Fun Visitors!!

Kim, Kylie, Cohen, and her mom Debbie came in town last week for a quick visit and to meet up with some of their family in Virginia. We had a great time getting to see them and I think it was their first trip to Myrtle Beach... we hope the first of MANY!

Thursday night we ate at one of our favorite places, Mr. Fish, then headed to walk on the beach... turned out to be a VERY QUICK beach trip because it was CRAZY windy! I have never seen it that windy on the beach but we got a few quick pics and headed home!




Please excuse my camera lens... it was SO HUMID I could not get my lens to not be foggy so they are not too clear! Haha







Friday we got to have some pool time before they check into their hotel...







Saturday Karoline & I got to play at the hotel with everyone then we met them at Broadway At The Beach that night so the kids could ride rides before we had to say goodbye... They had a BLAST!

TEXAS!

I had such an amazing time in Fort Worth a few weeks ago at Premier Designs National Rally- Their 25th anniversary! It felt great to be in Fort Worth... it was like "home" for a while. Premier is an AMAZING company. Yes, the jewelry is great but it's the HEART of this company that I LOVE and ARDOR!

For 4 days and almost 10,000 jewelers, jewelry and sales was rarely talked about... it was MISSIONS, SERVING OTHERS, TESTIMONIES, and SCRIPTURE that we heard over and over again! It was wonderful. Point of Grace came and did a concert and it was wonderful!

I think my favorite part of Rally was hearing the testimonies from the missionaries supported by Premier! Just to hear how God has used the blessings of Premier Designs to take the gospel around the world is just SO AWESOME! I'm proud to work for a company who "gets the BIG PICTURE" and who's #1 desire is to see people come to know Jesus in a real and intimate way!

Here are a few pictures of our group at Rally...

More FAMILY!

My brother, Leigh, Jackson, & Pressley came to visit for a few days before heading back to Georgia from their beach trip with Leigh's family. It was a short visit but very fun... we celebrated birthdays, had fashion shows (Karoline & Pressley), wrestling matches (Jackson & Anderson), a little beach/ swim time, and lots of fun! So thankful we got to spend time with both our families this summer!
