Hot Summer Days

Summer has certainly arrived.  Lately it has been so hot & humid.  I should probably be thankful that I have to spend the majority of my week inside at work, but I'm not. I LOVE being outdoors. So I try to make up for it by running and sitting outside with Travis in the evenings. Two weekends ago we spent the weekend at Travis' family reunion.  Travis spent his morning playing golf with the boys. We went horseback riding that afternoon, (my first time) it was as fun. Then we had a picnic dinner with everyone that evening.  We had a "snowball" fight with the kids AND adults after dinner (pretty cute game!). Then we played mini-golf with the kids that night. Followed by phase 10 with Trav's grandma.

This past weekend we went home for Travis' parents' 25th wedding anniversary party.  I spent Saturday trying to help decorate. This turned out to be a difficult task since half of the party was outside and rain and wind tried to destroy everything we were doing.  In the end, it looked very nice. And the party itself was alot of fun! I'm disappointed that I didn't take my phone or camera inside the party.  I feel like I'm slacking on taking pictures. I'm taking my phone or camera everywhere from now on! (The photographer at the party,  however, did get a shot of trav and I ((Classic Black Photography)) I spent all day Sunday just hanging out with my grandma before we went back to Lexington.

I can't believe this week is already here, MOVING WEEK! Thursday, Travis and I finally get to move into our new apt.  We have basically been waiting for this day for 4 years ;) We are both very excitied, and happy that it is finally time to move in!

The Weekend of Four!

This weekend (Friday, the 1st) was my four year anniversary with my boyfriend, Travis.  I can't believe it has been FOUR years since we started dating. It was the summer before our senior year of highschool & now we are about to begin our senior year of college together.  We are truly so blessed to have found each other at 17.  He is my soulmate and I love him more than anything! <3 I gave Travis a scrapbook of our fourth year (I make one every year ;) & he got me some beautiful flowers. After work he took me to dinner at Malones, one of my favorite places to eat.  Afterwards we came back home to enjoy some cookie cake for dessert. Then we went to a late showing of Transformers 3, which we both LOVED. Definitely a summer must see!

Saturday we went to Georgetown to see some family.  I was especially happy to see my grandmother :)
The rest of the weekend was spent laying out by the pool, watching the Casey Anthony Trial, and working out, of course.  Travis had to work most of the weekend so our fourth of July weekend was different than usual.  We normally spend it on Norris Lake in Tennessee with Travis' family, but we made the most of our fourth here in Lexington. We went downtown and watched the fireworks show there. Now after 4 days off it is back to work today! Luckily, only 2.5 days til the weekend!
