League Members and their 4th of July...

In the spirit of "the blog", below captures the personal moments of how fellow League members spent their 4th of July holiday. I asked a randomly selected portion of our membership, to share with us, a little about how they spent this past weekend. How did you spend yours? Send your family photos and experiences to leslieh@premieronline.com As always... these "wonder women" had and exciting weekend full of memorable experiences! Tammi Haas with son Robby (5 years old), husband Brian, and daughter Emily (2 years old). Tammi: "I spent my Fourth of July Weekend with my husband's family in Bartow and Lakeland. The girls spent an afternoon out to lunch and shopping while the guys duked it out on the golf course (Robby joined them)! The rest of the weekend was spent grilling out by the pool and watching fireworks. It was a great opportunity to celebrate the summer with those that we love the most!" Melanie Truesdell notes: "Our 4th was okay, as Scott and the girls were in a car accident on the 3rd. Everyone was fine (girls just a bit sore, but fine by weekend - Scott still very, very sore, but nothing serious - he has to go see a Chiropractor 6 days a week though :( ). My car is totaled, so that kind of stinks. A guy passed out and hit Scott going 55 miles/hr. Scott was stopped waiting to make a left. " "My pink stilettos remind you of my Manhattan roots – remnant of Summer holidays in the Hamptons rubbing elbows with notable New Yorkers. But since my divorce, I’ve stopped traveling; I’ve become stagnate—“Alone” often rings loud in my ears and in my heart. This year I finally ditched that insecurity and created a true Independence Day. Boarding a plane this July 4th, I single-handedly headed for the Wild West— Montana. Over the next five days an amazing change transpired; I became a pioneer, discovering a new way to see the country—striking out on my own, in charge of my own destiny. Literally shaking in my boots on day one—surrounded by happy families on vacation, I felt a little lonely. Once I made my mind up to savour my independence, the experience was quite empowering. By day five, I felt a little wild; the big skies, vast mountain range, and better still, the power to do what I wanted—when I wanted. I have to say, venturing out of my comfort zone—and alone—was fantastic! I tried a new sport, new food, saw new states, and met new faces along the way. I’m sure my foremothers would be proud." -Leslie McCutchin

Allison Lee spent her holiday in the big apple!. There for business, with her company Noble Juice, she and her associates enjoyed food tradeshow of sorts! Sounds tasty! Below is Allison pictured with celebrity chef Paula Dean, her husband and son.
Wendy: “The Morris Family spent their 3-day weekend enjoying family, friends and food! On Friday evening, we watched the nighttime ski show at the Gardens followed by the fireworks display from the boat of good friends. Saturday we spent the day cooking out, swimming and hanging out with family & friends! Why can’t every week have a 3-day weekend?!?!?”

WOW!!! - are these ladies superheros or what! What an amazing group I am so proud to be associated with; loving family, life and soaking up all it has to offer!
