I'm still here!

Sorry for the lack of updates - I'm really bad at this, aren't I? I spent most of last week laying on the couch sick with sinus problems. Actually, I only missed one day of work, but I left early two other days, and I had already been sick beginning the weekend prior. I finally felt better late last week. I basically lost a week, which stinks, but it did give me time to read the Twilight series when reading wasn't giving me a worse headache. I like the storyline between Bella and Edward (what woman wouldn't die for an "Edward" in her life?) but I have to say that the books weren't the best I've read. (They're definitely not the best vampire books I've read.) I feel like the author reused main plots between books and she rambled too. Regardless, if you're in the mood for a never-ending-love type story, you should give them a try. The movie was not very good, though I think that might have more to do with the director (who was fired for the 2nd movie) than anything else. The second movie comes out in the fall, but I haven't decided if I'll see it. The best part of the first movie was watching it with the commentary from the director and two main stars (Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson). Pattinson kept making fun of himself, so that was entertaining. Here's a pic. He's reeaally good looking.


Anyway, the DF and I will be home with family for the 4th. I'll get to see Auntie502 as well, so I'm looking forward to that. Cross your fingers for good weather!!

Wedding Bells!

The DF and I headed to Evansville this past weekend for a close friend's wedding. Steven was a groomsman. I didn't really know anyone at the rehearsal and dinner except for the DF's guy friends, but I met one of his friends' new wife, Bailey. She was tons of fun, and I really enjoyed hanging out with her. After the rehearsal dinner, everyone headed out for some drinks and fun. Our hotel was near a lot of bars and restaurants, so we walked everywhere. It was really nice. We got in late Friday night/Saturday morning, but everyone was ready on time for the wedding on Saturday. The DF's tux was chocolate brown and pink, which I wasn't a huge fan of, but he looks good in pink so it worked out once he took his jacket off. The DF's family came down for the wedding and reception, so I got to sit with them. We came back yesterday and I did some laundry. We had a great time, but I'm glad it was our last busy weekend of the summer, at least for now. I know it seems like summer is just beginning, but it's been a long couple of months! Anyway, here are some pics!

What's going on?

The DF and I saw Coldplay perform last weekend, and it was really awesome. Coldplay is probably one of my top 3 favorite bands, and I haven't been to any music concerts in forever. It was a ton of fun, but I don't have any good photos. Our camera batteries are acting up, and we were running a little late that night, so I didn't bring it. Oh well!! The picture I've posted is pretty representative of Chris Martin. He has a ton of energy and is constantly running around. He must have been a lot to handle as a kid!

On the agenda for this week is a wedding this weekend. One of the DF's close friends is getting married, and Steven is a groomsman. I'm pretty sure the groomsmen are wearing brown tuxes with pink ties. This is either going to look really good, or really bad. I'll be sure to take lots of photos for everyone to decide. :)

Woohoo!

Today was the first day of the DF's fourth year of medical school! He'll graduate around this time next year and finally be a doctor! Then he'll do his OB/GYN residency (which is only another 4 years...). It's all very exciting!! Here's a pic of his first day! :)

Edit: Rereading this makes it sound like this pic is from this year - it's from his very first day of school, back in 2006!
