Labor Day!

O.K. so all I have to say is better late than never. Here are some pics from Labor Day weekend. Josh and I traveled to Tennessee to visit the fam. We had alot of fun.

Here we are at the Jack Daniel's Distillery in Lynchburg, TN.

Here Josh and I are with good 'ol Jack. Our tour guide said that the statue was not an actual representation. He was apparently a pretty small man.

Megan and her friend decided to put on a concert for us. It was absolutely adorable. Meet "Double Trouble."

Denise, Jason, and Daniel

Jason just being plan goofy!

Heather and Mitch are Getting Hitched!

Heather, a friend of mine since high school, is getting married August 9th. In honor of the big occasion, some friends and I threw her a wedding shower.

Me, Heather, and Tamara

Friends of the Bride

We played a game that involved the bride and groom answering questions to see how much they REALLY knew about each other. Here you are witnessing the LOSER.

Heather, I am so excited for you and Mitch. You both have truly found your perfect match. I feel so blessed to be able to be a part of your lives before and after getting married. I love ya girl!

Go Speed Racer, Go Speed Racer!

For those of you who don't know, once a month at War Memorial Stadium the parking lot turns into a race track. Cones are put up and men and women race their cars around the track trying to achieve the fastest time. Today, the fastest time was 34.4seconds. Our friend Kris has a boyfriend who races and she invited us to cheer him on.

Here Justin is racing with Kris in the passenger's seat. You may be asking, can anyone be in the passenger seat, well YES! Josh and I both got to take a ride with Justin around the track. It was freakin awesome!
Justin even let me drive his car around the track!!! NOT!

4th of July!!!!

We spent the 4th of July at Carol (Josh's mom) and Paul's house. We had a full house with Jason, Josh's brother in town and our dear friends the Campbell's (Imelda, Titus, and Lucas) joined us as well. We cooked out, played games, and just hung out. It was alot of fun.

Carol, Lucas, and Imelda

Jenny, Lucas, and Josh O.K. so Josh and I have heard it already. We look wonderful with a kid and it's time to have one. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!

The Happy Family! Lucas, Imelda, and Titus

Group Picture!

...and presenting Meredith Caroline!

My younger sister, Meredith, got her braces off on Tuesday! Isn't she beautiful!

I can't decide whether I am happy about it or not. She looks older to me and when a guy at a store thinks she is 21, well the over protective, older sister doesn't like that one bit.

Odds and Ends!

This was fun! Our cruise ship had a different party to go to every night and this night was Casino Night. We were told to find a particular cruise ship employee dressed like a girl. I ran, Josh took the snapshot, and we were the first ones to return to the host in charge of the game. We won $20 dollars to gamble in the casino. Ask me how much of that we walked away with! $15.

Our room steward made us an elephant out of our towel one night and I just had to get a picture. Go Republicans!

We met the most precious couple from Philadelphia, Nicole and Fred Mariash.

The Norwegian Gem! Isn't she a beaut!

French Riviera!!!!

Our last port of call was to the south of France. Wow, it was beautiful. We split our day between Monte Carlo, Monaco and Nice, France.

Monte Carlo Casino

We were told that no visit to the south of France is complete without a trip to Monte Carlo. We were promised nice cars and all. Although we only saw two Lamborghinis, a Bentley, and a Royles Royce we did see some awesome yaghts. Apparently the rich folk hop onto their million dollar yaghts, glide on over to Monte Carlo, and play in the casino all night. What a life!!!!

The beach in Nice, France was amazing. Crystal clear water, freezing, but crystal clear. If you look closely you will notice that there is no sand. The beaches are covered with pebbles. Surprisingly, we kinda liked it. They are rough on your bare feet, but no sand stuck on you and the rocks are kinda therapeutic. The sun warmed them quite nicely.
