Congratulations Byron and Sarah!!!

Getting in the car!

Sarah on the way to the ceremony!!

I was so honored to be a part of their special and rain-free day!! I will miss both of them so much, but so excited for their new journey!!! Love you guys!!

I'm a big girl now!

I bought a townhouse!!

More pictures to follow, but just thought I'd give a view of the front and back!

And just wanted to give a shout out to my neice Ava. I went to her dance recital on Sunday and was just so amazed at how excited she was, how great she did, and how fearless she was! She has made my name mean so much more (Aunt Jennie), she brought our family together and my heart melts everytime she runs in to my arms for hugs. Her giggles brighten my day, her smiles tell how much love she has to give. I get so excited when I know I get to see her again! She is my buddy and my favorite neice!!! Can't wait for the beach this year Ava!! I love you so much!

The month of April!

Here are some pictures of things going on in my life lately...

And the lovely couple themselves...I miss them oh so much!

Now my next exciting venture is that I am house hunting!!!! (Well townhouse)

Things are getting pretty deep and I have been looking at several, just very overwhelming at the whole idea, but it is time to do it and I am so excited!! Please pray that I make the best decision! And me and the family go to the beach in a MONTH!? It is a lot sooner this year and having something to look forward to makes the work week a lot brighter! Even after the awful weekend I had, a total of 21 hours of work this weekend. One hour of sleep on Sunday night and worked 8 hours on Monday!! So, that was the worst weekend of my career so far! I'm sure there will be others!

I love beautiful Spring days.

Did God know what he was doin' or what?!

This was my view from my blanket...

OH and....GO HEELS!!!!!

My weekend...

GO TAR HEELS!!!

Here are a few pictures from a photo session with Byron and Sarah, my friends who are getting married in May. It was fun, let me know what you think of them!

There are many more...you can look at yocumbranch.com

Do I have a future with photography???

Most Wonderful Time of The Year!!

This has been a GREAT week! Alison came "home" this week and spent some time with us and at church and after church. She came over to the house when she got here while Katie, Anne, and Sarah, and me were all there to catch up a bit. We went to Kimonos for dinner since that is Alison's favorite!

Church was really great, it seemed like everyone was there! I got some good pictures of Francesca and her parents. And after church a few of us went to getice cream! It was so wonderful to have Alison here and it really felt like the old days that I miss so much. Me, Sarah, Katie and Alison stayed up well past 12:30 am talking! So we were all SO tired on Thursday!! But Thursday was Match Day so I think everyone was too excited and anxious to be so tired! BUT BK is going to be at Wake for his Anesthesia Residency, so we might get to work together! But, Byron got in to San Antonio, which he and Sarah are both so excited about, but selfishly I would love for them to stay as well! But I did get to see them after they opened their letters and was just so excited for their new journeys!! Congrats to everyone!!

Thursday night we went out for my friend from work Amanda's birthday dinner and we had a really nice time. I had my friend Gina make a cake for her after seeing a cake made for a friend from church that I LOVED! And here was the finished product and just some pics from last night!!!

The layout is a little weird...I have to figure out how to get it looking better!! Any hints??

And tomorrow....me, my dad and brother are all going to the Carolina NCAA game tomorrow!!!! SO SO SO excited about that!!!!!! I will definately take some pictures from that!!! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!

Great times!

This week has been pretty good and busy. Sunday night I went over to the Mills house to eat dinner and play games. I love it when Brittany comes home and when she brings friends. Brittany was my only friend during a time when I needed one the most a few years ago, so she means the world to me!! La Burrrrrrrrito!! Tuesday night I went over there again and had a great time! Took some pictures below...

Last night was GREAT! Got some amazing news from my best friend! WOO!!

Tonight we had Bible study and it was so great to have Brittany and Jenifer there. They hung in there with me, Katie, and Alison for 4 years of Bible study, which its future is now uncertain, since our 3 girls are seniors in high school now. It has been a great 4 years of weekly bible study, lots of tears, laughs, stories, growth, love, FOOD, sister-hood. It's all bittersweet for me, being the sentimental young lady that I am! This weekend should be pretty busy. Friday night I'm going to see my friend Luke's band. Saturday we are all going to Hillbilly Hideaway! Sunday is church of course then the youth group is coming over for their devo! I'm thankful to stay busy with good things!
