So apparently if I blog twice a month, I'm doing pretty good! As always, I have to recap. It'd be nice if I could just blog as life went along...but I am too slow. Here we go! Friday afternoon my sister, Jennifer and my BFF, Sarah headed south for the weekend. You know I have to take 35,000 photos. Here are some from the ride:

| lol....Jennifer was trying to pose while staying focused on the road. |
We finally arrived at our hotel, which was in downtown Mobile. I knew we'd picked the right choice when I saw the front doors!
I love me some history and this place felt like a different time period! It was gorgeous. It had a very European feel and the staff was fantastic! They were so nice. My only complaint was the complimentary shampoo was a sham and poo. And the shower was tricky...it was super easy to scald yourself! But I'm used to having not enough hot water here, so that was a nice change...haha. The hotel has only 40 rooms and every room's decor is different. Makes me wanna stay there 39 other times and get a different room every time.

| Sarah and I were crazy bout some exposed brick wall...I want one! |
 |
| The beautiful courtyard! It was foggy. We had a good time talking outside at night. |
We visited two beaches during our trip. Gulf Shores, Alabama has been a favorite vacation spot in our family since my early childhood. It's a family friendly beach, with lots of good restaurants. I care nothing about bars and clubs...Just give me some shrimp, k thanks.
The second beach we visited was Pensacola, Florida. Oh my goodness...I am in love with this place. I would love to move there! Jennifer and I discovered this area during our trip last year. There is a 7 mile stretch with NO hotels, no power lines, absolutely nothing but beach.

| My car in the beach parking lot. It was clean so I had to get a pic...haha. |
Okay, so that's it for trip photos right now. Sorry if we are friends on facebook because I already posted them! haha.
One other quick thing before I go. Yesterday was my 22nd birthday. I know, I know...no big deal really. But I wanted to do something different. I'm sick and tired of always being and looking the same. Sooo I chopped my hair off. Not a pixie, mind you. But I chopped quite a bit off!
What have you guys been up to this month? Can you believe it's almost August?! Ahhh...
