I went to the beach

Lori and I at the beach. I went in May. Before the oil got to the shore. I went with about 11 of my "closest" friends. Needless to say, the next I go I will be staying in a Much bigger house, or w/ fewer people. All in all, it was a relaxing trip. Nothing exciting, just shopping at the outlet malls and listening to the waves.

My Sister Got Married

My sister got married last weekend. It was a beautiful wedding. Everything went perfectly. Here are a few pictures I took with my little camera. Most of them were blurry, but a few turned out good.

My mom and the flower girl getting ready. You can see me in the mirror taking the picture. This is the only picture I have of the dress I wore in the wedding. I changed for the reception.

Matt and the groom cheesing at the reception.

My good friend Amanda. Her parents and mine are friends. They helped clean up at the church before the reception. Wow! Weddings take a crew!

A picture of a bunch of the girls. I wanted a picture like this. Took some effort, but I corralled everyone.

The videographer & my BFF Andy. We finally sat down and ate. The BEST hotel food I've ever had in Jonesboro for sure!

My cousin's son Sadler.

Bachelorette Party and The Bachelorette on ABC

We had my sister's bachelorette shin-dig a couple of weekends ago. She's getting married this weekend. We had dinner, then saw Sex and the City 2, then back to my house for a lingerie shower. We didn't get crazy, but she had fun. Here are some pics...

Engagement Ring cookies and bra & pantie cookies that Amanda made. Soooo cute and yummy!

This is my "dressing room", aka the master bedroom in my new place. I put my bed in the 2nd bedroom and use this room as dressing area. It's worked out really well so far. It's a big room and the master closet doubles as the laundry room. This way all of my clothes stay on one end of the house.

I bought those plates and punch cups at a living estate sale for my friend Molli's grandparents.

On another note: Is anyone else watching this season of The Bachelorette on ABC? I've been watching these shows for the past couple of years. Some seasons just don't have the entertainment value as others. This may be one of those seasons. Bachelorette Ali doesn't really seem very "into" any of the men. Except maybe Roberto. I have a feeling he'll be in it to the end.
