.....September 8th? .....Seriously?
**I originally started writing this blog on 9/8.. now its 9/21!!! Perfect example of this post!**
I don't even know where to begin! Looking back at this blog I can't believe I haven't even posted since our trip to San Diego, in MAY, which not only "seems" like forever ago, but really IS forever ago!!! So many amazing and fun things have happened in the last three (four) months! I will try to do a quick re-cap of our life this summer, and post pictures to go along, but I know I wont be able to put into words what a great summer it has been.
"Time flies when you're having fun" has never been proven more true than this summer! We literally had something going on every weekend - whether it was camping, Eagle Crest, the Oregon coast, Steph's bachelorette weekend and wedding, hiking, rafting in Southern Oregon, Bri's wedding, Lake Billy Chinook, Whit and Matt's visit, our engagement party, Linda and Larry's party... I could go on!!! We literally pressed "go" at the beginning of the summer and haven't slowed down since.
Most recently, we were blessed with THREE FULL WEEKS with Whitney and Matt! Being able to spend three weeks with them was an absolute blast, but again, it will be difficult to put into words how much fun, laughter, and great memories we created and shared while they were here. And the fact that THIS TIME we got to throw in ultrasounds and shopping for the little baby boy bun in the oven made it that much more exciting!
Derek and I both feel so thankful that we have such awesome families. How often can you say that your family members are also some of your very best friends? We are so thankful for our parents, brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews. We are so lucky to live in such close proximity to our family and share such great times any day of the week.
