Friends
He went to Jared. :)
I’m engaged!!! Here’s how it went down: A month or so ago Ben marked a weekend on our gmail calendar as “Do not plan a thing”. Hhmm…my interest is peaked. We’re big on planning surprise trips or dates for each other, so I had a few ideas in my head. A few days prior … Continue reading
Road Trip – NC (Day 2)
Day 2 of NC was a perfect way to wrap up our family road trip! The boys and I, along with the Bateman’s, headed off to play in the Atlantic for a few hours! After a quick stop at the “Shark Store” for a boogie board, a kite, and sand toys, we arrived at the … Continue reading
Road Trip – NC (Day 1)
I am an avid list maker…which inspired to me to change it up a bit make a list of all the fabulous things we did on our first day in NC. Survived horrible traffic on 95South, but made it to the Camp Lejeune Inn. Nice and economical! Visited the “mall” on base for last minute … Continue reading

That’s right…s’mores cupcakes!
A few weeks ago, Jess and I were tasked with preparing some food for our friend Kit’s birthday. She’s getting pretty old and was probably thinking something like ovaltine, tapioca, and melba toast, but we had something a bit cooler in mind. I mean, after all, us whipper snappers like our food with a bit … Continue reading
Thanksgiving break – 2009: Sniper Style pt. 2 (Thanksgiving Day)
In true Turner style the morning got started with a big plate of food and a lot of scrambling around. After breakfast Jess and I started in on the turkey, gravy base, and more chopping of vegetables. You’d think that after like three days of preparing food, we’d have all this mess done. That wasn’t … Continue reading
Thanksgiving break – 2009: Sniper Style pt. 1
It all started with a trip to Burger King for some New Moon paraphernalia. I got Jess’ place and we got ready and headed off for some sushi, time with friends, and a gaggle of tweens and/or begrudgingly happy boyfriends and husbands. The movie was ish at best. It was better than Twilight, but then … Continue reading
Our first weekend cabin trip
So I have to say that this past weekend was exactly as it should be. Well, there are a few things I would have changed, but for the most part it was every thing that I could have imagined that a 30th birthday weekend cabin trip could’ve been.
