Who Should Jillian Pick?

We’re down to the final 4 on The Bachelorette!  Monday night was a huge surprise with the return of Ed; however, no family meeting could prove to be a deal breaker.  Who do you think Jillian should pick?

Summer: 9 to 5 Style

As our running partner (and teacher friend) parted ways with us this morning, and as we watched her run of into the wild blue yonder that is her summer vacation, it was difficult to not feel a pang of jealousy.  However, envy does no one any good.  Plus, it ages you.  So we’ve decided to come up with a list of ways to do summer: 9 to 5 style.

1.  Wear opened, toed, highly inappropriate sandals to work.  Es fiiine.
2.  Go blonde.
3.  Enjoy a little sunset happy hour with friends and coworkers.  Margaritas on the deck!  (easy recipe here).
4.  Eat your lunch outside – you aren’t that busy!
5.  Wear bright colors and lots of dresses.
6.  Take a vaca – even if you are super busy – summer just isn’t summer without sinking your toes into the sand.

Charming Bracelet

Charming?  Or is charm deceptive?  For us, the charm bracelet has always stirred memories of Hello Kitty purchases, wayside hobbies (re: archery charm – circa summer ‘94), and the overload of silver jewelry that still haunts us from our high school years.  We thought the charm bracelet has long since been replaced.  Until…spotted!  Buckhead Betty wearing gold charm bracelet with lunching outfit while eating at Zoe’s in Peachtree Battle (shown here w/o charms), and we felt a resurging love!!  Has charm once again deceived us?  Or are charm bracelets super charming?!?

Beauty

“Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.  Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.” – 1 Peter 3: 3-5
