Summer Time in the City

Hello again!  It seems as if I've been really struggling to get these updates done every weekend, but here goes nothing!

Between work and activities, it's been buuu-sayyy!  But busy doesn't mean there isn't room for a little fun in between (maybe no sleep, but certainly time for fun!)  In fact, sometimes a little bit of work gets mixed with a little bit of play...like two weekends ago when Dad, Seth, and I packed into the car and drove to Connecticut for my niece, Marialyse's, graduation.  It was a fun weekend getting to see all of the family and I'm glad we were able to make it!  Congratulations, Marialyse!

Speaking of fun, last week was great because we had a mid-week holiday to celebrate the 4th of July. We spent the day BBQ'ing and soaking up some sun at Veronica and Audrey's.  To really show our patriotic spirit we ran up to the local market and bought some fireworks for our big finale :)

As a matter of fact, given that the 4th of July is now almost a week behind us, it's hard to believe how quickly the summer is passing...it will be done before we know it!  And work will be done even sooner - and that makes me so sad, because I really am loving it so much!!!  But since time is passing by quickly, we are continuing to make the most of it by filling our weekends with a good brunch, pool time, and fun nights with friends :)

Well, that's about all I have time for tonight...RuPaul's Drag U is wrapping up and I have to get some beauty rest...because as you will see below, I'm up with the sun every day :)
