So, a month or so ago I blogged about reading The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay. I finished all three books within a week because I became obsessed. Like obsessed, as in I may or may not have spoken to my husband for an entire week. Just kidding, well kinda of. Anyway, the movie came out Friday and I couldn't wait to go see it. Since we had company, Trey and I could not go until Saturday. Y'all, it did not disappoint. I always think the book is better than the movie, but I really enjoyed this movie. It stayed some what closely to the book, and I couldn't have loved it more. Seriously, if you have not read the books, go to the library or bookstore now and get them. They are so good and not just for little kids.
P.S. One of my best friends commented about going to Disney so much and it must be my new lifestyle in Florida. Ha Ha. But for real, I am going again tomorrow with my father-in-law, so be on the lookout for another post. I promise I do work.

Knoxville comes to Orlando
We love having visitors so much. So, when two of our favorite couples decided to come visit, we were pumped! We are fortunate to have really fun friends. Two of Trey's best friends are awesome and lucky for me, they have super sweet and great girls in their lives. The Nutters and soon to be Lyles came from Knoxville to visit Orlando.
On Tuesday, the boys went fishing, so the girls went fishing for clothes. Y'all, I love to shop, like for real. While shopping, we found my new favorite store, Nordstrom Rack. It is the best. I found 3 dresses for $15 each, they were regularly $50-$70 dresses. I was in heaven.
On Wednesday, we bummed around Winter Park and ate a Four Rivers. Yummy and super fun. We took it easy on Wednesday because we went to Disney on Thursday. We had so much fun and loved every minute of it. Even big kids can have fun at Magic Kingdom.
Friday was a lazy day and shopping day. Although we didn't do too much, we loved hanging out with each other. I just wish they would all move to Orlando so we could hang out more. Can't wait to see them again soon!!!

Fireworks at Disney are the best!

Wishing TN was in FL and a new job
Well, I was doing pretty awesome at blogging, then March showed up. It has been an eventful month with WORKING (yes, I now have a job), family visit, and soaking up the gorgeous weather that Central Florida has to offer.
First, I guess I should update the job information. Since moving to Florida in late August, we decided that I should just sub since school had already started and I had a not good job last year that made me miserable. Anyway, I started subbing back in December and I love it. I get to choose my days and schools.Yet, I felt that I needed to do something a little more. I am now tutoring with a company. I love it. I work two days a week for 3 hours each. I know this doesn't sound like a lot, but it gives me a little freedom and still keeps me busy enough.
Next, March has been super busy because we are having lots of fun visits from people we love. First up, my sweet family came to visit our humble abode. My mom, sister, niece, and nephew drove from sweet TN to Orlando. It was such a good visit. I needed it. You see, I love living here. Truly, I do. But sometimes, you just need your family, especially me because I talk to my family 234324 times a week. I can not describe to you how much I love these people, plus my dad and brother-in-law who couldn't make the trip. We spent the week soaking up each other, having fun at Disney (my sister's favorite place in the world), and freezing our booties at the beach. All in all, the week was wonderful and I could not have had more fun. I can't wait for them to come back. Disclaimer: I would have blogged about this sooner, but my mom just uploaded the photos on Facebook. I stink at taking pictures. I am going to get better. I promise.
Fun, yet chilly day at Cocoa Beach
Super busy, fun day at Magic Kingdom
Love and miss this woman so much.
