Summer reading

During the summer I have been reading like a fool, it started off as books but now I'm all up in some blogs. I follow some publicly a la the new-to-me Google Reader (thanks Lindsay C) but I follow some privately w/ my handy dandy favorites menu. Why? I find it kind of (well really not kind of at all) stalker-esque to follow people I went to college or even high school with and I'm not really friends with anymore. And when I say not really friends with I mean haven't uttered a single word to in 5+ years. You may ask why do you care? Why read something from someone you don't even know anymore? I have no idea really, why am I friends w/ folks on facebook that I don't speak to or sometimes even know? Oh that's right, because we are all nosy. (if you deny it you're a liar) Most of the time I stalker-follow people who are so out of my level of reality. People with kids, deciding what to have for dinner, redecorating the nursery that includes a reading room, what their kids are wearing to Sunday services, etc. etc. This is so bizarre to me that I just love reading their posts. I feel like I know their children because they post hundreds of pictures of their kids all from first parties, days at the pool, play date with neighbor kid "Jimmy" etc. This may and likely does sound pretty hardcore stalker/creepy but they are so far removed from my everyday norm that I might as well be reading People or US Weekly because like celebrities I have no idea what it's like to blow millions on lypo or what it is like to blow one's paycheck at Toys R Us. I asked another one of my friends about this and she said she totally did it too (unnamed sources are so annoying) so if you've got a blog...someone random is probably reading it, and you are the random reading this post, thank you and welcome. From the light hearted stalker to the jailhouse inmate, everyone is welcome here and I'm sure my parents are getting sick of being the "faithful few". Well I'm off, I hope everyone has a wonderful day...only 4 day work week, whoop!

Happy 4th of July...happy Monday off!

Greetings all,

Happy Independence day everyone! I realize that the fireworks, cookouts, excess calories and celebrating was yesterday but Independence day is even better this year because everyone is off today too! The 4th is one of the best holidays because you have every great reason to get together, enjoy each other's company but without the stress of presents, too many decorations and tacky sweaters. The 4th of July is a nostalgic holiday for everyone with any sort of a childhood. My favorite 4ths were in our dead end (the word culdesac did not become popular until Michigan folks invaded middle TN a la Saturn) were so much fun. Every family would get out in front of their house with their bag of loot and I remember running back and forth looking at the vast array of stink bombs, sparklers, bottle rockets, Roman candles, etc and everything else eager fathers would buy in attempts to out do the other neighbors. My parents began celebrating with the Myatts when I was approximately ten and have continued pretty much ever since except for the original baseball trip or vacation. Yesterday was our first married 4th of July. This weekend is special for us b/c P proposed last year on the 2nd and the whole weekend felt so exciting with the all the fireworks etc obviously all done for our engagement :) This year like any other "first" we were SOOOOO busy. We started the day with a treck out to Murfreesboro to visit P's brother, sister-in-law and nephew. They started celebrating every state and this year was Hawaii. As we entered we were given leis, some sort of fruity blue drink, and we all head strait for the pool. We were lucky to have perfect weather and everyone swam for hours until the Hawaiian themed lunch of coconut shrimp, Hawaiian slaw, rice, bread, and every other carb one could think of. If Adkins weren't already dead of a heart attack, he would have died of shock from the massive around of carbs consumed...and it was all delicious! I made these cupcakes (pictured right) and although they did not coordinate with the Hawaiian theme, they were festive anyway. After lunch we traveled down 840 to Brentwood to celebrate at Jennas Dad's house, Leon. This cook out is a huge Ewing tradition and is so successful largely due to the amazing amount of meat that Leon smokes, so good, (PETA not invited). The Ewing celebration included a cornhole tournament complete with a bracket on a cardboard box. P and I played "the trifecta" and were out first largely due to my terrible cornhole abilities. Next Jenna and Taylor tried their abilities against the trifecta but this was no good. Finally, Kate and Travis put their cornhole game face on and totally dominated. They won the tournament and the pride of the party. After cornhole we all returned to our inner ten year old and began spelling out words with sparklers. (pictures thanks to Travis and Kate R) I have to admit this was sooooo much fun! Lastly we went to Nolensville at watched fireworks and then went back to the Myatt's house for dessert and even more fun. Ben, Hunter and Sally joined and Hunter found some fireworks stashed away in the abyss of his room and began setting them of in the driveway. Lastly we enjoyed some wonderful southern living/ Ina Garden worthy pies made by Mrs. Alicia and my Momma! Around 11pm, the tired newlyweds went back to Franklin and quickly fell asleep! We are learning that every holiday is so much longer but that much more fun :) I hope everyone else had as wonderful day as we did!
Happy extended Independence day! For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie-Corinne.

