summer update.

being home for the summer has been great!  in fact, it's been so great that i've neglected the blog.  here's what's been goin' on:

1. can i just say i have the most amazing family? it's fun to be around them again. here are some pics from a little trip to island park over memorial day weekend. 




2. i've already gotten sick twice this summer.  great start, eh?  i had a nasty cold for a couple of weeks and now i have this weird throat infection thing--i'm on antibiotics now and am starting to feel better--i can't wait to get back to work!

3. work? yes, i got a job about 2 weeks after i got home, which is a huge blessing considering the fact that jobs are so hard to find lately. i'm a nanny and i love it! i get to spend time with the funnest kids around (more blogs to come later).  these are pics from Rees' 6th birthday party.  She's on the far left and that's her dad, Jared, helping the girls make pizza. and check out that cake! 


4. ariel just finished her london study abroad and is heading back home to maryland today!  she sent me postcards from the amazing places she traveled to all over europe. here's ariel in glencoe scotland.

so there are my updates.  hope everyone is having a great summer so far! <3
