I know it’s been quite a while since I’ve actually posted anything, but to be honest things have been really busy the last few months and I’ve been slacking on the blog so here’s a brief update of what’s been going on.
At the very end of spring, Ashley and Kyle got married!! It’s was such a special day and I’m so excited and happy for them!!!
The first of June, Chris and I headed to NYC for a weekend to enjoy the city and watch a game at Yankee Stadium in it’s last year. The trip was great, the Yankees won and we got to do a lot of fun things. Only problem was, we weren’t able to stay long enough and regretfully, I lost my camera with all my great pictures on the plane on our way back to BR. Oh well, guess that means we’ll just have to take another trip soon and thankfully Chris had gotten some fun pics as well.
After that my summer was spent trying to study for another crazy ARE test, then up to Michigan for one of Chris’s friends weddings. It was so much fun to spend a weekend in Michigan and see where Chris grew up and honestly, the weather couldn’t have been more perfect!
Of course, then we pretty much all know what happened next – that idiot Gustav came in and paid BR a serious visit. It definitely wasn’t a pleasant experience and by far the worst hurricane I’ve ever been through, but God was definitely looking out for all my friends and family, because thankfully none of us had any bad damage and we all made it through ok (with the exception of Chris’s car – poor thing). I was out of power for about 8 days, Chris was out about 10 and Ash and Kyle win the award for being out the longest – from Monday (day of the storm), until Friday of the following week!
Since Gustav, things have gradually been getting back to normal. I’ve been studying again and just finished taking MEP again. Now I’m going to start concentrating on doing a few things around the house and looking forward to an upcoming trip in mid-November to visit Janice, Ben, Natalie, Rachel and Samantha and Jason. I’m looking forward to it and can’t wait!
