Something Different


This week has been a little different. I am house/babysitting a 17 and two 15 year olds (And no I did not make them play mall madness for hours on end like I once did for a babysitter). I have spent hours sitting inside a house (that is not mine) bored out of my mind. Today is my last day so we are going out for a fun dinner. I have missed Kyle and Lucy like crazy. It has been hard to be by myself and know that I am stuck here. I found myself doing homework that isn't due for another week, working out and sometimes even reading books for pleasure. Yesterday I spent the entire day counting down the hours and minutes until I got to go to dinner with Kyle (kind of like when we first started dating). So as the time drew closer and closer, I got ready and might have been speeding to see Lucy and Kyle when Kyle called to say he was home from work. We decided to go get dinner and come home and watch our (more Kyle's than mine)favorite show with Lucy. After many laughs in the drive through at Sonic we headed home with our greasy food and just relaxed and ate. After a short hour I headed back to house/babysitting...... and I found myself in the best mood driving home. I don't know if it was..
...the good greasy food
...seeing crazy goose
...hanging out with Kyle
...or a good episode of survivor...

maybe it was the mix of all four, all in all a Happy Wednesday!

Wedding Festivities

On Thursday Kyle and I head to San Francisco for a little vacation and Collyn's wedding. Here is a little bit of the agenda and no worries I will definitely be bringing the camera and take lots and lots of pictures. We head out Thursday night after work and fly into Oakland, California. Then we are spending our first night with Kyle's Aunt Judy and Uncle Johnny. We wake up Friday and head to a wine tasting with the wedding party and guests at noon. We have a free Friday night to explore Santa Rosa where were staying. The Wedding is on Saturday at Kunde Family Estates.
After wedding festivities all day Saturday we have a farewell breakfast Sunday morning and then it's off to explore San Fran until our flight Sunday night. We are extremely excited to see Collyn and Corey get married, get out of town and explore a new city. Join me in counting down the days.... 5 more
*Thanks to Jen our puppy sitter, who is making all this possible :-)*

Something Different

This weekend was once again filled with new events. I spent the day wedding dress shopping for my sister. Little did I know how much work wedding dress shopping would be. We were all exhausted by 2 when we wrapped up our first of many days of dress shopping. After continuing my day I topped it off with a nap with Lucy. Kyle and I tired something different at night and had a date night on a Saturday. We have been together for over a year and had never been to a movie together, so it was fun. After grabbing our free movie passes we headed to see The social network (the movie about the youngest billionaire, who created Facebook) it was pretty good but nothing fantastic. As we walked into the movie theatre we were pleasantly surprised by Eric and his girlfriend Gillean. We topped off our night and enjoyed the movie with some snacks and friends. All in all a great night and a calm Saturday just got me more and more excited for our vacation to San Fran on Thursday. 5 more days!!

Kyle's Request

So after the last post, Kyle was a little more interested in the blog. First off he wondered where the "Just the two of us" was for him and Lucy. So I took a little video of the two love birds together in there usual manner.

I don't know if it's weird that I am taping them, talking to my dog in that voice or singing "Just the two of us". Either way Lucy sat like this for 10 minutes and was over us by the end of the video. Still makes me laugh...weird dog humor.

Have you meet my anteater?

So Lucy got a haircut on Sunday and Kyle thinks that he has a future in dog grooming.... watch out Petsmart.... no one saw it coming...
Needless to say Lucy is getting a full body cut by the professionals on Saturday and she definitely resembles an anteater :-)

Just the two of us

Kings of Leon concert at Cricket

Amy got hitched :-)

My best friend since I was 9 months old tied the knot Labor day weekend. It was a long weekend that flew by fast filled with activity after activity, luckily someone else brought a camera to capture a few memories. We stayed with the Dycks and had a blast hanging out. They were finally able to meet the infamous Skyles :-) We hit up Old Chicago with Rachel and Luke on Friday and then the wedding events on Saturday, headed to a Twins game and dinner with the Nylanders on Sunday and then topped it all off with the State Fair Monday before we left.
It was sad to go but we will be back soon!! (especially with more weddings to come)
