Well, wouldn't you all say it's about time for a new post? Sorry...I'm really bad at this.
We went to the beach a few weeks ago...you'd think I would've posted pictures from that trip, but wonderful parent that I am, I really didn't take that many. There are a couple of cute ones that I took of the kids...from behind! They're looking out at the ocean. I didn't know that anyone really cared much about looking at my kids back sides! We had a good time with my family. We're going back July 12 with Jarrod's side of the family, and I'm planning on doing a lot better with the camera!
Things have been hectic around here, as usual. Between working, carting kids to and from VBS, fever viruses, and WALKING...let me just fill some of you in on the walking, in case you haven't heard. Me and 5 of my girlfriends from church are doing the 3 day, 60 mile breast cancer walk in Atlanta on Oct. 24-26. We'll be walking 20 miles a day for 3 days. We started training in May. It's going well...and I'm enjoying growing my friendships with these girls as we walk miles and miles and miles in preparation for our big weekend. This morning, we walked 6...that's the longest one so far. It feels good to be done with it for the day, and it's such a sense of accomplishment! Also, let me thank all of you have donated to the cause!!! Our fundraising has been very successful! (and if you'd still like to donate, let me know and I'll tell you how!!) I just think it's going to be a life-changing experience, and I'm looking forward to it. Keep us in your prayers!
Also, may I just say HAPPY 10th ANNIVERSARY TO MYSELF! Today, yes, I realize it's Friday the 13th, is our 10th wedding anniversary. That sounds like such a long time! It's been a great 10 years, and I look forward to many more. I'm singing in a wedding this weekend, so we've got the rehearsal tonight and wedding tomorrow, but we're still managing a mini-retreat. Jarrod made all the arrangements for us to spend the night in Florence's nice, new Marriott Hotel/Spa tonight. Check out isn't until NOON, so I intend to stay there until precisely NOON and enjoy all the child-free time!
That's it...really exciting post...but something new, anyway! I always say that I'll try to do better...maybe this time, I really will! I'll certainly have some birthday and beach pictures to post next month if I don't get to anything sooner! Macy's birthday is July 9, we leave on July 12 for the beach, and my birthday is July 14...How lucky am I to get to celebrate my birthday at the beach! Yippie!! I'm sure y'all will be waiting with eager anticipation for pictures of Macy's birthday cake this year! I'm not sure what she's having yet...right now, I think she's leaning toward a flip-flop cake. We shall see!
Have a great weekend!

I was surprised to see a new post. Happy Anniversary!! I can't believe it's been 10 years. And you know if you don't take a bunch of pics at the next beach trip, I will have a ton of both of our kids I'm sure. By the way, you forgot to mention how you get to spend your birthday at the beach with ME. How lucky are you ;) Well, I hope you have a great weekend. Talk to you soon.
Happy Anniversary! What a nice retreat your sweet hubby has planned. And two trips to the beach?!?! I am so jealous. I am so impressed with all the walking. It makes me short of breath just to think about it. You go girl!
Happy Anniversary! Bring on the barbecue! :) Oh, I have a pattern/photo for a flip flop cake if you want it. I'll just send it to you.....
Happy Anniversary! Can't wait for the pictures.

Happy Anniversary! Isn't the Marriot lovely?! Never been there without the kids, so you've enjoyed it even more than I have! :)
Can't wait to see pics of the front of your kids, although I did love the pics otheir backsides, too.