Some ratings

As a newly married couple P and I are attempting to do things together that we both enjoy. Who would have any idea that a girl who loves to sing and dance and watch reality tv has a difficult time finding similar hobbies with a guy who loves to hunt, fish, and be all up in nature. Oddly I don't love going to the movies. Maybe it's the 30 minutes of previews, how ridiculously expensive it is, sitting still for too long, or how playing on my iphone is frowned upon. Whatever the reason, I rarely look forward to going to the movies. P on the other hand loves going to the movies. He could go once a week at least. Since we've moved back we have only seen two movies and P decided we just had to go so we went and saw Grownups yesterday. We got there at the last matinee times to enjoy the cheaper rate and shamefully snuck in some "sauce" to mix in with the expensive diet coke. (Yes, judge me if you must but the only other time I've done this was in college was when we snuck in wine in our water bottles. Also remember that I'm on summer break and don't usually get to do cool stuff like that... but if you still disapprove just deal) So anyway, yeah we are there watching all 800 of the previews and I'm sitting there already wanting to leave. No, we are doing stuff together...blah blah blah Grownups starts and I'm really ready for some great laughs. Well, I kept waiting. I thought Grownups was going to be a cute movie, but we were greatly disappointed. The movie had promise, an awesome cast, lots of weirdos, etc but no go. It was cheesy, boring, and not worth the $30.00 spent. Rating: C (like the kind of C you give out for a kid that you really want to pass)

In other news... I came, I divided, I conquered... I finally finished my wedding thank you letters (insert Hallelujah chorus here). I tried to do them in stages so I don't get arthritis in my 20s (and I'm pretty sure my insurance wouldn't cover that) which would greatly impact my texting and wine drinking hand. No matter what you do your hand ends up feeling like it will fall off at any moment. Not trying to really hate on the thank you cards. I love the thank you card, I love the tradition, I like getting them, and I even like writing them. I was so afraid of leaving someone out but I'm proud to say that we made lists, cross-checked those lists multiple times and then made a final list of the thank you cards we sent. Oh yeah, OCD at it's finest. I wish I could say this was a green practice but no, no not at all. Everything about the practice is totally wasteful but I have to admit I totally judge those who do not send thank you cards. I do, it's not right, but blame it on my southern roots, but I rank not sending thank you cards up there with forgoing gray roots, stealing from children, and voting for Sarah Palin. Tragic.

This weekend will be very exciting celebrating the 4th. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie-Corinne.

Happy Birthday Shari!!!!

So being a teacher I hear almost daily, "you'll change the life of so many students" or some variation of that statement. Honestly, most the time I don't believe it and I just try to do the best I can without beginning a drug habit. I heard this again recently and started thinking of who really started my love for performing, music, and all things drama. The love for music and singing was just in my blood because I think I began singing before I began talking and walking. (Started walking at eight months, always been an over achiever) By the time I could take direction uncle Ray had Lindsay and I in coordinating outfits and pre-glee dance routines. Any family gathering (early "performance" pictured left featuring Lindsay and Carly) was an excuse for a song, dance routine, etc and the Christmas pageant? I'm not trying to sound crazy (ha) but ask anyone and I'm sure it was the highlight of the Christmas season. Maybe because we were locked away in the office and the adults could have a few minutes of adult time but whatever. We rocked the Christmas pageant (pictured left) with costumes, solos, props (usually Mamaw's place mats) and some sort of a nativity scene which often included stuffed animals or some other not so PC version that would have most of the Baptists running for the hills. My parents were of course huge allowing me to take violin lessons, taking me to Bible School, Sunday School or any other form of church where I really just enjoyed singing the songs, and overall just tolerating my belting to any song that came on the radio. But the teacher? Oh, it was for sure Mrs.Whitaker from Nolensville Elementary. First of all her entire essence screamed PERFORMANCE. She often wore big hair pieces, tons of jewelry, painted on makeup and bright, BRIGHT clothes. I thought she was always full of glamour and amazed that her hair could change so drastically. (was unaware about the magic of wigs apparently) She drove a jet black Jaguar and we used to debate whether or not she was Cruella Deville. Mrs. Whitaker required us to produce show after show after show and they were always filled with costumes, never ending medleys of show tunes, patriotic salutes and holiday singalongs. Although now I look back and hysterically laugh at the Christmas tree and Statute of Liberty costumes I gladly wore, I thought our "masterpieces" were the cream of the crop and would be totally consumed with solo opportunities, make-up, dances and of course the audience. As silly as it sounds (and it was) I have to thank Mrs. Whitaker because I continued with music and now it is my career. The very best moments of my life have all been influenced by music so influenced by Mrs. Whitaker. Maybe that's why I'm so inclined to love the big hair, jewelry and singing... who knows? So thanks Mrs. Whitaker, wherever you are. I stalked high and low and was kind of disappointed in myself to able to find pictures or anything of the legend.

