Catching Up

 
Our life has been pretty crazy since the last time I blogged, so let's catch up!
On Friday, John flew to North Carolina to pick up his little girl, I went camping up on our Uncles ranch with my parents, niece & nephew. My dad got a "side-by-side ATV" I forgot to take a picture of it, so I found this one on the internet just to give you an idea of what the heck I'm talking about.
 
It's awesome
We spent a couple hours cruising around on this, Dad even let me drive it! Shocker


My niece Riley & I on our way up to the Ranch


On Saturday it was my friends Wedding Day!!
She was beautiful, and so was the wedding.

Lawn Games
Cake Pops
Taco Bar - seriously AMAZING
Beautiful Bride
Great music


I've known Jasmine (the bride) for awhile, her sister Whitney is my best friend (top middle pic) I am so happy for her & Alex, they've been together since they were 14 years old!!
I'm so glad I was able to be there to celebrate with them!
Best Wishes Mr & Mrs Shields!

On Fathers Day we had a big lunch at my parent's house
BBQ Ribs
Corn on the cob
Baked beans (Dad's famous recipe)
Shrimp pasta salad
all the fix-ins for a great meal
YUM!

Every year I have the hardest time choosing a card for my dad, I either want to make him laugh, or make him realize how much I really love him. I usually go with the mushy ones but I actually bought him TWO cards this year because I couldn't help it, the card was too funny not to get.
I should have taken a picture, but.... I didn't, so i'll just explain it.
The front said
"Dad, you're like a Father to me"
the inside said
"No but really, I mean that"

All I could think about was the guy from the Hangover, so I had to get it.
My dad & I have a weird sense of humor, so we thought it was hilarious.
I spent the rest of the day relaxing in my parents backyard enjoying this fresh beverage


Let's hope that hour in the sun gave me a little color
I've decided against tanning beds (I spend my money on a lot of stuff, but spending money on skin cancer is not on my list).... and I haven't found a fake tan that I am brave enough to try...
If you're reading this, and you have a favorite "fake tan" lotion that doesn't make you orange and you can use it all over including your face- comment & let me know what it is cuz this girl is WHITE.
I need some color before my wedding (53 days!), or I'll blend in with my wedding dress.
Gross

So that was our crazy weekend
John &his daughter got home Monday at 2am....that story is coming soon :)
Let's just say, I love being a "step-mom"
Stay tuned!
