Happy Birthday, Mr. Deese

A few weeks ago, we celebrated the 29th birthday of Mr. Deese!! We ate outside at one of his favorite places & went dancing...all with great pals. So fun! Yes, he's 29 but he still wanted to see Toy Story 3 in 3D so, that's exactly what we did. Fantastic movie! Happy Birthday, Mr. D!

Summer Camp...Nothing Like It!

We love our job. I mean really. It's such a privilege to say be able to say that. A few weeks ago we had the amazing opportunity to work with the high school students of FBC Woodstock, GA at their summer camp in Cocoa Beach, FL. It goes down in the books as my favorite summer camp in the 7 years we've been on the road. The students were unbelievable and the leadership team rocked it out! We left Cocoa Beach refreshed with a renewed passion for students and new relationships! I'm always humbled that my Savior would choose to use us. It's an honor to serve Him!

My days were spent like this...

Happy 7th Anniversary, Mr. Deese!! You make me very happy & you have my heart!

A note to Simon

Simon Cowell, I'm sad to say goodbye. I will miss your wonderfully sarcastic comments said in that perfect British accent, the cute little wink you give on occasion & how adorable you look in a crisp white dress shirt. Thanks for the entertainment you've provided Jan-May for 9 years! It surely will not be the same without you & I hope you grace my living room again in the near future. You made us love you...we didn't wanna do it!

My favorite place...sand & sea

What's the best way to spend a birthday? At the beach with a bunch of girlfriends! So, since this is the fact, that's exactly what we did for my friend Casie. Some super fun girls piled up with our suits & sunscreen for a few days in Destin. I've never...laughed so much, eaten so yummy or danced so hard!! LOVE making memories like this!!

At my favorite restaurant (I seriously dream about this place)

Best sushi ever

THE most amazing salad. I know what you're thinking...it's just a salad but it's SO not!

How do you eat this thing?!?!

We ran into a fun group of girls from Texas & the friend who couldn't make their trip packed herself in their suitcase. Clever!

Good times in Walmart & yes, I'm fully clothed under that thing!

The one & only: RED BAR

Celebrating Baby Nease

Our sweet friends, the Nease's, will welcome a baby boy into their world very soon! There's no better way to celebrate than with a bunch of friends, good food & all things blue! Can't wait to meet this precious boy! The funniest thing that happened...to save the soon to be mommy some time, our friend Hillary composed the thank you note to go with her gift! Good one! :)

Doctor's Note

Seeing as I've been out of commission for a while, I thought it best to present a doctor's note or, rather, a "doctor's" photo. I know it's blurry but it's the best I could do. I suppose some would refer to me as "super" nanny but I think of myself as the little old lady who lives in her Yukon. Just in case you wondered where I've been...
