I’m Still Here
Okay…so I missed a week on posting a blog update. Sorry about that. My life has actually been quite busy since we returned from Alaska. Laundry has been and still is piled up…it is just one of those things that never disappears. Last weekend my grandparent’s and uncle came into town so Matt and I tried to see them as much as we could. We did take time out to go to the Moonlight Drive-In theater in Woodbury to see Ratatouille and Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Matt and I enjoyed both movies immensely.
Matt and I spent a very relaxing 4th of July. Matt took me to breakfast at Cracker Barrel…I had their strawberry pancake breakfast that wasn’t on my diet, but still tasted wonderful. After breakfast we headed to Lowe’s to buy a grill that we had been looking into. It was on sale for 20% off, so what better time to buy…right? After that we went to Target and then to Toys-R-Us to buy Ty, our nephew, a birthday present. He will turn 2 on Tuesday, July 17. (When I asked Ty what he wanted for his birthday his response was: “CAKE!” We did get him more than cake, but his answer was adorable. I love kids…especially that one.) Lastly on the 4th, we went over to a church member’s house for a Sunday School cookout and then watched the fireworks. It was a wonderful day.
Friday, my mom and dad came over to try out the new grill. Dad cooked his famous and most delicious hamburgers. Mom cooked campfire potatoes that were great. I didn’t do didley squat…I’m spoiled…what can I say? After dinner, we all bowled on the Nintendo Wii. I won which was nice. After bowling we switched to golf…I lost…not so nice, but oh well.
Yesterday, I worked with Angie Gambill from Gambill Photography on a wedding in Shelbyville. The wedding was beautiful. Hopefully she will post those pictures on her blog in the next few weeks. While I was off taking pictures, Matt took one of the cars and washed it, waxed it, checked the oil, etc. Then he came home and mowed right before the rain hit. Today we went to church. So, like I said…we’ve been pretty busy.
I will try to keep up a little bit better so my next post won’t be quite so lengthy. By the way, some of you may be wondering why I haven’t posted any pictures lately. The reason is because I haven’t taken any new pics lately and the reason I haven’t taken any new pics lately is because the spiffy camera I was using is currently broken (remember, it broke on my Alaska trip). Somehow, after using nicer cameras, using the little point and shoots just don’t do much for me. I will definitely take pictures of Ty’s birthday and will try to get those posted for you.
Have a great week!
