I'm posting this about 6 days before Rachel is actually leaving, but if I don't do it now, I'm not sure if I can do it later! Rachel "Ray" and I became friends a little over 2 years ago while she was working in the ticket office. Since then, she has become one of my very BEST friends, and I have made through so many tough times with her help. She has listened to me whine, cry, pout, ha..everything you can think of. We have shared so many fun times too!! From the beach, to scanning tickets at games, to rolling off the exercise ball at the gym (Rachel!!), to snow cones after the pool..I could go on and on. I couldn't have asked for a better friend, and I can look back at these past 2 years with a huge smile--and a tear--and I am so thankful that I've had Rachel around.

Happy Father's Day!
This weekend will be a tough one, as Sunday (Father's Day) will be exactly one year since my daddy passed away. I am going home today to spend the weekend with my mom and sisters. I almost can't believe a year has gone by already. We couldn't have done it without our friends and family!!

My Current Favorite Things
Number 1 on my list would have to be Lifetime's Army Wives. Such a wonderful show! I watched it last season, and I was so excited for this past Sunday's Season 2 premiere. I look forward to it every week. I think every woman (and men too!) should watch this show. It is funny, sad, sweet, inspiring, touching...one of my favorite shows in a long time! I think my favorite character is Roxy. She's a southern girl from Alabama, and her husband is cute too! Ha.

X is for XYZ..I'm done!
I saw someone else do this with the alphabet game, and now I understand why. While this has been fun, it has also been a little more difficult than I first imagined. X,Y, and Z would be hard to figure out anyway, so I'm done!

W is for Whoo Hoo..We survived Camp!!
I did it!! I survived my first year at dance camp. It was very hard work, constant running around, and exhausting, but we had a GREAT time. I could not be more proud of my girls. They were great spirits and worked so hard. It is amazing to see how far we've come since last year. We brought home several awards! We got 2nd place in the home pom routine, an all-superior trophy (we had at least 85% in superior ribbons on evaluations), 4 of them made All-Star, and we were given the "rock star" award. The rock star award was given the first night by the staff. They chose a squad that just showed great spirit, worked hard, etc...Friday night that squad passed it to another, then they passed it on Saturday, and yesterday Brandon High School passed it to us. The girls were so excited. I am glad it's over and happy we had such a good time.
