Project 365 {2013} - Day 278

Sarah, Jaime & Laura

Vacation doesn't just mean sitting around eating bonbons! (Although, I have eaten my share of Laura's caramel crack!) I was itching to get a morning beach WOD (workout of the day) in with my sweat sistahs too!! I just love these ladies and am so grateful for their friendship!!

Sara, Jackie, Jaime, Laura & Sarah at Panama City Beach, FL

I love, love, love these ladies!! We have been having so much fun just hanging out, being carefree, talking, eating, relaxing and not worrying about a dang thing! It has been divine!!

Project 365 {2013} - Day 276

Late last night my friends Jackie, Sara, Laura, Jaime and I all arrived in Panama City Beach, Florida for a long Girl's Weekend. Jackie has a family friend with a condo right on the beach and so we all, thanks to our families for covering our behinds while we were gone, sneaked away for some relaxation! My life is so crazy and busy. I rarely feel like I have the chance to slow down. So being here, being still, taking life in, taking care of myself and enjoying views like this are breathing life back in to my weary soul! So grateful!!

Lulu woke up early all on her own this morning because she wanted to make her Momma breakfast in bed! I swear I have the best kids in the world!! I just love that Little Woman!!

Project 365 {2013} - Day 270

Justin, Devy and I had to sneak in a walk and soak up some of this beautiful sunshine before the big girls got home from school. I think Devy liked flying solo with Mom and Dad!

View from our walk tonight! Beautiful!

I got my first regular babysitting job when I was ten. I think it was a good opportunity to start learning independence and responsibility. One of the best parts of Maryn being ten years old now is that Justin and I can leave her in charge of her sisters while we sneak out for an evening walk around the neighborhood. She does such a great job and we are so grateful to her for it!

Project 365 {2013} - Day 266

Since our washing machine broke yesterday the girls have been held hostage with me while we catch up on some laundry this afternoon. In a family of six there is never any shortage of dirty laundry. This explains the excited "We've been stuck at the laundromat for three hours" faces. My life never has a dull moment I tell you, it seems like it's always something! But at least the sun is shining, it could be a lot worse!
