't seen it you need to call up all your cute girlfriends and get your butt to the movie theater. You won't be dissapointed.

Gratitude

"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it."
-William Ward

Today I felt a lot of gratitude. It may have been sparked from all the sweet cards I received in the mail from friends and family this week. The kind words of love and support that made me feel like a hundred bucks. Whatever it is I cant let it go unsaid.

I'm grateful for a kind husband that works so hard in the hot hot heat everyday without one complaint. Just for us. Who comes home and yet under a lot of stress treats me with utter kindness. Who Loves me for me and all of me.

I'm grateful for family members that I can call my best friends. Who would literally do anything for me. Who love and support me no matter what.

I'm grateful for my friends that bring out the best in me. Who are always there for me. Who make me laugh till tears come out. Who can put a smile on my face on a bad day.

I'm grateful for the gospel. For Prayers being answered. For the love of a heavenly Father.

I'm grateful for a happy life. For a healthy body. For happy memories.

I'm Grateful.

Weekend Getaway

Saturday night rolled around and we {Josh, Adam, Jenny and I} had decided it was time for another spontaneous trip. We packed our little bags and just a few hours later took off for the perfect weekend getaway in Pensacola.

Highlights of the trip~

Singing and dancing in the van
The perfect weather
Riding Wave Runners
Buying great big floats and a boat
Jenny making a music video in the boat
Swimming out to "the deep water"
Freaking out like children once we all got to the deep water
Trying to fit all four of us in the mini boat and failing
Float surfing the waves with Jenny
Dinner at Flounders
Walking the pier at midnight while lightening lit up the sky
Watching shark week in the hotel


























We have been on a lot of weekend trips together but we all decided this was BY FAR the best one

Girls day

I realized today that this summer has been one of my favorites of all time. Not only because I have had the time of my life, but because of the girls I have spent my days with. I feel like we have made some lasting friendships this year and some really hilarious memories. This week we decided to have a fun girls day out to say farewell to our sweet friend Kate. We had a delicious lunch at CPK, drooled over all the cute clothes at the Perkins Rowe mall, and stuffed our faces with yummy beignets. I will miss these carefree summer days and these sweet girls I have spent them with!

Pool time

When the Sun comes out us wives head to the pool. There is no better way to catch some rays than laying in the water on our fabulous bright floaties.






This week we came up with the grand idea of racing on those floaties..




On your mark....


Get set.....


Gooooo!

We love Pool time.
Thanks girls for another perfect Summer Day!
