Hey, friends! I'm about to head to Mom and Dad's to watch the last half of the NBA World Championship basketball game... GO THUNDER!! At the moment, I'm eating a Pioneer Woman peach dumpling (YUM) and writing this lovely blog. =)
So without further ado, here's a recap of recent photos and events... starting with this throwback to hanging out with Sarah and Chettles (and Nancy and puppy Shiloh and other LG friends and cute kids and firemen) at the Eugene Field cookout SIXTEEN years ago!!
The Walmart bakery did a rough job writing on this one, but yay for Rach being a Certified Professional Coder! Here's hoping she can find a great remote job that starts in early fall!
Jeffrey Edward took a very hot walk from the Wynn to the Bellagio to send an awesomesauce Vegas fountains video last week... it was Celine singing My Heart Will Go On, so that's my favorite place, favorite singer, and favorite movie all at once!! He's there for another work event this week, planning a Mon Ami trip, and it's all inspiring me to go to Vegas again (when it's a little cooler outside there).
Speaking of inspiring, this is Ali, one of my CCU classmates during last year's internship course...
She recently went on a 10-day, 110-mile oceanside backpacking pilgrimage/hike from Portugal to Spain... Google says "the Camino de Santiago, also known as the Way of St. James, is a network of pilgrimage routes leading to the shrine of the apostle Saint James in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain." She had read something about that being a pilgrimage to honor your ancestors, so she made a video every night talking about their day's journey and highlighting one of her parents/grandparents/great-grandparents with a few facts, memories, and stories about their lives. She did this for her 50th birthday... they arrived today, and she dedicated the final video to her children and grandchildren. I've been so inspired watching her videos - I absolutely love it - and now I wanna do this too, so who wants to join me!? You have 8.75 years to decide. lolol I'm adding it to my Life List, for real!
Happy 12th Anniversary to Chet Lee and Karli Marie today!!
From their fav third-wheely single fran! lol
I adore and admire them, and I'm grateful for their friendship and loads of fun memories together!
Shifting gears, I got a box of peaches from the Peach Truck on Friday! Nom nom for us, David!
I spent Friday night washing all of my fake hair, which turned out to be a more intense and time-consuming project than I'd imagined. lolol It's a blond and dirty blond set of clip-in Cashmere extensions (as seen on Shark Tank) + the red Halo Couture extensions. Now they're all fresh and ready to go! =)
Saturday morning was an 11am Princess Tea Birthday for Katherine Claire!!
So much cuteness!
Kate wanted donuts instead of cake, and that was a hit and a little easier for serving!
Chet humming the song on Sarah's shirt made me laugh - an old school favorite of his for sure!
The Fulton fam... this turned out really cute!
Karli and Tate were at another birthday party that same morning. I joined Teresa and Parker and Chet for ice cream at the Sand Springs Braums... literally all of us were planning on twist fro-yo, but their machine was broken. #lamesauce
Group pic!
I randomly decided on the Tulsa outlet mall for my afternoon 5k walk... huzzah for ApplePay and pretzel nuggets and shade and air-conditioned stores I could pop in and out of!!
After that, Laura Allison and I had dinner at Cava and a 5-hour chat catching up on all of life!!
Today I met Kristin for lunch at Hideaway, then did a neighborhood walk 5k, then the Whitaker fam stopped by and Frankie got rid of the dirt dobber nest inside my garage! "And then a hero comes along..." lol I'd love for the family of bunnies to stick around, but I'm very happy the stinging insects are gone now!
The aforementioned peach dumplings... really good! (Recipe HERE)
And now I'm ready to Thunder Up one last time this season... let's freaking go!! #maximumeffort
(Also, new AE jean shorts - yay!)
Okay, friends! I love you and believe in you, and I hope the feeling is mutual! =)
❤ ❤ ❤
