Back in the Groove

I am not even apologizing for how long it's been since I've blogged.  I do that way too much.  So I refuse.  I am recommitting myself yet again to blogging.  It may only last a week, but I'm doing it nonetheless.  :)

Life has not slowed down a single bit since my last post nearly three months ago.  Yes... nearly three months ago.  I think since it has been oh-so-long since I have posted, a quick highlight reel is necessary.

• David and I have a nephew - I think I have mentioned this - but his name is Will and he is awesome and just so cute.  We got to meet him at the end of March, and I really can't wait to see him again. 
• Hamilton had his second birthday.  We took him to the dog park along with his three best doggie friends - Manning, Wilson and Bella.  He had so much fun he laid down after about 10 minutes.
• I read the Hunger Games series.  I will blog about this.  
• The Fayetteville Farmers' Market opened in April and we have been three or four times.  Hamilton is a fan of pooping at the Farmers' Market.  Sometimes in the middle of a crowd.  We now carry biodegradable poo bags when we are going to the Market -- just in case.
• David and I are one of four couples competing in our very own Bachelorette Fantasy League.  We have "drafted" bachelors and gain points by all of the silly things they do on the show.  Very cheap entertainment and it's great to spend time with friends.  
• I took a trip to Nashville over Memorial Day weekend with my mom.  We went in search of a huge flea market.  Unfortunately, the flea market was a bust, so we filled the day with outlet mall shopping and going to the Grand Ole Opry!  On the way home, and in desperate need of Starbucks, I decided to utilize technology and route us there via iPhone.  We did find the nearest Starbucks, but sadly, it was inside the Nashville Airport.  Mickey D's it was!
• I got to hang out at the lake on Memorial Day with mom and dad.  Dad decided it was time to purchase a wave runner... so I had a lesson and took it out for a spin.  I don't have a great need for speed, so when David came to meet me on his way home from Indy, I insisted on driving the wave runner topping out just short of 30 miles per hour - and screaming the entire time.
• I finally caved and started reading Fifty Shades of Grey.  Oh. My.  I will not be blogging about this.
• David and I invited our friends James and Silvy and their two boys to the lake last weekend.  David does have a need for speed, and got the wave runner up to 50 miles per hour - without screaming.  It was so much fun!

Life on the Lake

It's only Wednesday, but I am looking forward to the weekend.  I am hoping it is full of relaxing, a trip to the Farmers' Market (hopefully sans poop), crafting time and maybe a little work around the house.
