Beach Bum...

...back in action!

Well, as you probably figured out we ended up not having an Internet connection in our condo at the beach! Therefore I was unable to blog, which was sad because I was all pumped about blogging while I was gone and now I sit here in the sweltering heat of Tennessee without much inspiration! Perhaps that is because the cord that allows me to load my pictures onto my computer is somewhere in Mom's stuff in Chattanooga! :-) It is, so far, the only thing I discovered that I had "forgotten" when I packed up and headed back home! I am just thankful it made it home in her stuff and didn't get left on Tybee! This just means that you have to wait for fun pictures and stories from the beach! Mom is mailing my cable back to me, so sometime this week or next I'll share pictures from the beach!

In the mean time, I have just been catching up on all of your blogs and all of my emails! Great fun!!

I just recently had a friend from "way back" in high school join the blogging world. Ariel and I were practically inseparable in high school. As we moved on to college and then careers we haven't stayed as close as we once were, but we do manage to catch up on email about once a year or so! We will certainly stay in better touch now that she has joined the blogging world. You can click here to check out her page! And from her page I also discovered another great high school friend, Melissa, is on blogger as well! Melissa just added a new addition to her little family, so you can go check out her little princess by clicking on her name!

I will wrap up with a shout out to two of my bestest blogging beauties!!! Please check out Lauren's blog if you get a chance! She did a wonderful post about Leigh Ann's sweet Evan and the Walk for Autism we are helping with in September! It's not too late to get involved, walk, donate, or just pray for a big success! Click "here" to link to our page about "For The Love Of Evan" walk team! My other shout out goes to Evan's mom and a dear friend of mine, Leigh Ann! I am so, so, so proud of her! This past week she spoke at the capital building in Arkansas about Autism and shared Evan's story to help raise awareness and further the cause! I know it took a lot of courage to get up there in front of all of those legislators and others and bear your heart LAH, I am so proud of you!

Stay tuned for beach stores and pictures, they'll be coming soon! In the mean time I am retreating to the coolness of my living room where I will likely park my behind on the couch for a little bit to enjoy some fruit tea and the ceiling fan! Is is so so hot and humid where you are, because here in the 'boro it is quite uncomfortable!!
