Sushi and Pitas

July 1st and I'm feeling more blessed than ever.

Brian and I had a fun karaoke night on Friday, we had some wine and sang our hearts out. We had a wonderful and fun night. Then on Saturday we went to Lauren and Dave's engagement party which was nice. Lots of happy people there. It's good to see Lauren and Dave so happy. After that party we then went to his Aunt Gerri's for Kevin and Emily's birthday parties. His whole family was there and I love them so much. They are funny, sweet and good people. His grandmom and I get along well, she's a talker like me. =o) And they had this awesome birthday cake. I need to get the number of that bakery! We watched home videos of the family and I had quite a few laughs, no, not all at Brian. It was just so cool to see a video of someone else's family, and to know that I am going to be a part of that family, too. Even if Mr. Stephan thinks I'm a P.I.T.A.

Saturday morning my Mom and I had a pretty darn successful yard sale. She said I was an excellent publicist. Apparently something worked, because we had so many people show up to this sale! We made over $200 and almost $150 of it was mine. =o) It all went into the bank immediately.

Needless to say Saturday night I was exhausted, but Bri and I ended up eating nachos and salsa and watching "Lady in the Water" which he had not seen before. He loved it, I knew he would. That movie is just incredible, if you haven't seen it you really need to rent and/or buy it because it's amazing.

Today I spent most of the day with my Mom over at the pool. I finished a book, which I'll write about on the book blog. It was an interesting story and I'm not sure how I feel about it even now that I am done.

My Grandpa came out and said "You guys gonna come in for some ham and cabbage?" My Mom and I looked at each other and shook our heads. Said we weren't hungry. Then Grandpa said "You don't have to be hungry to come in an be sociable." Hahaha. Five minutes later we both got out of the pool, dried off and went in to see my Grandparents. The stories we ended up telling and hearing were hysterical. I swear, my family is nearly insane. Nearly. In fact, I think I might be the most sane believe it or not. To my Mom seeing bears riding bicycles to my Dad seeing dead camels being lifted off the side of the road. Seriously, I don't know how I made it to the age of 26 so normal. Haha. It was a lot of fun to hear all the craziness.

And now my boy is home from his weekend at his father's house. We ate some pizza and then I went over to the pool again. Brae wanted to go swimming. We blew up a giant sea turtle float. Both Brae and I were able to float on it at the same time. I asked Brae what he would name the sea turtle. He thought about this some and then he told me the turtle's name is "Sushi." Quite frankly I think that is a brilliant name.

He is being very loving, I am getting many hugs and kisses and he has stopped me at least a dozen times in the last two hours to tell me he loves me.

Brian isn't feeling well and I haven't seen him today. Of course Brae is missing him, too and has asked many times if he is coming over "after." Haha. I assured him that Bri will be around as soon as he feels better.

And so now here I am, filling you all in and letting you know how happy I am. Missing my Bri of course, but feeling so content with my beautiful life. =o) I hope everyone had a great weekend!
