HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

What are you going to BEE this year??

4 YEARS AGO TODAY...

Happy Anniversary to my my wonderful husband, Josh. I can't believe it has been 4 years!! Time is definitely flying. We are excited about our trip this week - DC here we come!!

UF vs. UAB w/ THE ADAMS

Last month we got to make a trip with our friends Ryan and Laura down to Gainesville for the Florida/UAB game. We thought it would be a great time to show our friends around Jax and Gaines-vegas and a fun game to go to since it was both of Josh's alma-maters :). We drove in late Friday night (as usual) stayed with my Mom Friday night. Saturday consisted of a full tour of Jacksonville and Gainesville, the game Saturday night and then staying with Josh's parents Saturday night.

During our tour of downton Jax - we remembered that Laura Street crossed Adams Street near the main library - we promptly headed that way, parked and had Laura Adams and Ryan Adams pose for these pictures - how cute!

Do you think there is a "Hewiett" street anywhere? If we find it... you better believe we will be posing for a picture like this one.

For lunch on Saturday, we got to eat at one of our favorite places in Jax - Mojo's BBQ. We met up with Ben, Jess and their sweet baby Charlotte. It was so good to hang out with the Whitworth's. Apparantly it is an extremely small world - Ben and Jess also grew up in Bham (like Ryan and Laura). Ben's family went to the same private school that Ryan and Laura went to - his sister was in their class and they were really good friends.

So glad we got to see the Whitworths - I miss them :(.

Outside Ben Hill Griffen Stadium - I don't think Josh and I have a picture like this one :)

In the swamp - do you spy two Auburn fans trying to blend in with their subtle tones of blue?

We had a lot of fun trying out our new camera on this trip - Josh and I just got a nice DSLR Canon camera and are still learning how to use it. This trip to Florida was the first time we have used it.

Needless to say, this game was a blowout (39-0). Poor UAB. This was before we lost our first and second string quarterbacks to injuries... our games lately have not been so pretty.

We were so excited about this trip and so glad that we got to spend time with good friends, see some great football and once again see our wonderful family.

FALL (AND PINTEREST)

Fall is FINALLY here. Enough said. Also - (and I know I am slightly behind the times - I blame this summer) I have discovered PINTEREST. It is amazing. Below I have for you some FALL inspiration for home decoration I have gathered on pinterest. Enjoy.

If you are not on pinterest - get on it!! It could change your life. Also - it is supposed to get back up to 85 degrees here tomorrow. Boo. However, we must press on - fall is here and hopefully will show its face again soon.

JACKIE'S SHOWER

Two weekends ago I made a quick trip back to Jax (cashing in some Southwest points - yeah!) for Jackie's baby shower. I was so glad to be able to go home and spend the day with my sweet friends. To the left is a picture of Jackie, Paula and I after the shower - Jackie looks amazing!! She is due in the middle of November and we have all taken bets on when her sweet baby boy will come - I am hoping for November 10 (my birthday, of course.)

It is hard to believe that only last year... Jackie and Billy were getting married!! I am so excited for them and can't wait to meet this sweet addition to their family. The next time we are home in Jax may not be until Christmas and we will hopefully get to meet the little guy then.

Trips like this are so sweet, but definitely too short!! Makes me miss being in Florida and close to my family and friends...

Speaking of trips - I (thankfully) do not currently have any work travel planned... the next big trip will be Josh and I's anniversary trip to DC!! We actually leave in a week and 2 days!! We are stoked, to say the least. We are excited to get away (together) and see the sites.