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY!

In other and way more important info....It's Shair's 50th Birthday!!! Whoohooo! I have been gchatting w/ Shari and it sounds like she has had the PERFECT day! The birthday girl awoke to Sam and the cats w/ homemade signs around their perfect feline necks. Then as she got up she was pleasantly surprised by Sam's decorative signs of her favorite things all over her door and chocolate donuts provided by Tom! Yum! Carly then took her to lunch and for a pedicure and tonight she is enjoying homemade lasagna and strawberry cake. What an amazing day, oh almost forgot. Her entire yard was also decorated by two of her friends in the middle of the night! Tons and tons of black balloons covered her entire yard...only problem is now Shari can no longer claim she is 29, but I believe she will not care because of the perfect day she is enjoying! I wish we could be celebrating it together but we MUST get together soon and have a birthday celebration II.

Well I hope everyone takes time to wish Shari a happy Birthday and enjoys the rest of their day! For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie Corinne.

Happy Birthday Taylor!

It's Monday morning so that means it's time for...*Weekend Update* with Natalie-Corinne. I felt like we were back in college because we just kept going and going being social little butterflies. Friday night we celebrated Taylor's birthday (Taylor pictured right w/ his amazing wife Jenna) with the Abingtons of Franklin. A festive crowd arrived around 6:30 to the Abington's abode and were greeted with wonderful appetizers, lively conversation, and pouring down rain. The plan was to bbq and we were first concerned that the grilling would be most difficult but the birthday gods smiled and quit raining and we were able to enjoy the party! Saturday we went to the airport to pick up Sharon and Ashley (new family!) from the airport. I thought I was going to have to sedate Philip because the airport is in total overhaul and I think Philip believes the inconvenience of construction was made to personally annoy just him. To make matters worse, the airline lost their luggage. Whoa! Philip looked as though someone stole his soul and was ready to attack. Luckily the airline found where it was and was able to have it sent to their house, whooo. Good thing because I believe Philip was ready to mount the heads of the airline like he so "lovingly" does to those beautiful deer. (Yes, I'm still in denial of all of that and cannot believe I have married someone who likes to kill Bambi and his sweet mother) After the trauma at the airport we mingled with the family and then traveled out to the boondocks (20 minutes) to Noble Spring Dairy (visit them here http://www.noble-springs.com/) to visit with Dustin and Justyne (pictured right/ w/ the goats), Patrick and Amanda, and Wes and Sydney. Dustin and Justyne produce goat cheese and lots of other farmy things like hay, blackberries, etc but they are wildly popular for their wonderful goat cheese. I'm always amazed when I go to a farm. For a brief moment I totally lose all sense of sanity and wildly believe I could not only live but thrive on a farm. Yes, I could be Natalie the farmer. How I would love being able to walk outside and pick vegetables, berries, flowers, and fruit. Oh, I would never have to rummage the grocery for organics on the cheap b/c hello you live on a farm and everything around you could be organic. Oh, I totally believe this fantasy until I realize what kind of work goes into being a farmer and then the fantasy ends and I am brought back to hard core reality. Milking a goat? Are you serious? I know more about solving the conflict in the Middle East. Oh and let's not forget the facts that I'm allergic to pretty much everything that is from nature, most animals other than cats flip me out, and I hate being dirty or hot. So no, not for me, but Justyne and Dustin work their tails off and do a great job with all of it! We had a great job sitting on the porch, talking, and relaxing. After farm time we went "back into town" (ha, Mom) and joined Libby and Christian for dinner at Garcia's Mexican restaurant. Once again we all had way too much fun and might have or have not seen Jaimee Lynn Spears (pictured left). This youngin is supposedly residing in Nashville because of a boyfriend or something. Sydney spotted her but it is not confirmed that this was the actual Jaime Lynn. All I know is that she needs to stop wearing those Ole Miss shirts because she never attended my prestigious University and she is from Louisiana which means she smells like corn dogs. Speaking of Ole Miss...after dinner I was SO excited to meet up w/ the one and only Mrs. Jenny Byrd (pictured right w/ wonderful husband Jason) of Oxford. Jenny was in town to attend a conference for our sorority and as I approached the Marriott doors the estrogen was thick enough to knock me out. I walked in and in the bar/lobby alone there were over 300 ladies and the wine and gossip was flowing! We had so much fun catching up and I only hated that I couldn't spend more time with her. Also, Jenny and Jason are celebrating their two year wedding anniversary today! Congratulations Jenny and Jason! It really feels like yesterday! Finally on Sunday we were up bright and early to go to Center Hill lake for fun in the sun/Taylor's Birthday part II. I was the most impressed with the water aerobatics that soon started in the lake. Jenna, Taylor, and Craig (pictured left) all water skied and popped up so easily and looked like total pros in the water. They would ski right over those wakes and actually pull the boat with their muscles. I on the other hand, never got up and am responsible for the water shortage on Center Hill Lake because of the crazy amount of water I swallowed. Not really one of my finer moments but none the less we had the best day with amazing weather, food, friends, ice cream cake and birthday!

