I’m just elated at my job and although many of my *new duties have not begun, I know this is where I belong. I’ve always been proud to say that I’m an Auburn Alum, but now I can say I’m an Auburn Employee! WAR EAGLE! *I was doing this job as a temp before being hired full-time.
Today we took Drew to the orthodontist and he’ll be getting braces in the next few weeks. Here’s the sheet we got that shows all sort of pics of him and his toofers.

My most recent taste test item was the Newton’s Fruit Thins. They sent me the Fig & Honey flavored cookies. They have a really good taste, nothing overwhelming. These thin cookies had a nice smooth texture, not grainy like I had expected, with the perfect hint of honey and tiny chunks of fig. Although, I’m not a fan of fig newtons, I really enjoyed these! Click here to see the other flavors available. As part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I received Newton’s Fruit Thins to create this post.

{one} how many times have you been a bridesmaid/maid of honor? I’ve been a bridesmaid one time for my best friend from high school. The sad part…I don’t have any pictures from that day. 🙁 {two} what’s the last thing your do before you fall asleep at night? It depends what day it is. If it’s a day that I work, that means I get home after midnight, so I drive home, change clothes, have a little snack and watch tv before retiring to the bed. Nights I don’t work, I usually lay in bed with Rob and watch Fox…

Lake Martin is man-made; formed by the construction of Martin Dam on the Tallapoosa River. It spans across Alabama counties: Tallapoosa, Elmore and Coosa. A 44,000-acre lake with over 750 miles of beautifully wooded shoreline. Lake Martin is a great place to swim, boat, fish, water ski, and camp. It’s a great quick getaway for many Alabama residents, especially those in Auburn. Source With it only being about a 30 minute drive from our house, it makes for a great day trip. This year our friends invited us back to Lake Martin for a Memorial Day celebration. Some other friends…
