June Birchbox (and other stuff)

So I just got my June Birchbox in the mail and I am REALLY pleased with all of the fun things inside! The theme of the box was "Jet Set"....travel friendly beauty products to indulge your inner jet setter!  

The bronze foil packets are self tanning towelettes by Comodynes...these will be handy during the winter months!
The face mask is a pore minimizing mask by Masqueology.
The Stila product is a three in one bronzer (primer, serum, and bronzer).  It's a good size too.  Excited to try this!
The lipgloss is actually lip gloss and cheak stain by theBalm cosmetics.
Two extras- tili zip bag in a super cute print and a sample of John Varvatos cologne for men.  Marc already wears this but still a nice treat for the boy.

In other news, my bestest friend Mo and her boyfriend got engaged last night!!!  I am so excited for them!  Kev has been my friend since kindergarten and Mo since 3rd grade....making them my oldest friends! Congratulations guys, love you both!!

Speaking of kindergarten....on Thursday I was hired to teach KINDERGARTEN in our new town.  I was ecstatic!  I skype interviewed on Tuesday and the principal called me Thursday morning to offer me the position. The school is very similar to my Atlanta school so I am thrilled.  I am really excited to teach kindergarten!  I am going to meet my new team next week since they are still in school.  Northern schools don't go back until after labor day so I will have 3 full months of of work...how NICE for me : )

Last week, I had lunch with two of my first grade teacher friends.  

Becky, me, Marcia

After lunch,  Marcia and I went to the Tumi store so I could buy Marc his birthday gift.  Since I was so excited to give it to him and it would be really hard to hid while we moved I gave it to him early.




Of course Mack has to be involved in EVERYTHING

New briefcase: This was very expensive but it was for his 32nd birthday
as well as a celebration gift for his new job


Marc was very happy with his gift.
Then we had a photo shoot with Mack.



Since we are moving Thursday, we are trying to eat at all of our favorite restaurants.
On Friday, we went to Oceanaire.  They have THE BEST fried shimp.Ever.


We had some drinks and listened to music on our deck when we came home. 


On Saturday, we hung around and bothered cuddled Mack.


Then we went to Vortex for dinner (another favorite).

Today we went to brunch and ran some errands. We just ordered in and are going to finally watch the Hatfields and McCoys...and Mad Men.  Sounds like a perfect night to me!

One week down...

I can't believe I have already had one week off of work.  Where did the time go??  I looked through my phone last night for documentation. Here's some pics.

Marc and Mack sent me last day of school flowers and wrote me a sweet little note.
Well done, Marc
Macky wasn't feeling well that morning.

   
On Saturday, Marc and I went to a friend's house for a BBQ.  Mack came and met some new friends!


I woke up to the nicest email on Sunday. 
One of the many reasons I will miss my school.

 We decided to go to the W Hotel to work on our tans, eat and drink.  While we were there, we met a GREAT groups of gays! 

We hung out with them all day and went back to their apartment that night.  We were out until 1 am!  Needless to say, we were exhausted the next morning so we had Flying Biscuit delivered. 


YUM!

The rest of the week, I spent most of my time going through my stuff so I don't bring junk to the new place.  I also laid out, ran errands, walked Mack (ALOT) and started to work out again.  My doctor gave me the okay after 5 weeks of healing my fractured rib. At this point, I can't feel my rib moving anymore so I think the break is all fixed up but I am taking it SLOW.  It feels great to be back at it.  It's funny how much you hate doing something, until you are told you can't do it!  Our only plans for the weekend are to go to dinner for the last time at our favorite restaurant and clean out our storage space....and of course, lay out in the sun : )
