wishing I was home

For the next three weeks Jason is working in San Jose, so its just me and Cello. I'm just sitting here completely bored and wishing school wasn't monopolizing my summer. All of my family is getting ready to go to the beach for vacation and I have to admit that I am slightly jealous that I can't go with them. Most of all, I will miss them.

Here are pictures from this past family fun- packed weekend. It was my Mamaw's 80th birthday and the 4th of July. I had so much fun and it was great to see family that I had not seen in awhile!

The men working the grill

The women on the porch setting up (its funny how we unintentionally segregate)

The sign we made and had everyone sign

The Birthday Girl herself

The infamous cake

Here are pictures from our 4th of July festivities later that night!

Pickle and Joey playing corn hole

Sarah and I holding Dylan's hand during fireworks

Dad, Pickle, Jason and I stargazing ( I saw a shooting star, or was it a lightning bug?)

Sarah, Mom and I (my favorite picture of the night!)

These pictures of Jason and I aren't great, but they crack me up

anticipating the 4th

I have a super busy week ahead of me! In addition to all the assignments and tests that are due, I am trying to do some work in advance so that I can spend most of the weekend hanging out w/ my family and not worrying about school.


I can't wait! ... I can't wait to see Pickle! my cats and Suzy! and the rest of my family:) This weekend is going to be a lot of fun.


I just have to get through the week.
