You know, we don't even need any other threads...we all seem to come back to this one, lol!!
I'm still in Seattle, but I leave tomorrow

Dustin and Joy wish I would just move in with them, lol! But Mike is a little lonesome, so I better go home

It's nice to be wanted

Sounds like everybody is having a good summer. I have some pics on facebook if anybody is bored

It's so cool here! I'm going to DIE when I get home

It was 103 in the big city of Carthage today, with a heat index of 115. I'm sure the humidity is horrible!
Joy had to go to work tonight. Dustin is out on the streets with his homeless friends, but when he's done there he's taking me out with some of his co-workers to a pub. I'll let you know how that goes, lol!!

I just had a really busy August long weekend! Scott's birthday was on Wednesday and we kind of celebrated all week and topped it off by going to the drive-in for a double feature movie night on Friday

We took Layla too! We watched Dinner for Schmucks and the newest Shrek movie.

On Saturday, we went to Scott's friends' wedding. It was at this little vacation ranch east of the city that I didn't even know existed! The grounds were just beautiful and the weather was HOT and sunny. When we first got there I said that's where I want to get married. It was a simple outdoor wedding and there were even GOATS wandering around!!! The inside areas for the dinner and dance were a little too western for me though, with antlers and wagon wheels and even a buffalo head! So we've nixed that for a venue for ourselves now, but outside sure was gorgeous. This is the place: http://www.champetrecounty.com/frames/Frameset.html

Saturday night we stayed at my grandma's house in the city because it would have been twice the distance to go home. She was visiting my parents for the weekend so we were there alone! I'm so glad she let us stay there though, it was so much more convenient! We also kept Layla there for the day and drove back in between the ceremony and reception so we could express her (and we all had a nap

)

On Sunday morning we got up early and went out for breakfast with my cousin, her boyfriend, and her three kids. She was in town for the weekend visiting HIS family, and will be back again in 2 weeks to visit me and my grandma and take her kids to the fair. It's a big deal for them to come because it's about a 5 hour drive with 3 kids under 7

They are not the best behaved kids either, but they were a bit better at this meal than the others we've had! The oldest girl has a big diva attitude and is getting her mom's hypochondriac tendencies too. My cousin is already taking her to therapists for anxiety, when I feel it's probably just a way for her kid to get attention

But I smile and nod because it's not MY child!

After breakfast, we headed down to Regina for Scott's nephew's first birthday! We got home late last night and didn't even have time to unpack our bags before bed.

I can't believe that a year ago on Sunday, I moved into my condo

It feels like so much longer! I moved into that condo thinking I'd probably stay there for the next 3-5 years before buying a house. Was I ever wrong! I still miss it sometimes though. I love my house, but that condo was MINE, and when we were done with it, it was beautiful and I knew I designed it all. It was sad to let it go so soon but we just couldn't pass up the house!

WOW! Lindsay, that made me tired just reading it. It does sound like you had a great time though. I love visiting lots of family, but it is so tiring. We live away from all our family so when we go to see them, it's a never ending parade of visitation. We come home just absolutely worn out!

I'm glad you had such a good time. It sounds like Layla did well too!

Happy Birthday Scott! What a busy week you have had! You really have so much energy!

It sounds great that you visited so many people. You and Scott, and Layla are definitely participants and not observers of life!

Lindsey · 08-04-2010, 06:33 AM

lol I don't have much energy! Everything is stuffed into the few months of summer here though so it's always so busy busy busy! And I'm just exhausted all the time! This weekend I just want to stay home, maybe do some painting, and relax! I'll probably be stuck at the office working though
