Nanny Diaries Recap

I really enjoyed the movie. I read the book a few months back and had been eager to go see if they were at all similar. Despite some minor differences, I felt like they did a pretty good job of keeping to the original story line.
On the way out of the movie we noticed that everyone had left the theater but the three of us. That can only mean one thing, dance party! We put down our purses and danced around the theater. So fun! My two best friends are amazing.
Also, if anyone can figure out which song is played during the ending credits I would love to know. I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Girls Movie Night


Emily, Maria and myself are going to see the Nanny Diaries at the dollar theater tonight!

Also, read Emily's blog...she killed a spider this morning. I am very impressed. I could hear her screaming all the way down Tates Creek this morning but she still did it!

Kristin's Baby Shower

My sister is about 6 months pregnant with a baby boy! Lee's middle name is Breckenridge so they are going to name the baby after him and call him Breck. To say I am excited would be a huge understatement.
I am throwing her a shower on December 9th and while scouring the internet for ideas I ran across this. Its a diaper cake! You can use diapers, towels, baby products, etc... I love it! They can cost up to $70 to buy online, which I think is crazy. So, I will be using the next few weeks to research and create my own, there is no way it can be that hard.
Does anyone else have any cute ideas? Let the planning begin!

Griff is coming back!


This weekend Griff Ray will be officially back at Crossroads! This makes my heart very happy.

For those of you who don't know who Griff is...

Griff served on the Crossroads staff for 13 years before moving to Cincinnati to become the lead pastor at Bridgetown Church of Christ. Having grown up at Crossroads, Griff is like a second dad to me. I was so sad the night he told me he was leaving. He served at Bridgetown for 4 years and is now being called back to Crossroads...I couldn't be happier!


However, with the return of Griff comes the loss of Fred Turner. Fred has accepted a teaching position in Raleigh North Carolina. This is a very bittersweet transition, we will miss him a ton!


I need a name


My blog needs a name! I don't know that I can top "Mimsy's Musing's" or "Ria's Rhetoric" but I am going to try and at least come close. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Cute Ornaments


I found these at pottery barn...how cute!

Favorite Postsecret


This PostSecret is especially meaningful to me right now. I have been house sitting for my parents all week. A few nights ago I sat in my dads closet and looked through all of the family photo albums that he has stored in there. It was so fun to look back and see all of the memories captured on film. Under all the albums he had a large file folder with nothing but old report cards, letters that I had written to him and elementary school projects. I had no idea he had saved all of those things! My dad is amazing.

Paula Deen


Maria and I are going to Louisville on Saturday night to see Paula Deen! We saw her a few months back on her book tour (we both read her entire book in under a week), but this time she is actually going to cook. I can't wait!

Biting the Bullet


Call me a follower but here is my blog! Emily and Ria both bit the bullet so count me in. Here goes nothing...
