Well, my time in North Carolina is coming to an end!

It’s been really fun though, but a lot of work. I tried to do my best with eating healthy while I was here, but I didn’t get to work out much at all. With me, Cody and Zoie in a little studio apartment and being gone about 12 hours a day, I've had no time or room to keep up with my workout regimen.

Yet somehow, I feel like I’ve lost some weight. My pants are a bit looser — I have no idea how it happened, but I’m not asking any questions! Now when I get home, I’m going to hop back on the treadmill and keep up with my program a lot better!

I did bring my Nutrisystem with me though and was able to bring it to the set most days. Thank goodness the food is really easy to take wherever you go, that really saved me from eating some of the unhealthy craft service food! 

These past couple of weeks seem to have gone quickly and now I can’t wait to get home.  It was like a little vacation for the family, but I think going home and laying in my own bed will be the best part. Cody started his drive home late last night in hopes that he’ll arrive back at about the same time as I do this weekend.

Ah, home sweet home!!

Hey everyone!

I'm here in North Carolina on the set of my first feature film, Port City!

I'll write more later, but here are a couple of photos I can share with you now:


From left to right, that's Andy Brown the writer/director of the film; me; our producer Heath Franklin, and John Wesley Schipp who plays "George" — and don't forget our sound guy Nate behind us with the boom mic! 

Wow! This has been the busiest week I’ve had in a while. I arrived in Wilmington, N.Car., late last Saturday and have been going ever since.

It’s really exciting filming my first movie. It’s a completely different experience than anything I’ve ever done before — longer days for a much smaller amount of scenes. We usually shoot about 5-6 pages a day and that has been averaging about 12 hours a day!

The cast and crew of Port City are really great though and a lot of fun to work with.  I couldn’t have asked for a more fun experience.

Cody and Zoie came with me too, of course! They’ve been getting to spend a lot of good “baby & daddy” time together while I’m at work. I have this weekend off, so we are planning on heading out to tour around and do some touristy things.

We went to Wrightsville Beach yesterday for lunch on the water. The beaches are totally different here than in California!

I can’t believe we’ve been here for a week already. With only one more week of filming, it’ll go by quickly. I definitely miss home!

Well, this has been an incredibly busy week! 

Cody and I went to several events this weekend including the Teen Choice Awards Pre-Party, the Maxim X Games party and The Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget. All the while, trying to pack and get ready to take off for our trip to North Carolina. 

It was a lot of fun though, the most enjoyable was probably Bob’s roast since I got to see several of the Full House cast members. Dave Coulier, Lori Loughlin, John Stamos, Scott Weinger and of course Bob were all in attendance.

It was a hilarious show! Definitely not kid friendly though, but for all the adults out there I think it’s a must see. I think it airs on August 17th on Comedy Central. They weren’t too mean to most of the people on the show, although the Olsen Twins did get quite a few jokes made at their expense. At times they went a bit far and were mean to them, but I guess that’s to be expected at a roast. No one is safe! 

Then yesterday and today has been consumed with packing. You don’t realize how much stuff two people and a baby need for a few weeks until you have to fit it into your car! But we stuffed it all in and Cody drove off this afternoon — To be a fly on the wall in that car all the way across country!! Ha! He’s driving because he’s never flown before and is scared… We’ll have to work on that. 

More exciting Zoie news, she’s getting her first two teeth! I can’t believe it! Of course, now she’s pretty fussy all the time and I’m sort of dreading having to fly with her. I think we’ll survive it though! I just have to hope she sleeps the whole way. 

I’m getting more and more nervous about the movie, but it should go great. It’s a fun script and there are some really nice people working on the project. So now I just have to keep my fingers crossed that Zoie, Cody and I have safe, easy travels and by this time next week we’ll be in North Carolina!
