June for Us

Let me blow off the dust from this here blog and begin writing. Ahem. So life's been chugging at the speed of "I can't keep up!" lately. I try to get things done and accomplish what I set out to do, and I'm lucky if I get halfway there by the end of the day. Yadda, yadda, yadda. There's nothing new under the sun. So let me make it up to you with some words and pictures, and maybe I can start attending to my blogging project a tad more consistently and timely.

Must have the obligatory picture of the offspring!
June saw us stranded for a car the night before Joey's sister's wedding. Old Reliable broke down on our way back home from the rehearsal dinner. Luckily hubby acted quickly and secured a rental for the rest of the weekend's festivities. To make a long story short, we purchased our new "pre-owned" car by June 10th. It's a 2013 Mazda 5 and we are quite taken by it. She is very zippy, classy looking, and totes up to 6 passengers giving us plenty of room for family expansion (no, I'm not pregnant lol!). It's a pretty funny transition going from having a real beater for a car to owning a pretty sweet ride... You realize that the gas peddle isn't suppose to have a 4 second delay!

The aforementioned wedding was awesome. I'm so happy for these two love birds, and so excited for their new lives together. They are the type of people whom you can't help but love for their integrity, selflessness, and cheerful and kindly hearts. They were truly made for one another.


We also attended my best friend's baby's Baptism on the 21st. It was great to see her, and see how great a mom she is. We text all the time, but it's totally a different thing to be there while she loves on her baby. What a blessed baby he is to have such an amazing mother! Being a mother and seeing motherhood blossom are two of the most glorious gifts this world has to offer...


Joey's kept busy with tutoring and wrestling camp for the remainder of June. The end of June also was eventful in that all four of us came down with a stomach bug. It started with me last Tuesday night, both boys Thursday night, and Joey Saturday night. Yes, last week wasn't fun.

It's July! Can you believe it? Also, on the 11th of this month is our 5th wedding anniversary. Holy buckets! Okay now I have to post a picture from our honeymoon.



Here's to a month full of adventure and fun for all.
