Summertime and the livin's easy....

So let me start off by saying that I took this whole blog title "A Little Bit of Jessica Here I am..." a bit literal I think. I've been a little busy with everyday life mixed with lack of sleep has not given me any extra motivation to get on here and blog! So I'm going to focus on trying a little harder! So let me get to it already.

Friday night was spent at Wild Duck (which is a restaurant/bar on the water) with a few good friends just hanging out and enjoying the beautiful weather with a cold drink in our hands and our toes in the sand. Well, to be honest my flippy floppy's never came off, but we were in the sand so it's all the same! The atmosphere there was great! Being that I grew up on the water, I just love spending any free time I can by the water or on the water. So in between all us girls taking a million pictures (to blog about of course) we took it easy while relaxing in beach chairs and taking strolls down the peer all while watching the sun set. It was truly the perfect end to the crazy day of work I endured earlier that day.

I loved this picture! I thought it turned out neat


Saturday, Dan and I had a surprise birthday party to attend. It was actually his father's 70th surprise party and some how it managed to stay a surprise. I'm famous for putting my foot in my mouth at times so I was sure I would probably end up screwing this one up and letting the cat out of the back, so to speak. All turned out well though and he was truly surprised and extremely touched (I think I even saw a tear)! It was a good time had by all. Dan's Aunt from Texas came in to town for the party and family who we hadn't seen in months all showed up too. It was so nice catching up with everyone and getting to spend some quality time together. I know my husband Dan and his father both really enjoyed themselves. It was definitely a special day and something special to celebrate since Dan's father had surgery back in January for his back, which we all know can be serious, but it took a turn for the worse when he had a heart attack while there. Everything ended up being okay and Dan's dad is on the right path of getting and staying healthy so I see many more birthday's in his future!

Surprise!
