Recent 'tivs...

Why spell out "activities" when you can sound really cool and hip by shortening it to 'tivs? Duuuuude.

I am currently listening to a newly discovered artist, Sufjan Stevens. So far, so good. I have an increasing bent towards more mellow, acoustic, and folky music these days. What next? Country?!? Nay, never! :)

This summer has been full of busy weekends. I've already been to 4 weddings- woah! Last weekend, Andrew and Katy got married, so of course I had to go up to Leo for the weekend to spend time with the many Leonians beloved to my soul. Saturday night, Em, Ti and I went bowling. It was SO fun! I just love both of these girls....


We bowl with pizazz....
Sunday Morning, Em, Dani, Ti and I traversed to B-town for the wedding. Apparently blue and black were the colors of the day!
Daveana & Sarena
Leah, Emily, and Ashley-- a smashing trio and 2 beautiful bridesmaids

Then this past weekend was Carolyn's graduation party in Leo.....yay for Carolyn!! :)
Rach and Jason-- they hosted the party like pros.... no surprise there...

Em slaved away and made 60 delectable cupcakes! Hmmmm como se dice virtuous woman en.... every language? ;)
Shar & Jaret
Steph and Phil surprised us all and showed up- hoorah!
Smith and Aves
By the end of the day, Faye was literally bouncing off the walls-- getting a picture of her that wasn't a big blur was truly a notable feat!
Hehe....
It's always great to have weekend plans to look forward to, but I must say it will be grand to go home this weekend and relax.

Hope everyone is having a super summer--until next time!
