Baby Shower - March 29, 2014

I felt like I had a straight face most of the day because I was so overwhelmed with gratitude during my baby shower.  It was beyond wonderful to have everyone gathered and to open gifts for KJ (short for Kevin, Jr.).

My mother worked tirelessly helping me turn my house into a home; my girlfriends arrived early and took care of pretty much all things shower related!  Hubby pitched in by picking up flowers and food (a big help!).

Here are the photos:

What I Wore: Maternity Leggings; Boston Proper Top bought on super sale; Dillards Boots; Necklace by Sarah C Jewelry and earrings by Elena Maratos.

Happy New Year's and Happy Birthday Beth

Kevin and I had a terrific time ringing in the New Year and celebrating Beth's Birthday!

Girls Weekend to Celebrate Mary's 40th Birthday

There are no words to express how thankful I am for some incredible girlfriends - all of whom I met through pageantry!!!

Here are some photos from our trip to Tampa during July of this year.


Cocktails at 9AM - it is 5PM somewhere as my friend Adam pointed out on facebook!

Local outdoor restaurant - we were hot, but needless to say, the dive bar/restaurant next to the bay had awesome seafood!

 PJ Time - you are never too old for a girlfriend sleepover

 

 Enjoying the St. Pete Bay next to the complex pool

and later this nice little shark (doesn't it look like a hammerhead?) came by - very, very close to where we were sitting in the water!

Girls weekend is not complete without a photo shoot (Kim and I must have taken 100 photos of each other!)

Ready for our limo to arrive and to hit the town ;-)

Happy Birthday Mary!!!

 Night 2 - time to chill out - we went to the restaurant at the pink hotel (where we will never stay because of the foreigners at the pool who do not share our opinions on appropriate displays of public affection.....none the less...you are welcome in the good ole USA anytime to spend money!)

 Goodbye St. Pete - thanks for a great weekend with the best girlfriends!  We are truly blessed!
