The Blog is Back

Well, I've officially been terrible at blogging lately, but I'm back at it and I'm going to TRY and keep it up. A quick recap since January: Jackson and I went to Nola for Vday, 5 weddings in April and May, new baby niece Claire was born, Jackson started work at Regions, Hannah turned 3, we celebrated our 2nd anniversary, Rosie turned 2, and many more happenings that I can't remember off-hand. As for more current news, I just turned 29 and am mentally trying to process that I'm swiftly approaching my 30s. To celebrate we did labor day weekend at the new beach house in Seagrove. It is awesome! I'm looking forward to going back ASAP.


Additionally, August 29 was my last day at the Courthouse working with Judge Hughey. I'm off to a new adventure starting Monday! I am joining a small transactional firm, The Parker Law Firm (there are two, ours is the one in Office Park) to do mostly real estate work. I'm so excited about this opportunity for more reasons than I can count. Mostly though, it feels like home. My family has been in the real estate business in some capacity for longer than I've been alive. Adding a lawyer in the mix just made sense. I'm excited to be joining two awesome women, Lorrie and Ginger. They are very skilled at what they do and I'm anxious to learn all I can. It feels like I've known them forever. This is the first job I've ever started thinking, "This is something I could do for the rest of my life." It's a terrifying and amazing feeling.

Yesterday Rosie went to a Birthday party for her puppy cousin Winston at Cahaba Brewing Co. It was our first time to Cahaba and we all loved it. Most of the time I'm not a Craft Beer kind of person (too hoppy) but their American Blonde Ale and Oktoberfest were both delicious.



I'll try and update soon about my first week of work, Cameron's baby shower, and Claire's baptism!
