We Just Don't Stop...


I have come to the conclusion that Bryan and I simply
Do. Not. Stop.
We are CONSTANTLY on the go.
And quite frankly, that is the way we like it. 
We have a gorgeous home but only choose to stay in..
..ohh?? Maybe 2 nights a week?

Friday I had a totally cray day at work then
we hit the road for Ocala at almost 5 o'clock on the dot.
Friday night we had the traditional
"night before the tournament"
dinner at Mark's Steakhouse with Chris & Tiff.
Best steak ever.
Thennnn for a night out in Ocala!
Oh, how I love going back home :)
It is near impossible to be walking around the square 
downtown without seeing ten people you went to 
High School with- including but not limited to:
ex-boyfriends, high school football coaches, friends
whom you may or may not have had a falling out with.
Then there's the standard:
"WHEN are y'all getting married???"
Shut. Up.
Ohhh, always an exciting time :/
Then this happened:
We may have had several glasses of champagne at dinner.
I'm not sure. 

6AM on Saturday came REAL quick.
Well, clearly after that last little snippet of pictures...
We were on our way to Golden Ocala by 7 to
kick off the 4th Annual Rob McCoy Foundation Golf Tournament.
To reiterate, Rob was Bryan's best friend who was killed
by a drunk driver back in 2008 at the Florida/Georgia game.
We miss Rob everyday and my heart still goes out to his family.
All proceeds from the golf tournament go to scholarships
and the Boys & Girls club of Ocala. 
It's a huge turn out every year and it's so encouraging 
that all of the boys come together  this time of year to make it successful.
For Rob. 
It couldn't have been a prettier day for a golf tournament:
The boys who make it possible :)
How B.A. are the new Under Armour golf polos??

Saturday also ended up being a
fabulous day in college football.
A win for the Gators
(South Carolina has also been overrated since Day One)
AND another win for UCF! :):)

Then Sunday morning we headed to Tampa
to watch my Saints take on the Bucs for a 1 o'clock game!
The entire group we went with was super irritated
that Shannon and I were sporting Saints gear ;)
Bryan and I are clearly a couple divided :/
Are view wasn't too shabby either!
We just grabbed cheap tickets at sat at the pirate ship
bar in the end zone. 
It was the Bucs' throw back game, hence
all of the orange and the old school pirate mascot.
The Saints won after the Bucs caught a TD pass
then STEPPED OUT OF THE END ZONE.
For those uneducated football fans,
in layman's terms,
that pass would be considered NO GOOD. :)

So that about wraps up my weekend!
Oh oh ooohhhhh. And I finally decorated my front yard!

I can't *WAIT* to have sweet little trick or treaters this year!!
Last year was a little depressing, I decorated per usual,
only to have 3 rude little boys pound on my door  in wife
beaters, holding out their pillow cases.
No candy for you. You look like this everyday.

HAVE A FAB MONDAY!
Re-Cap on the Breast Cancer fundraiser party coming soon!!

Happy *almost* Weekend, Kittens!

We are jjjuusssttt about there, friends :)
Tonight Bry & I are heading back to Ocala
 for tomorrow's 4th Annual Rob McCoy Foundation Golf
Tournament at Golden Ocala.
I can't believe it's been almost been 4 years.

We miss you, Rob :)


RIP RRM

Golf Themed Cake

Well, I'm officially 24! 
It's going to take me forever to stop replying "23" 
when asked my age. Ugh.
Although I just might stick with that response for a while. ;)

So for my Birthday this past Saturday,
I wanted to do something different.
No party at the house.
No limo downtown.
No giant group of people out for dinner. 
I saw something super cute on Pinterest a while back--
Golf Themed Bachelorette Party!
I loved the theme but no Bachelorette here so I decided on a 
Golf Themed Birthday at beautiful Stoneybrook in Orlando!
Pink, green, obnoxious golf outfits, and Mimosas yay!

Tiffany volunteered to tackle the cake, 
so unfortunately I can't take credit but I still wanted to share.

I gave her a snapshot of a very basic golf-themed cake and 
she kind of took the idea and ran with it.



She baked a standard 9 inch cake and 
allowed it to cool. Once cooled, she cut a wedge
out of the left side of the cake to serve as the sand pit.
She then used a #4 tip to pipe
out the "grassy" frosting, leaving the sand pit
area and the "green" on the right untouched.
Finally, she used a different shade of green frosting
for the green and filled in the sand pit with crushed
vanilla wafers. And the pink flag just made me smile! 

Thanks girl! Love you!
