Busy summer begins!

So at the end of May, Jonathan went to New Orleans for a week to work on a project for work. He brought back some Cafe du monde delish coffee which I am still enjoying this morning. :) I flew to Bham to be there for mom's retirement recognition on that Thursday which I was blessed to be there for that special time. Mom has been at ASFA for 28 years and she is finally saying goodbye. I have many memories of that school and we have been such a part of her career so it was bittersweet to end those chapters.

Jonathan met me in Bham on Friday and we enjoyed spending time with family and friends. We were able to go to our friend Jenny and Jacob's wedding which was beautiful. Sunday, we enjoyed a day out on the lake with Dad, Kathy, Lacy, Eric, Zach & Margaret. Jet skis and tubing was pretty intense considering it's been over five years since i've been tubing! We attended graduation for Ethan and Jessica on Monday night and got to have a celebration dinner with both. Congratulations Graduates!!

The next weekend, we enjoyed our long weekend catching up on laundry and chores. Monday was Memorial Day so we ventured out on a kayaking trip. We got to see many manatees, dolphins, sting rays, fish & other creatures swimming alongside of our kayak. We spent most of the day on the water and stopped at the country club to have a picnic lunch. It was so much fun!

This past week was incredibly busy for me...we had two events at work and I was on cruise control. It was chaotic and stressful right before the event so I had the sweet company of the little dog named bean who hung out with me in my office. Friday was our Casino Night which is a lot of fun but I was worn slap out by Friday at 11pm when we got home. With that said, we got up early and headed out to the port for the hot rod power tour show. Jonathan LOVED it which made me happy- we took a lot of pictures but here are a few to enjoy...
