What's a Girl to Do

...when she wants to write, but doesn't have anything to write about?

Well, I have something I want to write about but it's going to have to wait a little longer.  So instead, I guess I'll share a cute picture of Little Lauren since it is "Throwback Thursday" after all.

Isn't she adorable?  And that outfit!  Those shoes!  I wonder if that dress still exists in the attic somewhere... 

In other news,  we've been traveling quite a bit this summer (as usual).  The end of May/June consisted of NCAA Regionals in Baton Rouge, Dinner at the Governor's Mansion and "4-H Day at the Capitol" (also in Baton Rouge), a week at 4-H Camp, a day trip to Natchez for a fun photo shoot, a week at 4-H University (huge state competition for teens, held at LSU), and a couple of days at the NE District Horse Show.  As you can see, most of that is work travel, not the fun stuff.

In July, we took one of Alex's coworkers who is originally from Michigan down to my parents' in south Louisiana for the Fourth.  (I'll try to post about that sometime.)  This weekend, we are going to New Orleans to see GARTH BROOKS!!!  Later this month, both of us have short-ish work trips to New Orleans or Baton Rouge, and then we are going to close out July with a weeklong trip to North Carolina to visit Alex's parents.  Side note:  I am SO excited to be flying this time instead of that usual 14+ hour drive!

So, as my mom would say, "That's what's going on around here."

I'll leave you with a sneak peak from our photo shoot in Natchez a few weeks ago.  More of these beauties to come in the next few weeks or so.

Have a good one, everybody!

-Lauren

P.S. Either my computer is being wonky or my design template (background) has gone MIA.  I'll work on getting that fixed ASAP.
