Walker Family Vacation in Surfside

This is my favorite week of the whole year.  Our family gets together and relaxes to the max at a wonderful home in Surfside Beach, SC.  It is so nice to all be together and enjoy day in and out with everyone.  The Magil's stay a few doors down which adds even more excitement! Thank you Mama and Daddy for making our family beach trip a priority every single year!

Sea Island Part II

June 17-20

My 2nd beach vacation with the Callaway's.  Unfortunately Ben's sister, Anne, couldn't come down this year...she was definately missed!  We had a wonderful time riding bikes, going to great dinners, relaxing by the pool, enjoying the beach, kayaking with the dolphins, and having great family time!  Thank you to the Callaway's for letting me enjoy their wonderful vacation!

WHEW!

Time to start blogging again.  In the past six weeks I have been doing the following:

Clearwater Florida for 4 days - Bachelorette Party for Kayte Stanbery
Black Rock Mountain, GA 3 days - Camping Get-a-way
Lake Tahoe, CA 2 days - Jonathan Boncek's Wedding
San Francisco - 3 days - Pleasure
Cincinnati 1 day - job interview with Paycor
Miami  8 days - work conference at Fontainbleau
Asheville - 3 days for Sara Bader's wedding

During this time away, my nephew, Foster Perry Pangle, was born! (He will have his own post).  I hated to be away for his birth, but have been able to love him up in between trips.   Also, unplanned or expected, I was offered a wonderful opportunity with a competitor in the payroll industry...AND after 4 wonderful years at Paychex, I resigned two weeks ago today.  It was a very hard decision, but I am very happy to now be an employee of Paycor Inc.

I am so excited to share all of my photos from my recent adventures!  Although I have not had much down time, I will say that I could not be any happier with life, work, family, friends and my relationship with Ben!

I am a true believer that God  never gives you more than you can handle!
