Hot Model


My husband is so HOT! Check out this photo taken while he was waiting tables! A clothing company in Atlanta, Esperanza, came to his restaurant and they asked him to pose for a picture of them. We got hooked up with some sweet shirts and Cameron was able to speak with the founders of the company about his own t-shirt printing ideas. Cameron has been learning how to screen print shirts and will be going full force when we move into our new place in June. So cute!

Home Run





What is Atlanta without a Braves baseball game? We were able to go to the game this Wednesday, the Braves were playing against the Padres. Cameron's parents got AMAZING tickets from his grandmother, which she gets for free from her investment company! I tell you what, she has got to be investing a lot of money, because these tickets were killer. Not only did we get to sit on the 25th row behind home base, we got exclusive tickets to the 755 Club. The Club is an enclosed area on the top of the stadium, lots of food, drinks and air conditioning. After hanging out there for a bit we decided to go to our seats (who wants to watch a baseball game in an air conditioned room, you might as well go home!). When we got to our seats there were a lot of menus in the cup holders around our area. Turns out you can order food from your seat and they will bring it to you! Since we had these special tickets we all could use them for $10.00 off any food, drinks, or merchandise. I bought a hot pretzel with mustard and a bottle of coke....yummy. Cameron made his way around to 15 stores looking for a special Braves shirt (my picky husband), he ended up settling for a normal shirt.

At the end of the game, which the Braves won, we walked out to the front of the stadium to the valet service where our car was waiting for us. Yes, folks, we did not have to walk out into the crowd and drive in traffic. We made a clean exit and went home.

So, if you want to have an experience like this, I suggest you get on Grandmother Ford's good side. She hooks it up!

Dingo Bones




Hi guys! It was a good weekend although I was a little under the weather. We had a lot of people out at work this week. 4 guys took at least one day off because they were sick and then a few still came in. I have decided that our office is a Petri Dish. We have 15 full time people in a 1556 sq. foot space. Whew, we grew so fast from the original 5 that started last June! So, it can be a bit of  a germy space. One person goes down the whole team ends up with the same ailment!

Before I crashed and burned, Cameron and I were able to hang out with our best buds Chad and Tina  Pritchard. We are so lucky to have friends like them, they are so easy to talk to and there is no pressure around them. I could have no makeup on, my hair stuck up in the air and morning breath and I would only be slightly embarrassed! Chad is a 7th grade teacher for a private school in Atlanta that is primarily African American students. It is so beautiful to see the love he has for his students. I really wished that I had more teachers like him growing up. He and Tina really invest into their lives.

Cameron and I will be leaving this Friday-Monday to help chaperon a trip to Panama City Beach for his students. There will be about 15 of us going and I am looking forward to meeting his kids. It will be so rewarding for us to meet them and really get to know all about their lives. I remember how awkward 7th grade was for me and I hope that we can make them feel comfortable and speak into their lives. Pray for us!

I had to post another picture of KC, she is the cutest little puppy. She is so smart! She knows how to sit, lie down, shake and give a high five! When we do these tricks with her we give her "Dingo" bones, she LOVES them! She will eat half of the bone and walk around to find a place to hide it. I joke that we will find little bones all over the apartment when we move next month!