Well that is all for now, I hope everyone is having the best start to their week. For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie-Corinne.

Update

Hello all,

*BREAKING NEWS* I'm coming to you live from our living room where for one of the first times in our relationship, P is watching a girlie movie that I picked. We are currently watching Jewels and Julia and it makes me want to take cooking classes and go to Europe. Like yesterday. Perhaps I will start practicing "The Secret"(pictured right). Although I've never read this, I did see ten minutes of the Oprah episode about it and from what I have observed you're supposed to envision your goals and dreams so I think this will be very easy to get lost in day dreams about walking up those beautiful streets of Paris eating baguettes. Done and done.

In other news, my great friend Rebecca Bertrand (pictured everywhere you see cute dimples) also started a blog. The title, Bert alert is a tribute to the 80s radio show the Bertrand sisters (Aimee and Rebecca) co-hosted back in the glory days of Ole Miss. Now Rebecca started her blog and Aimee will be a contributing partner. Check her out. http://www.thebertalert.blogspot.com/

I hope everyone has an amazing Friday and a wonderful start to your weekend. For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie-Corinne.

get back in/out/stay away from the closet?

Hello all,

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and a great start to the work week. I have to admit since I'm on summer break the "case of the Mondays" doesn't really stress me out like once did but I can say my peaceful summer break was hugely disturbed by tonight's cray cray mess of Andy Cohen Live starring botox frenzied Danielle. (Seriously, her face? I mean I am not above getting some work done but it was pulled so tight. I mean Tinker Bell's face is more natural...) Okay, let's start off w/ a strong disclaimer, even though I find it hardly necessary. Although I know all 10 of you who read this know I'm a big fan of the gays, just in case someone reads this by mistake that doesn't know me, know I have zero in fact negative amounts of problems with the gays. I'm not Kathy Griffin but I'm up there, okay? What I do have a problem with...folks who fake gay... worse than a fake designer bags bought out of a shady van in Chinatown (okay, so I do own a lot of those) toupees, fake people, fake ice cream, faking gay is like the worst kind of fake there is. I think delusional Danielle is not really thinking her "faking" too seriously and is all about trying to sell her "raw" duet (her words) with Lori Michaels (pictured right). Tonight on Andy Cohen live Danielle and Lori premiered their duet and Danielle repeatedly eye stalked Lori trying to create some chemistry during their serenade. After the duet and during the interview Danielle sat in Lori's lap and dangled her legs all over Lori and refused to answer any questions from Andy, basically to stir up drama and rumors thus promoting her new song. What Danielle is not thinking too clearly about (among other things) is the wrath that follows the fake gay. I feel like we've been down this road before and nothing good comes from the fake gay. It's pretty much the modern day Old Testament curse and instead of frogs and boils you'll end up with failing careers and adult acne. Don't believe me...After the "amazing" single Tardy for the Party, Kim V started dating a lady and she continues to be a laughing stock. Lindsay Lohan dated a lady dj and now she's wearing a anklet required by law. I don't make the rules but there they are. Another interesting theory is from sorority friend Mary F. She claims that Danielle can't be faking the gay when in fact she is a drag queen. Her theory? No real woman (excluding Cher of course) wears that much make up and sequins. Here at Natalie's News, we think this is also a good point. I guess we'll have to stay tuned for the truth.

