No pics.....

Its been a while!  We've been super busy around our house, between working, friends, my birthday, working, house projects and also working a little bit it seems like we've hardly had any time to breathe!

Some recent highlights of our life include:
Sunday Funday on July 17 with our good friends to go see the *LAST* Harry Potter movie.  We drove down to Lawrence, had  breakfast and watched Deathly Hallows pt 1, had some bloody Mary's at our favorite local spot, and then enjoyed the conclusion of more than a decade of movies and books!

My birthday (OMG 28) on July 19, we went out for a very nice dinner at the Melting Pot.  There were some issues w gnats attempting to eat our food as well, and so I called them the next day and the are sending us a gift cert. for another visit. 

I made the first step in getting the "great closet remodel of 2011" underway.  I moved all our hanging clothes to a rolling rack that the former roomie left for us.  Now I can see exactly how many shoes we have cluttering the floor of the closet. I for see another goodwill trip in our future, I'm pretty sure I've never seen some of these shoes.....

We got new couches (well new to us. we are the 3rd generation in my family to use them.....) for the basement.  I'm thinking that if I can find some good slipcovers I'd like to switch them for the couches upstairs and put the big squishy ones down in the basement. 

One of Spencer's best friends from growing up recently got engaged and so we have a wedding to attend before the end of the year!  (I've been going through wedding withdrawals, its been at least 6 mos since we attended one!) and I'm super excited for them!

Another one of Spencer's bff's --do guys have bff's??-- and his wife are due this October with their first little boy.  I've been going *slightly* crazy walking past all the baby things I want to buy for them....

We've had several friends who are either giving birth today (scheduled C-section) or have had their first babies within the last few weeks, its such a wonderful thing to see the love and commitment to their new growing families!

I need to get my photos from a lot of these events uploaded and once I do you can expect a photo filled post!
