Flashback Friday

I thought I'd throw this gem your way...a little Flashback Friday action of me and my brother in...I'm guessing around...1991.

I made this post Flashback Friday simply because 1. Catchy titles are always fun 2.Everyone likes to rhyme and 3. Well I'm one day late for Throwback Thursday! 

Please note my brother's devious looking grin and my amazing sun glasses. Also, please note I was rocking this seasons blunt bang 12 years ago. Talk about ahead of the times! 

Here's to a fantastic Friday! xoxo bd

*Again with the rhyming, you're welcome*

Labor Day 2012

It’s back to the work week after a much needed long weekend. I was one of the lucky people to be given Monday off and I took full advantage of sleeping in…every day! Saturday evening we went to my parent’s house to watch the big LSU game and Sunday evening we spent with Adam’s parents for dinner and watched The Help. I love, love, love that book and movie!

I hope you enjoyed your holiday and wanted to share some photos of our Labor Day cook out with family and friends.

Can you see Amber? Or as Papa calls her, Old One and a half, she is due in 3 weeks! We are all so excited!

Happy Birthday to Papa, he celebrated a very young 86th birthday. 

You might be curious as to what they are carrying through the living room. An organ of course!

Mr. Shaw (one of yesterday's guest) has an amp company and recently refurbished an organ for my dad's studio. 

I'm beginning to think everyone's dad doesn't have a studio or friends who bring them organs. Just thinking....

So that's it. There were a few snippets of our Labor Day gathering yesterday afternoon.

Again, I hope that you enjoyed your long weekend. 

I'll talk to you soon!

Throwback Thursday: 3 Years Old

Its throwback Thursday and I thought I might show you a few pictures my mom found in the attic.

To be honest, I don’t remember having ever seen these pictures which makes them all the more special. As you can see, celebrating my 3^rd birthday with family in North Carolina in my velvet green dress and white tights, I was very 1991!

 Me and me Brother Josh getting ready to chow down apparently…and poor guy, he has a black eye! We were wild ones when we were younger; always outside, running, playing, kicking…each other, hanging off of monkey bars, we could have been considered mini acrobats.

Here I am with my mom rocking the Peter Pan collar! I bet she had no idea that 21 years later it would be considered quite hip! Minus the rose stitching, of course and added blue ruffle.

Now it’s me and my Gramma Harvill….or Betty {Semi namesake}

She was the woman responsible for teaching me how to apply peach lipstick! A lady in love with cosmetics and jewelry, I can only imagine why I turned out the way I did.

Sadly enough today marks the 15^th anniversary of her death. It came as quite a shock to all of us but I’ve had a couple of confirmations growing up that she is doing just fine.

April 19^th has always been a memorable day in the lives of my family members aside from the passing of my grandmother.

I do enjoy reminiscing about when I was younger...everything was much simpler and sweeter. But for now, that is it for Throwback Thursday. I hope you have a wonderful day and I will talk to you soon!

Long time no see, right? I have been a little busy….please excuse my absence.

The week leading up to both graduations and the move were hectic and stressful. I was a mess and did not hesitate to show it. (I have since apologized to Adam for my random frantic outbursts.) 

 Congratulations to my brother, Josh, who graduated from MTSU with a degree in Music Business! I'm so proud of you Esh, I love you! He has worked very hard to get where he is today, I know he has a very big career ahead oh him. Josh Harvill will be a huge success…you read it here first!

 {Here is my dad, hubby and brother}

Followed by the ceremony was a fun grad party that his wife Amber threw for him. Decorations were so cute not to mention yummy food!

Sadly we couldn’t stay long because we had to head back to Memphis for Adam’s graduation the following day. In addition, a girl was going to buy our Washer/Dryer but ended up flaking out on us. Not cool Delia…or Celia…whatever your name was….not cool.

Sunday everyone arrived at our house to then chow down on good ole Memphis Bar-b-q at Central. It was Adam’s grandparents and Josh & Amber’s first time to eat there!

The graduation ceremony was quite exciting, I could not stop smiling at the amazing man I’m married to about to receive his J.D. What what! He’s just spectacular…maybe I’m a little biased!

{Everyone after the graduation}

Monday we spent moving all of our stuff. Every piece of our little life fit into just a couple of cars and a u-haul trailer.  It was a lot of work that helped us to decide we are getting movers from now on.

Seeing as I’ve spent too much time on the computer I’m going to spend the rest of the night on the couch watching movies.

I’ll talk to you soon, have a wonderful evening!
