Happy Birthday LT!

Happy Birthday to my best friend, Leigh Taylor!!

Hope you've had a wonderful day!  We will have to celebrate very soon!

Heading to Salt Lake City in the morning and will be back shortly after to update you all!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Obagi

For those of you that know me, you know that I'm always on the lookout for great face products.  

Well, one of my sister's friends suggested a product called Obagi.  It's a wrinkle cream that works by peeling your face.  So in the end it gets rid of freckles, etc. and gives you a good complexion.  So of course I had to run out and get it.

Let me be the first to say that I'm embarrassed to go out in public with my face looking like it does.  No one warned me.  Not only does it make your face red and dry but it also makes your skin peel.  Yes, peel.  Week one completed and it looks as if I have a terrible sunburn.  My face hurt so bad two nights ago that I was almost in tears because it was so dry.  So I've begun researching (just a little late) the product and it has a six week "ugly" period; it takes a complete six weeks for the product to work but apparently you will have new, glowing skin when it is over.  These people even have support groups for the product-please tell me it's not that bad!  So I'll keep you all up to date on the status of how this is working.  And if you dare, venture out and get your own! 

Week one down, five more to go!

Congratulations Mark and Laura!

 One of my best friends, Laura, got married last weekend in Vicksburg and it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend! Laura was one of the most beautiful brides I've ever seen and I couldn't be happier for her and Mark, what a perfect couple! 

A Little Bit of Everything

Here are a few pictures from our recent vacay:

 The meat market in Progresso:

As we drove away, the lady proceeded to pick up an entire red snapper and dance around the shop with it.

Pure class I tell you.

 Senor Frogs

I sometimes wish that vacations were never ending.  I would like to say that sleep, drink, eat, repeat just about summed up our week.  Considering my pants wouldn't button the last night we were there due to the fact of over-indulgence throughout the week, I'd consider it a successful vacation.  A big thank you to Aunt Andrea for keeping my sweet little Soph! You are the best, Sophie misses you already!  

Home Again, Home Again

For a little while, that is.

I got back into the country on Thursday morning and spent the rest of the afternoon visiting with the Arkansas Vons.  It was so great getting to catch up with them; however, one afternoon was not enough and we greatly missed you Riles and Matt!  I worked Friday morning and headed to Vicksburg Friday afternoon for Laura and Mark's wedding weekend and returned to Meridian early this afternoon.  I spent the majority of my afternoon house hunting.  If you live remotely within the Meridian city limits and are a homeowner, I would love to purchase your home!  If you haven't looked lately, there are very slim pickings!  I am headed to Hattiesburg for work tomorrow and am hoping to be a better blogger when I return!

Updates and Such

Where do I even begin?

The past few weeks of my life have been a complete blur! Let's see, I spent last Friday night in Vicksburg and last Saturday night in Jackson for my sweet friend Laura's bachelorette party! We had so much fun and it was so great getting to see all of my friends for the weekend! I miss them so much and wish we could get together more than we do! I've got pics to post soon, I just haven't uploaded them yet! Work has been extremely busy and I've been working a good bit of overtime but I love my job so I can't complain!  

On the homefront, I found a new friend!

Apparently, this little guy has really taken a liking to the Mayer residence.  What he doesn't seem to realize is that this friendship isn't mutual. Maybe he will find a new home soon.

And speaking of home..I'm in the market for one!

I just happened to stumble across a really great find in an absolutely precious neighborhood, and it was a house that I just couldn't resist.  As I'm getting ready to make an offer, Inspector Harry made a few findings of his own.  So the house is a no go.  Back to square one.

Stumbling across a home was extremely unexpected and I was in no way form or fashion looking to buy a home, but it made me that much more aware of how truly ready I am to move out of my parent's.  I love them, and living with them has been great (not to mention the pool in the summer!) but I really miss living on my own.  

Here's to hoping the week flies by!  

Today starts my third week on anitibiotics and steroids, I've had a sinus infection that will not go away! Let's hope it decides to disappear soon because I'm Cozumel bound on Saturday!! We're headed on a cruise and will return on Thursday just in time for Mark and Laura's wedding weekend in Vicksburg! I absolutely could not be more excited!

Let the countdown begin..

In life, there are late bloomers and then there are just late bloggers.

It seems as if here lately, I just make for an extra late blogger.

However, I do have my reasoning.

The Plague has been circulating at work and apparently my co-workers decided it would be extra sweet of them to pass it right along! Needless to say, the past week and a half of my life has not been very blog worthy.

However, I'm headed to Vicksburg/Jackson this weekend to meet up with fun friends and will update you all again very shortly.

Here's to hoping you had a wonderful Memorial Day!
