A Change in the Season....

NEW ADVENTURES FOR LESLIE!! That's right, I'm trying something new! I hesitate writing this because if I'm honest I feel a little silly, but what the heck! Here it is.......I'm now a Mary Kay Consultant. That's right, I'm in the make-up business! For those of you who know me, you know that I love color and I love make-up! I must admit, I don't wear make-up everyday; infact, I can go days without putting anything on my face, but I think it's fun!! I enjoy playing with the colors and getting creative with my eye shadow! SO, if you love make-up or getting little facials, let me know!! I have a challenge to give so many facials in 30 days AND I need the practice! (Or if you simply want to order make-up, I can help you do that too!!)

Well, there is certainly more to write, more to tell....but until I clear my head a little, I'll wait. I think I'll go to the gym and do a little sorting out by myself, then share! Hope you guys have an awesome day!!

Home Sweet Home

On Friday I went home to visit my family and pay my little sister a visit on her eighth birthday! I can’t believe my little Ashlee is growing up so fast. She’s quite the character let me tell you! She snaps those fingers, rolls her head, puts her hands on her hips, and will give a command like it’s her job! I just absolutely love her! And I am flattered that she looks up to me. Ashlee wants to be like her big sissy and do the same things I did. My prayer is that she would be a woman who falls in love with Jesus!

On Tuesday I will be returning home for my dad's birthday dinner. (His birthday is Thursday.) We have a really cool tradition in my family where we eat together with my grandparents every Tuesday night. When it’s the week of your birthday you get to be the lucky one who picks the meal for that Tuesday night. (These are FAB meals made by my nana.) Some of my personal favorites are her meatballs and rice, her green beans, chicken and noodles, baked macaroni, and her butter toasted bread to name a few. Mmmm...it all sounds so good! I can’t wait to see what we’ll have this week. HOWEVER I’m even more excited to give my dad his birthday present. My mom surprised him with tickets to the Tennessee vs. Georgia game, which is in Knoxville this weekend. And for those of you who don’t know, my family is huge Tennessee fans. Our basement is practically orange and our dog is named Smokey. Anyways, both my mom and dad will be surprised to know that I will be contributing to their hotel stay. My parents are really excited about this trip and it's much needed and very much deserved on my dad’s behalf. I hope they have a wonderful time and GO VOLS!! I’ll be singing Rocky Top from Greensboro!!

*I would also like to note that I LOVE being home and driving in this weather!! There is something therapeutic about driving down a country road with the windows down and the music up! And my left hand out the window of course! :)