In other and non reality show related news, summer is here and it is hotter than all get out. In the thirty seconds it takes to get to your car my freckle count increases by 1,000 and I am already burned. Now we all know southern ladies don't REALLY sweat but in these situations what can a lady do? As good as it feels to carry around a sweat rag, I do not advice this unattractive option. I've resulted to wearing dresses everyday because jeans are too hot and deciding that going green must be optional in the summer because the a/c is running overtime. The other side is to just embrace the sweat and pretend your backyard (in my case veranda...aka small apartment balcony) is my own personal sauna and I'm just super into detoxing the "healthy"way. Sounds cool, right? Whatever the case, the best and tastiest option would obviously be to have a frozen drink by the pool but watch out for those liquid calories! Annoying.

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful week. For Natalie's News, this has been Natalie-Corinne.

Happy Father's Day!!

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful fathers out there! I am lucky enough to have such a wonderful, caring, and loving Dad (pictured left at our wedding and right when I was born)! Tonight the family went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. Once again I am so glad to to be back in Tennessee so we are able to do all these things together again! We met up for dinner and then came back to our apartment for dessert! My Dad is one of those Dad's who rarely accepts compliments or attention and would give you his last shirt, shoe, or cent before you did with out. If he reads this I know he will be embarrassed with all the lovey dovey stuff but for real ask anyone you know and they would be quick to rate my Dad as one of the nicest most genuine people ever on the earth! I've learned so much from him by his actions and am proud he is my Dad! He deserves way more than a day but I hope today and every other Father out there had a relaxing and much deserved happy Father's Day!

Have a wonderful week :) For Natalie's News this has been Natalie-Corinne.

Sleepy Saturday

Hello all! I hope everyone has had a wonderful start to their weekend. As promised I will tackle some old but favorite subjects and I see none better to start with than...

*Focus on the Family*

One amazing benefit about living in Tennessee again is that I see my family so much more and it is perfect! For example....yesterday PHILIP (not me) received a text from my brother asking to go...shooting? Okay, hold the phone. What has happened to my family? I move back to TN and their necks have become red and there is a don't tread on my flag waving in the front yard. I swear if they start waving the stars and bars I will steal it in the middle of the night and make it look like an accident. Anyway, Ben called Philip and I accompanied them to the shooting place? I don't remember what it is called but it was pretty close to hell. First of all I was hotter than Lindsay up in India. When we arrive I obviously ask where the bathroom is and Philip looks at me like I'm insane and he says there is no bathroom at the gun club. Oh, sorry. I remember living in 2010 and pride myself in only attending establishments that have running water. So we're out there sweating (past the point of glistening, totally sweat mode) and watching Philip and Ben (Ben looking all too much like Dick Cheney pictured left) shooting at targets. I have to say I was a little disappointed for a couple of reasons. The targets were homemade circles with dots in the center (looked a little like boobs to me) and I imaged pictures of criminals etc. but no such luck. If I ever make a gun range it will be targets of people I don't like or people I think it would be funny to see. Wouldn't it be amazing if you were at the gun club and then a huge picture of Omarosa or Spencer Pratt (pictured left and not related fyi) rushed by? Although I've never held a gun I would probably at least get a water gun to shoot at them.

SHOUT OUT! In other news, last night I attended my first Stella and Dot jewelry party hosted by my friend Jessica Bishop, of blogger fame, Budget Savvy Bride. (http://www.thebudgetsavvybride.com/) She has beautiful pieces and would probably love to talk to you about her new business adventures!

