A quick recap of the wonderful, yet over summer:
- Emily graduated from college, and started a "real job" in the "real world".
- We experienced the Wii in a whole different light: Wii Fit rocks, whoever came up with the idea of exercise and fun together is a genius!!
- Wii experience number 2: Mario Cart over took us ......it is an addicting game!!
- Joe took a second job at Starbucks.
- I got the position that was well deserved as the Neuro/trauma physical therapist at the hopsital. Well worth waiting for!! I can actually say I love what I am doing and enjoy my job very much.
- Joe and I got to see a Neil Diamond concert in St. Paul.
- We got to spend time acting like little kids at the MN Zoo and Como Zoo.
- We both attended out 10 year High School Reunions. Wow, how time flies and people change.
- Got food poisioning. (That was something we don't want to talk about.)
- Joe won a case of steaks through playing in a golf tournament.
- My mom and I dug out my garden and planted some pretty flowers. It's still looking good!
- The biggest of all events and most expensive was reroofing our house. It looks great now!! The first day I drove around the corner and saw the roof, it looked great! The color matches the house perfectly, and the house actually LOOKS nice now. Next year we will paint, or possibly side. As of now we aren't too sure, but something else will be done. Owning your own home is nice, but the upkeep sometimes out weighs everything.
- We bought ourselves a canoe and ventured down the Brule River with two good friends. Communication is extremely important when it comes to directions when traveling down the river.....bad communication just lead to funny moments though!
- Played alittle mini golf with Seth and Traci, and Andy and Suzanne and then had a great dinner Joe cooked those wonderful steaks as I defrosted desert.
- Painted our kitchen. No more "pink" color, hello sandy tan and a marshmellow white!
- I experienced another birthday. Number 29, still under 30! As Joe called this my 4th 25th birthday. He's afraid of being older than 25 these days. Not too sure why though. It was a good b-day. Nothing too exciting happened, other than work, dinner and spending some quality time with my husband.
- And tomorrow we will have my best friend up to visit for a couple of days!
All in all, the summer was great. No children yet even though most of our friends traveled down that road this summer, but our time isn't now. Even though the summer is over with, as of tomorrow, more great things will happen, bad things will happen, and we'll just have to deal with them too! Life just keeps us wondering what's next. That's why it's always a mystery. Time for fall to come, Apple Fest to attend, then halloween. Soon after that will be Thanksgiving then Christmas. Before that, it'll be 2009. Time flies, doesn't it!?
