Visitors

Matthew's parents are coming on Thursday afternoon for a long weekend visit to Pittsburgh. It'll be lovely to see them! They haven't been here in three years! The last time they were here was to move Matthew. We know our way around the city and cool places to eat, so it should be a great chance to show off the city and spend time with them!

Last week

I can't believe that tomorrow starts the very last week of camp for Summer 2011! This summer has absolutely flown by! I was so worried about how things were going to work out this summer, but it turns out, they were awesome! All the staff stepped up and we had wonderful campers! I couldn't have been happier!

This summer was also a test of my ability to truly lead a group of adults and campers and be responsible for their well being. Sometimes it sucked and other times it was great! I'm proud of how much I've grown as a leader. I know that I'm capable of having responsibility thrust upon me and can succeed.

I know that I've let my social life fall by the wayside, but that was my choice. I intend to have somewhat of a life again starting next week. I'm hoping to see The Help and Crazy Stupid Love one of these days. Hopefully Jessi will want to come along as well:)

Time to start winding down and getting ready for bed.

Here's to a wonderful last week!

This weekend, Matthew and I attended the glorious wedding celebration of Tony and Sherry! I spent last week being a little weird about getting married but after going to Tony and Sherry's wedding and having one of the best nights of the summer, my resolve to plan my own wedding has been renewed! I can't wait to get married! I'm excited to start planning as soon as camp is over. I'm excited to look at wedding dresses and pick colors and make decisions:)

Seeing how happy Tony and Sherry were made me happy. Their wedding was beautiful, classy and full of all my favorite people. I want my wedding to be just as much fun!

Here's to less than a year left of until the big day!

Weddings!

This past weekend, Matthew and I drove home to EC to celebrate Kyle and Jessica's wedding! It was a beautiful day and wonderful weekend! Pictures to follow, since Matthew's still in EC and has the camera.

I flew back on Sunday night to Pittsburgh and am flying back to Minneapolis on Friday for Tony and Sherry's wedding (which has the potential for wedding of the year, if you ask me). I can't wait to see those two tie the knot! When I met Tony in 2004, I never thought he'd get married, much less before me:) I wish both of them the best and am so glad to share in their special day!

Summer camp has 2.5 weeks left! I can't believe how quickly this summer has flown by! What happened to July!?