Tonight we are going to June wedding event of Devin and Austin! I'm sure it will be the wedding of the month but I will promise to blog about it soon.
Stay tuned for....

*Weekend update

*Father's Day Blog
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! For Natalie's News this has been, Natalie-Corinne.

Five Hundred Twenty five thousand Six Hundred Minutes....

The cast of Rent said it best...how do you measure a year? OMG. A year... really, a year? I know. Honestly I stopped blogging because I was job searching but I then did not pick it back up because well, no good reason. Life got crazy and then all the sudden I am MARRIED, I live in Tennessee and yes a year has passed. What happened?!?! Well I'll try to recap with one of the most important things first...(shout out to Rbert for starting this all up...when her's and Whit's are up I'll pass it along b/c it will be so hot right now)

What will be first? Marriage? The 2 moves? New job? No. SUMMER OF BRAVO. Omg, Bravo has exploded! I feel like that network is taking over my life, my dvr and my vernacular. If you're a close friend then we all speak Bravo and Ramona eyes and satchels of gold are obvis. Right now we're (and Philip is included in the we only b/c he is bound to me by the state) are enjoying the craziness of the 3-part NYC Reunion, New Jersey, Kathy Griffin, and Bethenny Getting Married. With my commitment to Bravo one could reasonably wonder how I able to still communicate w/ family and friends but I somehow make it work. I'm pretty much a single mother raising 3 kids w/ no help but my kids are the tv shows, ugh God help us all. Kelly and Danielle are certifiable in the padded cell kind of way. I like the Manzos and Bethenny Frankel the most. I feel like the women are all repeating the same mistakes...obviously they need a guide book...who else should write it other than the most devoted Bravo watcher ever?~?~ ME

Step 1. DON'T SING.....I repeat DON'T SING. How could they all not have learned after the distaster (although she did sell quite a few ring tones but I think it was more of a joke than anything else) of Kim V (pictured left) of RHWof Atlanta...Don't be tardy for the party. Someone as "classy" as the countess LuAnn (pictured right) should have known her manly vocals (and I use that term soooo loosely) would never top the charts but she did it anyway. Although she was right and Money can't buy you class, it also can't buy you a good singing voice. (ouch) And NOW Queen Crazy Danielle (pictured left) is debuting her duet (no, not that tape, a real musical duet...) and the good Lord only knows what will come out of that mess. So really, you all became famous because you spend other people's money well (exception Bethenny, Ramona, Vicky (OC) ) stick to what you know and if you must branch out hire a ghost writer like the rest of the world and do some more yoga. Singing is talent and a skill, not a new career you can pick up like a Santa's helper job at Macy's while you're home for the holidays. ugh.

Step 2: Remember what kind of celebrity you are. Yes, people know you now and you are provided w/ all kind of new gigs, but remember you are on the lower end of the celebrity scale (just deal, its true) and don't go getting too big for your britches! I think that's some of the reason for all of the Jill (NYC) backlash this year. There are no emmys for Housewives drama and enjoy the ride while you got it. The Diva attitude is totally accepted from Juilia Roberts, Oprah, and Donald Trump, etc... but a reality show on Bravo? Nope.

Step 3: Everyone always gets skinny after the first season b/c the camera adds 10lbs. If you get this gig go ahead and give up carbs, sugar, alcohol and your life and get into that size 2 dress. Nothing tastes as good as skinny.

I could go on and on but then it might prevent good tv so I'll stop. Basically it's a lot easier to judge from behind my laptop but this is my "service" (ie.totally free and not read) to the public and they are making beaucoup bucks for their "trials" so go get 'em ladies!

In other news, we had an INSANE year full of good, bad, happy, sad moments that I won't even attempt to go over but yes, we did get married and we were soooo lucky to have so many amazing friends and family come in for our blessed party I mean wedding. It was everything we wanted and it made me sad all my friends and family live so far apart b/c having all my worlds colliding together for one weekend was pure bliss :)

Stay tuned for:

*How we've become real adults (at least kind of and mainly I just try to fool people)

*Updates on the family

*Weekend update and much, much more.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday and somehow makes an early start to their weekend! For Natalie's News this has been long lost, Natalie-Corinne.
